also, just picked up the beast, stage 2 tune is on (tuned for headers), noticeable change ...
can't wait to dyno the animal, see if the initially set out goal is achieved ...

Really nice work. Not heard of those tyres before, are they semi race tyres? Can't tell in the pics how much tread is there.
previous- Pug 205 gti, 306 gti, 309 gti Goodwood.
Audi S3, S4 V8 avant.
Porsche Macan Turbo.
Gone but NEVER forgotten - C5 RS6 Misano red avant.

Now - Empty garage

If you don't know where you're going, any road will take you there!

the dyno run was a little off as the dude only pressed the pedal to the metal from 3k revs, the car actually pulls from 2k revs, will be another run soon

so at all wheels we made 256kW and 438Nm

Image


the current AFR

Image


look at the intake temperatures with KLine headers definitely cooler under the hood ...
