I drove one today.. I love it, feels like a BMW...with ***** lol.. TuneTime Performance owner got his yesterday and dyno'd it on a Mustang Dyno, put down 285/296 i believe (31mi on it).... and the race begins, who'll be the first tuner with a G8 in the 11's lol... best of luck with it, i for one am waiting for my TBSS to go back next year before i hopefully score the "new" 400 HP version... i would say it felt like a 13.30 car from my interaction with it.. my TBSS went 13.5's stock and this felt quicker.. (or maybe the 6spd auto playing games with the SOTP meter?)
ps did you notice that emblem on the dash?? "first 888"

found out this evening it was 289 HP i was off by a few, and as someone pointed out already it was a Mustang Dyno but i also found out it was a full tank of 87 octane so that makes more sense of those numbers (friend started tuning it and notice the KR right away without adding any timing).. I was impressed by its acceleration with our FAT asses in it and a full tank (87 oct as well) so it will be a low 13second ride with just a little tuning (imo)

Thanks guys, that is actually my car. We are working hard to find all the power we can with this thing. We had it on the dyno already but it was on the gas the dealer ship and fellows down under left us.
Tick performance has already gave us a hand with figuring out what type of thermostats these use, underdrive pulleys they take, etc. We plan on having Tick install a sleeper or stealth cam in it to really wake it up.

You guys are going to have some fun with the G8 like us aussies did down here. So far there have been 2 cars run 11's bolt ons only
and one cam + bolt ons ran a 10.8.You are pretty close with the stock times as mine did 13.4 bog stock untuned but that was the best time I have seen from an A6 VE/G8 .
It now runs 12.0's.
They are a good bit of gear and it will be interesting to see how you guys get on with em.
cheers
