First outing to the track last night
Headed out to the track last night for my first runs in the Vette. I purchased it from Ls1roc here on the forums. Great guy to deal with if you ever buy anything from. Anyway, ran a total of 4 passes and attached the best one. Here is the car and mod list
2008 A6
3200 Yank
Varam
Kooks 1 3/4
Kooks catted Mid
Magnaflow Catback
UDP
Ported TB
Tune
Need to work on the 60' some but I am happy with the results for my first outing

You'll be able to get the 60 down a little, but the 3200 yank does not hit hard at all.
Biggest mistake I ever made on my car was that 3200 yank. You should be able to get it down to the mid 1.6s though on a good night.
Other than that it looks like the car is moving out nicely. 123 for boltons is good

If you want it to dominate the strip you need the yank 3600 (if sticking with yank) which has a much more aggressive STR than the 3200.
The 3200 is excellent for street manners, produces little heat (I still don't have coolers in mine and run it all summer in Houston) and works great if you go with a blower later on.
It's a good converter, just not great for 60's

Thanks, I thought those were respectable times. I had numerous people come up to me asking if it was a Z06 and all were impressed. That last, and best, run was against a new 5.0 Stang with bolt ons. I had him covered at the 60' and put some real distance on him in the back half. He had me pull over at the time shack for an interrogation lol. You can see on the slip I had him by .85 and he was a little upset
