I went to Advanced and got a couple baselines on the C6. Robert and crew were great to work with.
I have an A6 with the 2.73 and NPP. Mods are a K&N CAI(Includes reflectix heat guard and propped shroud) and a 160T.
Baselines were made back to back and with the hood closed a few minutes after I arrived. 396whp and then 398whp/392tq! It was at 11.7::1 across all rpms. Explains the 119.5mph traps I guess.

My Z06 and your manual C6 do not necessarily both lose the same percentage of power in the driveline.
I don't necessarily lose 15% of my 505. If I had 605 would I lose 15% of that too???? How about 705 or 805......905 still 15% no matter what?????
No, I think not.
This thought about manuals losing 15% and autos 20% in the driveline, across the board, no matter what, is

Still waiting on Robert at Advanced Dyno(Vendor on this site) to send me the graphs, but like I said 11.7 A/F and power started to fall off around 6250rpms.
Why are we talking about LS2s in this thread?

driveline lubes?
Great numbers. They don't lie right?
Ignore the haters and don't even respond to the dumb comments.
Q: Have you changed out any of the lubricants from stock, motor oil, trans, or rear?
I just ordered 2 Q of the Amsoil severe duty 75W90 synthetic rear end oil w/ 4oz of the additive to ward off the rear end clunk. Figure it might help w/ power as well. Thoughts or experience?
