Default 05 C6 Lethal Racing Build

First off some info about the car - its a 2005 C6 A4. I bought the car wrecked for almost nothing thinking I would just fix it and sell it for a profit. Well all that went out the window when the mod bug bit me. I put headers, fast 102 and had a mail order tune which actually really woke the car up, this lasted about 2 months. Next step was dropping it off to Lethal Racing in Scott, la for a cam and tune.

I spoke to Shawn serveral times trying to decide on something and finally just gave him the lead to do his magic, he did a custom cam small enough that I could keep my stock converter for the time being and the car put down 431hp 433 tq. Overall the car ran great, drive-ability, performance, everything. First track outing I ran consistent 11.7s all night with the stock converter.

Fast forward 8 months and bigger plans. I added an RPM trans and 3600 converter then brought my car back to Lethal for a s/c kit and tune. Keeping all the mods I already put on the car with the addition of the Vortech kit my car now puts down 586hp 701tq. I'll be adding meth and pulley down one size in the next few weeks and hope for mid 600s.

So for anyone looking to have their car done by a professional shop I would seriously give Lethal Racing a call, txt, email. I've never had a problem getting in touch with them and always treated like my car was the only one in the shop by the entire crew.

here is a video of it in action. excuse the quality, ill post up a better one later tonight

Slow *** vette...

Lol, I wish we could get all these "my friend has a fast blah blah blah" to drag their *** to the track with us. Two black C6s killing everything around here.

Shawn, Nick, Mike and everyone else at Lethal do some legit work... some people around here are gonna make me build the bottom and turn the wick up and just turn 5+ car length wins into 5+ bus lengths.

If ya'll were closer, I could show up with the Z. If that's too slow I could bring your old bike-I think it would beat everything around.
