Default Finally heading to tuning tomorrow, lets play the guessing game

2011 GS A6

Longtubes with cats
ECS 1500SL
Restrictor plate installed
Alky Control
ECS Stage 1 Fuel
3.6" Pulley
10% OD
ID 1000s
Pump 93

After all of the headaches and issues I just want the car to run again and be able to drive it and enjoy it.

I know the dynojet is just a number but its fun guessing anyway.

I'm guessing 635.

Dear Lord I hope the belt doesn't break again.

Take the restrictor out. You have meth and fuel. You can always pop it in if its making to much boost, then open it up a little and keep making pulls.

My thinking was due to the 10% OD. But I was thinking about running it without it also and doing what you mentioned.

Matt Sorian is tuning it and he worked at ECS at one point so I have a lot of confidence in him.

removing the restrictor will make a significant difference. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone not running bigger injectors and meth, but you have that covered. Why leave free power on the table? Go for it.

705 rwhp without the restrictor.

Is 54K supposed to be a little or a lot? I'm closer to 200K, no restrictor, 3.25 pulley. Though E85+meth probably doesn't hurt

TBH I don't know whats considered a lot on these ls3's.

This is all new to me still. The fact you're going strong at 200k is awesome.

What made you go with a 3.25 instead of 3.6? How much boost and what HP are you at?

Started out with 3.5" w/ restrictor and kept going from there. Kept opening up restrictor then just took it out then went to smaller pulley (meth was added along the way then E85 also)

Not sure on HP, haven't had it on a dyno

14psi is the highest I've seen

Still running Z06 exhaust w/cats so that's probably holding back some, but I just can't take the no cats smell for whatever reason

Something like that I'd guess

Though my horrendous showing at 1/2 mile sure wouldn't support that
