Default Vararam only track times...GXP A6

Got 4 pulls in with the GXP last nite at KCIR. DA hovered around 1500.

First pass 13.24 @ 106.7 trans in std. auto mode
Second pass 13.22 @ 106.5 again trans in std. auto mode
Third pass 13.42 @ 105.6 trans in sport mode..hit the limiter @ gear changes
Fourth pass 13.17 @ 106.5 trans back in std. auto mode.

Previous best when 100% stock was a 13.4 @ 104. DA was 1600.

Anyway just sharing some Vararam only times. I think it was worth the $$$. I'm really looking forward to a small stall converter, headers and a tune.

Good stuff Collin. You'll love what a tune does for an automatic G8. Stay in touch.

Thumbs up Patrick G tune + Vararam?

Yep, I'd definitely like to see what the OP's G8 GXP A6 would run after Patrick G tuned the ECM/TCM with the Vararam already on the car.

Definite 12's, but I'd love to see how deep into the 12's....

Have to agree with getting a tune for the A6. I got mine from Livernois and made a nice difference.

I however got my best 1/4 times with it in sport mode letting it shift itself.

Then on road course I used sport mode manually shifting.
