CORRECTED Dyno Results Within!
As it turns out, the 404 rwtq number was a false reading caused by a spike. :cry :D
The correct peak rwtq number was 355.
Well, I finally got the heads and LS6 manifold installed and the car dyno-tuned.
It made 388 rwhp and 355 rwtq. Not too shabby for an A4 car with a "baby" cam! :thumbs:
I didn't need any dyno numbers to know the car was making a lot more power. I only "thought" the car was fast before. It's scary fast now! :D
Even in 3rd gear, when I touch the throttle now, the car pushes you back in your seat. Before, with those tall 3.15 gears, it didn't really have much till the motor hit about 4000 rpm. Now the car pulls HARD from under 2 grand right to the 6500 rpm redline! :cheers:

Nice numbers XTrooper. I have a coupe with an A4 and the 3.15 axle. I was thinking about doing a cam, which cam did you go with?
A custom grind. See sig for specs.

I'm waiting for Mike to scan in the dyno sheet for me. As soon as I get an image file, I'll upload and post it.
