Default ECS Blower/Meth & Texas speed headers 10.1@140 Mph !

Picked up my car from Ecs last week with the 3 mod set up and it made
701 rwhp and 620 rwtq through an 8 speed auto
Went to the track tonight for a few passes. I was running mt drag radials
And it ran real well. This thing pulls hard !! But still need to play with shift points so I'm sure it's got more in it
Here is the slip

great numbers and slip! I have to ask how is the A8 accepting this power? smooth shifts still? This seems to be a question i keep asking and no one can answer. Thanks!

The trans is handleing the power well. But we need better control of shift points. HP tuner is working on that.

I paddle shifted this run If I didn't it would tap the rev limiter

Nice job Brent, I would expect nothing less from a seasoned pro at the track.


Between early shifts and lack of full control of the trans tuning yet, I think this car has a 9.7 in it once that gets fully sorted out.

Congrats!

Had to be pulling like a F/train on the top end for that 60ft time with the MPH & a stock rear end gear. Dam get that 60 ft down some & the car will be in close to the mid 9,s with no problems..

It would be nice to get a new set of gears for these cars. What tire set up was on the car front & rear.. By the way some nice number on the rollers also... Robert

Very awesome resluts!

Which Mickey Thompson tires was it? I would think the P315/30R18 ET Street Radial would be kinda short at 25.5". I have the same wheels/tires on my C5 z06 and was considering moving them to the C7 but thought they would be too short.
