Erik, I wanted to start a Thread with what RS6 owners have done to there cars and what Gains they have made. At the top of the Thread if we can have the User name along with his Make and model of the car (RS6) and then what is 0-60 is , 1/4 mile and Top MPH. I know there are not many cars but its something to look forward to to see how much better one car is over the other.. Just a thought...

Choose test points. Example, I dont know of many RS6 owners that have tested top speeds. With 75mph speed limits on US highways not many of us want to wear pink underwear in jail. Ditto on 1/4 mile drag times. I would say 15 owners have drag raced their cars at any given time.

0-60
60-100

That is a start

Here is what i proposed


Audi street vehicle Performance list.
<O:pScroll down to see 1/4 mile, 0-60, 60-100 mph and standing mile lists.

When comparing the below numbers, please keep in mind that variances in temperature, humidity, track conditions, and driver ability, can all have a significant impact on the data.

For those that don't follow 1/4 mile drag racing; E.T. (Elapsed Time) is primarily a derivative of the launch, while Trap Speed (MPH achieved at the end of the run) is primarily a derivative of the amount of power being put to the ground on that specific track, that specific day. Trap Speed can be used tell you almost exactly how much hp your car is making at the wheels, assuming you use the correct calculations.

If you'd like a Audi C5 or C6 run to be added to the list, please provide proof of the run. Only 1/4 mile times from timeslips and/or video (preferably both) will be accepted for this list. No GPS based, datalogger 1/4 mile times will be accepted.


1/4 mile E.T.'s/Trap Speeds:

Audi C5 RS6 / Audi C6 RS6:
In order of E.T.:
11.00 @ 110.00 – EXAMPLE
11.10 @ 109.25 - EXAMPLE

Audi C5 RS6 / Audi C6 RS6:
In order of Trap Speed:
114.55 - EXAMPLE

GPS based performance computer/accelerometer times (V-Box, Drift Box or Performance Box )

PLEASE NOTE: Only GPS based, datalogger times from V-box equipment (Drift Box, Performance Box, or V-Box) will be accepted for this list. No extrapolated times from 1/4 mile time-slips. Also, all submitted data must be reviewed for accuracy
*NOTE: The maximum allowed downhill slope over the course of the run is 3.00%. Any run that exceeds 3.00% will not be posted on the list.

0-60 mph / 96.56 kph<O:p


4.40 - PALETTE / C5 RS6 / Stock
4.55 - ??????? / C5 RS6 / EUROTUNE


60-100 mph / 96.56 - 160.94 kph<O:p

I don't know about this P-box gadget. If my logic is correct, your 0-100 times are 10.3, and your quarter mile time is 13.2 @ 105, so your 100-105 time is 2.9? I think the P-box is ridiculously optimistic, unless you're doing your runs downhill.

Just checked my file. 100-105 is actually 1.12 on a 1.6% decline. Look at my post above showing the Pbox. I went from 50-70 in 2.2 sec. Why is it so hard to believe? You're already moving? It's what I am used to using. I understand what Vagcom is and I just bought it too, but how can it really tell you what your real world performance is? Can it tell you what your 1/4 mile and trap speed is? Performance box is a satellite.

That's the reason I am not, and have never been, a big dyno number guy...just starts trouble. A Dyno is a TOOL that shows progression. All that matters is the difference between the number you start with and the number you end with.

Oh and all those performance numbers above were not all from the same run or runs, they are the best of all my attempts...

ttboost
December 4th, 2010, 03:34
On the other forum Palette and I hang out on, the Performance Box is pretty much the only acceptable tool to measure performance (other than time slips for trap speed), so EVERYONE has the SAME TOOL to measure performance. It has a 1 foot rollout "check box" to help with 1/4 mile times. It is usually within a tenth at the dragstrip. Trap speed on the P box is effected by the 1 foot rollout, that's why the other forum requires a time slip for trap speed. The data cannot be "fudged".

Aren't all calculations b-c where b doesn't equal 0 a snapshot during your acceleration anyway. You do 0-150. You calculate how long it takes you to get from 60-130 during that acceleration run. What pat is getting at is why did your p-box say your 0-100 was 10.3 and then it takes you another 2.9 to go another 5 mph?

Again, guys ...as I said, these numbers in post #24 were NOT all from the same runs. These are my BEST attempts at each measure. I realize you guys use Vagcom here. Can someone go out and use the Vagcom and tell me what the 100-105 is with a stock car? I am more than willing to let someone use my Performance Box to test their car.

JSRS6
December 4th, 2010, 03:59
Do you understand the point I am getting at though? Assuming your 1/4 mile is correct, and I believe it is, your 0-100 would have been higher, like 12s. If you did indeed get a 10.3 0-100 on another run, add 2s on the VERY conservative side and you just ran a 12.3 1/4 stock. But I would be happy to use your p-box on my car, purely for scientific purposes mind you ;-)

THE PBOX is the most accurate GPS based Performance meter around and it is within .01 accurate on all my 1/4 miles passes in my Porsche so i would take a Pbox reading over anything else.

