.3-.4 untuned would be my non-benchracing experience guess. But to the rice crowd, 2 seconds.

What kind of catback are you going to be running with it? Is it an ORY?

not sure if its an ORY, i ordered it from speedinc
it just said y pipe, o2 extensions, o2 sims.
it'd be badass if i did have those gains w/o tuning, i really wanna run low 13's, maybe 12's if i can borrow some slicks
Right now i have the Borla catback, which i like the sound, but i cant wait to hear it after the install...

probably 20hp at most tuned, your car is pretty stock so it isn't going to help as much as a cammed car.

What plate is in your borla now? I have the borla and am curious as to how it will sound with ORY, open plate and LTs so let me know what she sounds like when you get it installed. Thanks!

Look in the passenger tailpipe if you can see through it it doesnt have the pipe if you see a piece of metal about a foot down then it has the plate in.

I would say about 2 tenths. in the winnter about 5 tenths but since its an M6 would say you won't gain much without good tires. Too much power for the wheels. good tires and I say you will hit 13.00 's . If you hit a 12 in El Paso I will congratulate you myself since I have only seen myself do twelve's in El Paso with only Bolt on's. And That was with an A4
