I am anxiously awaiting my S3 (was hoping it'd be here by now) but in the meantime, anyone see any gain from the porting? I did a search but came up with no clear cut answer.

Most said throttle reponse was greatly improved. But I also would like to see some improvement in ET or trap.

It'll going on my 98 Z28 M6 with FTRA, Heads/Cam/Bolt Ons/LS6 Intake...

Thanks.

I have an S3 on my car... Didnt get any track results unfortunately but gained 8 rwhp and 10 rwtq peak on the dyno, also had pretty good gains throughout the rpm band (5-10 rwhp and 10-15 rwtq depending on where in the powerband). My only other mods at the time were lid and catback. So 8 rwhp with very minor mods, should see even more with your stuff.

Thanks guys.

I'm on the phone with Shaner now, he's sharing some of his woes with me (family health issues) but hopefully he will get started on mine soon.

This guy has got some serious bad luck.

you MIIIGHT be able to see .10 or 1 mph but i doubt it. 10 hp doesnt always mean .1/1mph like everyone likes to say on the net.

Yeah, I was looking for a more realistic .05 ET and/or .5 mph on the 1320. I will still take that though!
