Real nice times there.

That 60' is impressive, especially if you're still on RF's.

Did you re-tune after the Z06 exhaust? What was the DA in November and with this run? Fixing to have the same mods myself on my A6, 2.73. I have the Z06 manifold and cats ready to go on.

Great times! Hope I can do as well.

Dont know the DA, but the temp. was in the low 50s.
I cut the Z06 H pipe behind the balance tube & use
2&half to 3 in reducers & the rear half of the stock
mid pipe, came out real nice.

Something like this. I also ground the 2 1/2" factory pipes so that I have a tapered entry where the flow enters. If you leave it sharp as in just cutting the tubes flow will be restricted with sharp edges.
