View Full Version : Knocking on 11's door...

So I drove it to the track last night and just wanted to floor it on the first pass before I got it up on the converter... just to see what it would do on the E85 street map .... so she clicked off a solid 12.0 at 117!
So close to 11’s so then the next pass I try to brake boost/2 step the car and she bucks twice at the line but still runs another 12.0... I was pissed! The stock TCU needs fixed because it likes to intervene to try to save the stock converter, which as you know I don’t have anymore haha.
Moving on to the 3rd pass (heat soaked at this point) it bucks again but not as bad as we were trying to fool the TCU in the tune and dial that in on this pass, another 12.0.....
Right as a new map is made for the 4th pass it starts to rain.... I was so cock blocked... ugh.
I believe this is the full weight auto record mph but I would love to find other full weight cars to compare it too.
It’s still got a lot left in it so hopefully it gets the auto record really soon, hopefully full weight. (Other than lighter wheels, deleted secondary rads, sai crap...) That’s all I’m after dammit!

Thanks man! I’ve cut 1.7 60’s before, but I have to manually do it before TCU causes rpm/car to bounce. I had him set the 2 step around that RPM which fixes the bounce issue but as soon as you let off the brake it bucks haha.
Heading to the track again tomorrow. Should be around 75 degrees, race map is loaded :)
If only TCU could be remotely tuned :(

3 mph off from 6 speed record......
I had to pull out of Waterfest 1/4 mile, but will make it to the track with mine once the Beadle tune is finalized. Although I'm on stock turbos and fueling, I'm interested to see what antilag + NLS will net me.
Props man!

It usually helps get these pigs off the line ;)
I'm curious as well, would also be cool to see a stock turbo car on E85 as well.

Hey Corbett, your sig says: "2004 Sportec RS600 + 6MT + e85 Fastest RS6 in the USA".
More info on that?
Thx!

That was the first hit, Managed a 11.4 on the next pass... now all I’m after is being the first in the 10’s and that 127 supposedly on the nitrous car :)

Fuck its about time! only been 5 years! I will have to go back now! Why did you delete all your social media?
I've had great luck blending my own ATF on a number of 5HP24's in the RS6. Better shifting and less slippage. Three cars have run many years longer than expected, and still going strong. Two were supposed to be 6speed swaps.
What ATF do you currently use?

Nice job, really impressive! Are you running the stock airbox and maf's?

Nevermind, I see your other thread with the custom intake. Looks good!

This car is on that special blend of BND trans fluid. :)
The intake works pretty well, haven’t out flowed the stock maf’s yet! Use to have a 4” maf setup but it was just too complicated and didn’t need it.
Heading to the track again today :)

A few tweaks tonight but I’m pretty much out of turbo at this point :(
I could take some weight outta the car and put it in the 10’s but I really don’t want too... ugh
Beat my last MPH slip thoooo

Every 100# is a tenth, isn't that the rule of thumb?

Give or take... so what's an easy 500-600lbs?
Catback, spare tire, front and rear seats with only a lighter driverseat in place, 3 gallons of E85 for one pass, We gotta be pretty close.

The dry iced intercooler nitrous car is above me now lol... even tho that's an international unregulated airstrip time, its still a goal ;)
I'm coming for that spot ;)

This is very deep thread search but have you tried the Dhall1 tried and true and tested "spray the Intercooler with water before launch" trick?

Yep, MY MPH makes this a 10 sec car as you can see with most of those and also the s6/7/rs7 guys but this trans doesn't shift instantly like those cars haha.
We still need to mod the TCU some more for my set-up. I have a few different options left on the table for this car to reach that 10 sec barrier, it's just the TCU don't wanna let her eat ;)

Thats mostly an issue for pump gas cars. I'm on E85. Wouldn't do much for me... that and the track guys hate water downs ;)

Finally got around to charging the A/C again! Lol
This car is still for sale! I have reached my goals with this platform and will be moving on to another Audi build.
Will consider trades for a stocker and some cash as I would love to keep an RS6 around!
If your our interested in this please send a PM, In order to be the first 10 second C5 it’s going to need more trans tune work! I have a few solutions and will point you in the right direction.
