    I can't no. The reason I can't is because I have never had an actual dyno test on my car. My statement is based upon mathematical calculation for covering a certian distance with a set mass (car plus driver). You would need to be pushing 550-600 crank horsepower to push 4400+- down the quarter mile in mid to high 11s. Trap speed a nominal 116-118mph. If I recall correctly, the Sportec car was trapping 120-122 or something like that with similar tims because it couldn`t hook up. With the recent mods that will be tougher to get traction.

    To the OP, read this:

    ...and then this:

    ...and then tell us if any of that sounds familiar.... (I know it does to many of us...)
    Skimmed it, didnt find anything of interest. Same information I found and what was posted here. Looks like by the same people too.

    You kinda answered it there. Your talking crank hp. Im after awhp. thats easily 100awhp+ difference.

    Im sorry did you say sportec car couldnt hook? how is that possible with less than 600awhp? what was that car on? skinny old tires?

    And here I thought that the experiences of another actual owner of one of these cars, who also did or planned to do much of the work himself (like you), who also had the EXACT SAME GOALS in mind as you, and who protested when this group informed him of the difficulties he'd likely encounter, who then encountered EXACTLY THE SAME difficulties that had been predicted and then finally gave up on the project might prove informative to you...

    My bad.

    Informative sure. But i didn't see him build close to what i was looking for. Unless he actually started building a turbo swap and all and i missed it. Then in that case i will go back and check it.

    You guys have said it yourself this forums gets enough of these type of thread so why spend the time rereading the same comment about how it can't be done unless you have 20k+ and at that point your better off with a different car.

    If your trying to build something new time should be spent on figuring out how to do that now how another person got discurrage and gave up.

    To be honest You should do intercoolers, downpipes and an e85 tune. You will love it. Dont know why nobody has gone e85 on the rs6. Especially the 6 speed guys.

    Thank you...apparently my point is lost on everyone else here...

    To the OP...
    Through ALL of my posts, the ONLY point I was trying to make, is that you are NOT the first one to try to build a street monster out of a RS6. The rest of "us" decided, after seeing this engine out a few times, that it isn't, and won't be worth the effort. That's it. MY opinion...and that's all I was sharing, because I've been there...

    AGAIN, good luck on your project...you sound like you really want to move forward...
