Seems there were some data logs taken and the other RS6 owners went running to hide.

There is a new beast in town and its silver. Avus silver exactly.

I had to switch the springs in my diverter valves from green to yellow this afternoon. The car shifted from 3rd to 4th at about 100mph and the valves failed to hold the boost. It scared the crap out of me, the car fell flat on it's face. I happened to be logging at the time, no other problems, that's the only scenario I could think of.

I had to change my protection in my earlier years due to the same issue..The thin ones just couldn't hold the boost...LOL

I acquired a Eurocharged tuned ECU via SAF. Coupled with the MTM TCU I soldered in last week the car is a monster. It was pulling 430 g/s, which
equates to about 538hp (rule of thumb math, not to be confused with fact).

^ Sweeeet! Now we need to see some 0-60 time logs..You might need to let your wife drive it though so it can reach its' full potential- LOL

Next week I'll be obtaining some dyno logs and will share (if they are worthy)...Otherwise- I'll creep back into the night. I certainly don't have the most powerful as I've seen some others post their monsters (i.e. Grizz, etc..). I'm just doing it to add to the TMS adventure- in order to kill some time before finding a golf course to chop some weeds before the TMS event..Also, it will provide some good info to see if I may have some issues that I don't realize through the butt dyno..

Congrats Pat and I bet it is a completely new ride!

I took did a few 0-60 runs today. I don't think the actual numbers mean anything, but it's the improvement that I like. I dropped .5 sec.
here's stock:

Thanks, I'm definitely more than pleased with the tune, I had no idea it would make this much of a difference.

It is kick a$$ that you have the SECOND ECU with the FLASH on it....

I recently had the MTM TCU installed and it performs as earlier described by the pioneers. Quicker shifts and puts you in full control of the gear selection. I only wished I had done it 125K miles ago...

Hmmm- You mean would rather have reliable brakes than muffler exhaust tones? What kind of priorities to you have??? J/k

I'll hang on to them for a couple of months before offering to anyone else as I'm in no hurry. They are safely stored away in the shed and is rigged to blow upon illegal entry- The protection system will probably destroy the shed but will be worth the price to see "alleged" thief turned to dust- and as a deterrent to others to not walk on our grass or date my daughter...I already have two Ak47's at my disposal that I will be cleaning in the leaving room when the first young man comes to the house with love in his eyes. I assume he'll be one talking canary to sing the siren song to the other testerone bags sniffing around that "MAX is CRAZY!!!"- Dang straight!

Why not just throw the pads on to keep from pins grooving those rotors. What was spec on the rotor thickness?

It certainly feels like it.

Now I know why my wife screamed at me the other night when I got on it. Sitting in the passenger seat is a totally different perspective than in the drivers seat. Looking down at the computer when you got on it all of a sudden I felt like Forrest Gump in the dorm room scene with Jenny -- "I feel dizzy". It was down right scary. I just love these cars. I think if you find a flatter less bumpy road your 0-60 times will come down a notch more. It can't help going uphill slightly especially with an extra 300+ lbs for two passengers. :)

Sways feel great with the new end link now -- thanks! Wagners are in customs in Louisville, KY and should get released tomorrow I hope. Still looking at Wednesday for delivery. I may even have to go back to the yellows from the greens after that. Logged both springs before and not any real difference at the time on my car with comparable boost.

For sure. I can't imagine going with any other tune after seeing what this thing does for mid-range power and torque. No other tune makes this kind of power where it counts. Just driving around normally and tapping the loud pedal to pass on the freeway can be almost scary.
