Default Almost a 9-sec pass

Hey guys, I went out on Saturday to run my 15 C7Z at the drag strip now that my tuner has played with the torque management in the ECU (he didn't touch the trans). I have a CAI, x-pipe, 2.3 upper pulley, PTB and tuned on E50. I ran a new PB of 10.09 at 137.4 with a 1.46 60'! The car launches SO much harder it's incredible. The previous best 60' was a 1.56. Night and day difference. So much fun!

What I didn't say is the car in the left lane is my buddy and his 16 C7Z with a Halltech CAI and DR's. Kinda fun to see the difference my mods have made. I felt a little bad gapping him quite so bad. Just a little bad.

Great run! Is your buddy's car an A8 & what CAI are you running?

Those posts always make me laugh. My car has only gotten faster with every mod. I data log and drag race a fair amount. I would know if I was losing power. Thanks man.

To be fair, my car is now custom tuned, but even before it was tuned, I never got any slower at the track. I would def see my mph fall off

I had my car dyno tuned on E50 once I had the flex sensor installed and it was 'only' 630/630 on a dynojet. Pretty sure my car has more power than that based on my 137.4 at the track? Just sayin.
