    Could you do this with specific car? sure if its a classic/rare. or you got a really good deal on the purchase. Shoot you loose money as soon as you take the dam car off the lot.




    I think you definitely got that point across. In this thread and other thread that ive seen you post in and I do get what your saying. I'm just not one to get convinced by groupthink. Just because you guys have decided its not worth it doesn't mean its not worth it to me or someone else.
    Besides if I dont try ill just keep wondering so I rather try it and if I fail oh well I guess ill do what the rest of you guys are doing. better to try than not all.

    It's all good. Have fun...enjoy your project...

    2 door sports car. Could go faster in a corvette for less money. Isn’t that your logic?

    A few comments:

    1: Yes, about right I'd guess for a high-mileage 2013.
    2: You'll likely spend that much or more in your attempt to get your RS6 to that level of performance
    3: Straw man argument. You already did American muscle, so clearly the RS6 had/has something you liked. My guess is that you thought it would be cool to have a relative "sleeper" of a not-too-pricey AWD German sedan that would kick butt and take names. My point is that a C7 S6 is a much better starting point for such a project.
    4: All of that said, I understand the attraction of the RS6's low price of entry, flares and stance, and I wish you nothing but the best. I'll be watching this space for your progress.

    More importantly for this thread, how much $$$ have you spent above and beyond the price of the car to get it to this level?

    Yes and No. I didn't buy it as a drag car...but I take everything I own to the strip at least once. I've owned 6 corvettes in my life...I'm good. I've been a Chevy guy since I was a kid. As soon as I bought my first European car, I was hooked. I made the mistake a few years ago and bought a CTS-V, thinking, hey Cadillac, quality, right? Nope. Same crap. Finally caved and bought the car I really wanted...couldn't be happier...

    I was forced to go built motor due to my last tuner being a complete retard. (JHM). Don’t let him tune your car for e85 he doesn’t understand AFRs on e85.

    that being said it would be a lot cheaper and still probably pretty safe on a stock motor. Numbers coming soon.

    Good luck with it. It's nice to see the car get back on the road. Clearly, it's in the right hands for tuning

    are you making a claim that stock engine can handle 890awhp?

    Thats a lot for being stock.

    I did the import thing, American muscle thing, old school swap thing.
    I dont really care for "sleeper" thing, I just want AWD turbo V8 in a car.
    I realized that AWD is what I want since all I do is DD and I got annoyed with traction issues and running DR in the rain.(not to mention handling sucks on a DR)

    I really think this base is really good. I mean 4k for rs6(with broken trans) how much cheaper do you guys want for a base?
