car goes like a bat out of hell too....11.74 ET @120.83 with a few bolt-ons (cai, headers, tune, DR's). It is still quite well mannered on the street and my runflats can handle it too, even from a dig. Plan on taking your car to the strip?

Interesting. I had an engine tune only (no A6 tranny tuning) and my

WOT on the 1-2 shift the vehicle has a traction issue and with all nannies off require a bit of steering input to stay in my lane... But I have never managed to be able to pack more than 35 to 40 percent throttle out of the hole on Rf's . Your car should be more pissed than mine. Care to share you throttle modulation secret to leaving hard from a dig as I need all the help I can get...came from a high 480 hp terminator so I know how to pedal the car but my ford was on dr's 100 percent of the time. I can't seem to play nice with my rf's hopefully the invo's act different On moderate throttle out of the hole.

also on base coupe. With motor tune only on the change the tires would talk a bit, but not a full back end is trying to step out game like now. the 1 to 2 with nannies off require counter steer a bit ha ha it's nuts. need to sample alternate tires to see if issue continues. my rf's are old and perhaps hard as cement . As you can tell i'm not a huge fan of them at all

I had my tranny tweaked too. The shift times were moved down so it will shift faster. I have an a4 so I also had the valve body ported since I dont have the luxury of you a6 guys do with the fully tuneable tranny. Im going to the track hopefull next week and Ill have some improvements to report.