I just ordered a Vag com tool and i can probably predict it is not anywhere near a tool for measuring performance as the Pbox, If a Pbox is used for all sorts or Motorsport racing i would bet my last dollar thatit is more accurate then the Vagcom that runs off the OBD2 port.

OK first of all, you guys are reading WAY too much into the numbers, and by that I mean you still are comparing them to each other. However, let me just add this. The picture of my Pbox, is just that. I forgot to push the card in, that's why I took a picture. That run could have (a probably was) a 10% decline (likely wasn't paying attention to where I was running). I just reviewed all my Pbox logs and compared to my timeslips. My best 0-100 (out of my (3) 1/4 mile runs is 11.62, where we KNOW it was perfectly flat, which admittedly is WAY slower than 10.3. To be fair, I had never done a 0-100 in this car before, so had no idea this was out of whack. There is a consistant 2-3 tenths difference between Pbox and timeslip. I know that is due to the rollout, that's why the Pbox 1/4 mile times are a little less than accurate, compared to a timeslip. MPH is usually higher too because of the rollout. Sorry for the confusion and I hope this clarifies my post. (I guess I can't go back and edit it?)

I think a PBox type of product is how most cars are measured in magazine's and testing. I have reservation on whether the first few milliseconds are measured with a device like this. This is why if you simply do a count-down and then go, you will likely get a higher result. Also, the VAGCOM likely uses the speedometer input to read these number while keeping a timestamp, hence there is zero delay in the reading. This is also likely why 0-60 numbers from testing magazines like motortrend as well as manufacturers report such impressive numbers. Just that the difference between a PBox and VAGCOM is not apples-to-apples.

I think it they are great devices for assessing progress on performance modifications, and the results are more that welcomed for me. I will love to hear how you guys (ttboost, and pallette) do using the same device after a some mods.

BTW, when is this going to be made a sticky? :)

Well... The deal was that we need Numbers in here and no one has been posting data so that is a good reason why Eric has not done it yet.

I posted my 0-60, as far as other we will have to wait and see. if not then i guess this will be a Dead thread... :(

Yup shame. The other problem I see is that there is no acccepted method of performance on this forum and everyones numbers will be scrutinized rather than accepted, which is fine, if you care....just my .02...If everyone posts there improvements, rather than the actual "numbers", maybe that would be more informative? For example rather than say XXX tune gave me 420whp on abc dyno, say that xxx tune gave me a 60whp increase or 3/10's of a second improvement 0-60? Posting dyno numbers is usually asking for trouble as most take it as gospel. I baselined all of my performance measures with a Performance Box, as that is what I am used to. VERY consistant and if everyone uses it, there are no variables, like dyno's etc...When I mod my car, I will again measure my performance with my Pbox and post my increases. I posted my stock dyno numbers in another thread for informative purposes and they are way lower than most I have seen here, but my stock 0-60 is right where everyone elses seem to be?

4 pages and still not much data?

Pbox? I have no idea

Vagcom, data logs and butt dyno are all I have. If the car is fast and running as designed with good looking data logs. I'm good, car is happy and I pity the fool on the road that wants up that onramp faster then me.

There is a check box for a 1ft rollout for standing start measurements. I leave mine checked all the time as I've seen that it makes no difference if you start rolling.

I tried to start a similar thread for "benchmark" testing numbers, but it died as well. Like Dave said, when the cars are running well, (mine at least) they just get driven and enjoyed. I haven't done any timed runs since removing my cats, I'm hoping to break the 4 second barrier. Unfortunately, It probably won't happen until spring.

.....Do you remember your 0-60 stock?

I have no clue as to stock. I did the APR on a whim when I was headed to a track event. I could switch it to the stock map, but the car is no longer stock in some other aspects. However; the butt dyno noticed a great difference on the first spin out of the APR shop. I had just driven the car about 8 hours to their shop, they put the chip in- and my oh my what a difference. Certainly pricey but I needed something to burn some $$ on..LOL. Without the bone stock numbers- I have no clue as to the deltas as you all have been discussing.

Those are the old Eurocharge numbers. Gen 1 flash.

I will try to make some runs this weekend. Way too busy this week with 75 degree sunny days and little white balls to chase.

Max performed full Vagcom data logs on his APR tune and trust me that sucker is bad fast. It does not surprise me he clicked 4.0 0-60s.

Yep, Randy's car is a monster, I would not want to tangle with it on the freeway. He has pretty much every supporting modification that you can bolt on (intercoolers, full Milltek, etc.).

For those people with more than 1 "performance" vehicle, (that care to log performance) the Pbox can be used on anything and everything. Vagcom is only good for the Audi...I have no problem with people using the Vagcom to track vehicle performance, as long as they are consistant. HOWEVER, it's obviously not fair to compare to other vehicles NOT using this, which is the point. That is why we use the Pbox, on the "other" forum, as EVERYONE is using the same tool to record performance on ALL of our vehicles.
