I did check one out, forgot where the second is. The one on C & L looks promising, need to actually go out there one night with a few cars and test it.

Mike is putting together a combo very similar to yours.

Hahaha....if you look at the positives our tunes will be just about the exact same.

/\ Actually it will be pretty interesting to see the real difference in person between an M6 and an A4, as you two are so similar in setup it would be a good comparison.

I havent even tried launching since the new motor. Im scared the 10 bolt is going to go kaboom, if I do stick with the stock suspension. I doubt the 285's will hook, eh I guess we'll see.

The 10 bolt will be fine, without suspension it won't hook hard enough to break it. Mine's lasted after being launch on DR's with ~450whp on spray.

For how long Scott? haha. I talked to James last night and he said he wanted to use my car to beat a turbo T/A. I told him he better have parts ready to go to fix it by the next day if he broke anything. Id rather run that T/A myself, eh we will see when I have an off weekend. Hows that T/A of yours?

Well the rear end held together longer than the motor. TA will be back up in a couple weeks, shotty machine work or just plain bad luck led to the #8 intake valve seat falling and pretty grenading the motor. Funny thing is was just starting it up to go home when it let got.

Run the TA, it'll be good practice for both of you. Don't let the turbo scare you it really isn't that fast.

Oh **** that sounds like James did the work for you j/k. Ill probably run it, James said our hp & tq numbers were pretty close. Just wondering ball park for a 10 bolt installed? If its close to a 12 I might just go that route if anything were to happen my 10 bolt.

Wow that's a lot more than just two that went last week. Thanks for waiting until sat. or sun. night, so I could come...... You're all just scared you might **** your pants when I drive up....... How loud is my car you ask? Let me just say that I built my car after a famous quote by a very great man, "When I gun the motor I want the world to think its coming to an end!"-Homer J. Simpson
