Numbers are in: 388.37 RWHP @ 6200RPM, 363.42 TQ. Just shy of the 400HP goal, but I'm sure it is going to be a blast to drive!!!!

I can't remember of you're an A4 or M6? Was this on a dynojet?

Looks pretty good for cam only. How long did it take for them to get the car tuned? Only tuned on the dyno, or did they do any street tuning? You got the car back yet? If so, is she a different animal?

I get it back tomorrow. Just dynotuned to my knowledge, but they were aware of my driving habits. I have an extra PCM, so I could always have Frost do an alternate tune for me if I don't like the Speed Inc. setup.

Well, I have had it for a few days now, and I'm extremely pleased. It drives great, its super smooth and sounds awesome. Probably the only thing that I'm worried about is it being too loud on cold start in the AM, but it settles down pretty quickly. Here is a semi-warm start vid...

It actually sounds really tame to me. I guess I'm just used to my dumped duals. What happened to the CCW's?

I still have them, I just don't run them this time of year (salt). The video is not really indicative of how it truly sounds...especially at cold start. I need to get underneath and tighten some of the exhaust brackets...I think driving it a few days combined with the hot/cold cycles have caused it to loosen just a tad. I also have a MAF code that I have always had come back to rear its ugly head, so I need to figure that out once and for all. I was hoping that the build combined with some new 02 sensors would clear it up, but no luck. It must be a short in the ENG SEN circuit somewhere. Stinks because I'm pretty sure its causing the car to run rich at the moment.

That is the reason I'm running an open loop speed density tune right now. I got so sick and tired of the o2 sensor codes.

Congrats on the numbers. The car looks awesome and now has a little beef to back up the looks.

Who set up the SD tune for you? Someone local?

So I swapped MAF's and put a new fuse in. Drove it gently about 20 or so miles and no code returned. I got on it a bit, and felt a bit of hesitation. Checked for the code and sure enough, there it was (P0102). So it seems that it is blowing the fuse under heavier than normal load, and it is definitely a significant overload...the fuse is blown hard, not just a filament break. Perhaps its a vacuum issue, or maybe unmetered air?

Thats right where it should be. That Magaflow is pretty quiet. A good set of heads would put you way over 400.

Honestly I wish it were a bit more quiet on cold start, I don't want to upset the neighbors, lol. After it has warmed up, its just about perfect for my tastes.

That's what I'm afraid of, lol. Although I would likely need a sticky tire to blow it up.

^Lol I just sold my 10 bolt last week to make some room in the garage, and I agree, with street tires I think your fine.
