I was curious if they fabbed a plate to seal the charge pipe since they did not install a BOV. Just trace the charge pipe down from the intake down to the 90deg elbow the BOV should be right around there. If there is nothing there. Than that would explain the low #'s and slow spool.

at idle you should see 14.0-15.0 it will fluctuate, at wot you should see no more than 11.5 afr anything above that and your tearing up your engine.

Yes from what I heard excessive is a good tuner for ls1's if you dont mind about a 2-2 1/2 hr drive I would say go to Dynosport. But excessive is a good tuner as well. Not sure if they have done any sts kits.

Is there different piping for a m6 and an a4. I looked at pictures of installs and on the elbow there was a spot for the bov on mine its just a straight pipe.
