Finally Boosted
I have a LS2 A6 and I finally had my ECS Novi1500 installed on my car. Previously my car had a baby cam and headers. I took it to CMS and had them install the supercharger for me and they did a great job. On a Mustang dyno my car made 570 RWHP/532 RWTQ at 10 PSI.

Yeah I agree, first time working with them after seeing them working on my friends cars. Great guys!
I think my next mod will either be Methanol or E85 Flex Fuel, what do you guys think?

If there is nothing wrong with the A6 now - don't touch it. Add an external cooler for the fluid and call it good.

Look at my original ECS build thread - it's in there. There is also a thread in the C6 Tech section that a few other members added input about their external transmission coolers.

Is yours an A6 C6 ? LS2?
I'm pretty happy with my engine temps, looking at an average of 180-190
