Ok so what are they doing to your car? Cam and Heads? would be my guess since it is taking a week to complete.

I hope you brought them Breakfast.....

I know you are looking for 400+ RWHP.

My guess with stock gears on a MN6 you will be around 405 range. Give or take a few. My only reasoning for this is that with my setup I pulled 443 RWHP, but I have the AFR heads with 4.10 gears. If I did not have the 4.10 gears then I would have seen about 455 rwhp. Assuming that AFRs are giving 50 rwhp then you should end up at 405.

though I have to admit it is all guessing work to me and I would not be surprised to see 390 range. EG with his stock gears on an A4 pulled 387 rwhp with the same size cam. His though was a conservative tune.

either way you ar going to love the power. At first you will think what the heck did I get in to because the car runs different than stock, but that feeling goes away quickly. right now I feel as if my car is just stock with a few extra ponies (oh and some added sound)...

Have fun with it. remember there is no break in period with a new cam. Just let it warm up accordingly or you could break a spring....

BTW - if it is a MN6 throw some 4.10s and a RPS clutch on that baby and then you will no what acceleration is.....
