Default 2009 A6 CTS-V tune results

This is a totally stock 09 V, automatic, down to the paper air filter.
The dyno graph shows baseline pull vs tuned pull.
Nothing too aggressive, but nice gains everywhere.
The owner reports the car feels great, between the new power and improved TCM programming.

We'll be retuning the car later this week with a pulley and CAI, stay tooned....

Mike,
Nice work, as always!!
Need to do you part to keep the V2 ahead of the 2012 M5, which will have 578 HP/530 TQ.
Take care, and be sure to post when a certain C5 TT gets some dyno time.

You know we'll do our part my friend. Johan and I are in agreement that the new V is the greatest thing happening in Detroit these days, so it will get the love it deserves!

Manual or Auto?

Be sure to post up after the mods to see how they compare

Thanks

Do you offer any handheld tuners for the CTS V Coupe? What could I expect HP and Trq just with a CAI and tune?

Thanks

Only handheld I have heard of for our cars is from Jessee. He says he has to do quite a bit of work on them to make it work.

The tune results you see here will represent the gains available from the Trinity tuner once we add support for these Gen2V models.

The plan is to develop a full line of calibrations, including pulley tunes, that will be readily available in the Trinity handheld/monitor device.

Thanks
