How much RWHP to expect from ECS Supercharger?

Good question,
I have done 3.15 gears with the A6 and a 2800 stall and the car felt awesome! Although it did have drag radials, or an aggressive BFG (dont remember sorry) but the car hooked well and was/is very fast. I wish it was owned by a track guy, it probably would have gone low tens/ high nines.
I like the aggressive feeling to the car with the converter myself, some people feel they are "loose", it all opinion so you should drive a car that has that mod before doing it yourself.
hope that helps.

The restrictor plate is similar to the ones they have under the carbs in NASCAR. It allows you to run a smaller pulley to make boost faster but it limits the max boost you would make with that pulley. So if you have an ECS kit and need some quick power, just remove the restrictor plate.

UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't have the exact numbers but the tuner said she made between 530-540 RWHP! COMPLETELY stock car other than flowmaster mufflers. I'm shocked! THANK YOU ECS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think you should specify that removing that plate is going to require a new tune. Making comments like that is going to make someone with a plate decide it'd be a good idea to go yank it off real quick, and see what 670+whp feels like. I think you would agree it doesn't work like that.

ECS (thanks thegame - was typing too quickly while leaving work!) did great work on my 06Z06. With the following equipment installed, I recently made 670 rwhp (up from 415ish rwhp stock - arguably way low for a stock Z06) and 650ish rwtq (up from 399 rwtq stock - again low for stock):
ECS SC600
AR headers
Alky kit
Simply incredibly what they did and how they did it! I highly recommend you give Chris or Doug at call at ECS.
