He didnt say it was a C7 though. Could be a C6.

Stage 2 C6 would be more than 730 wouldn't it?

Edit, I was thinking torgues.

MTM do a C6 package rated at exactly 730hp.

Its a C7, 65 plate, Daytona grey with Black Audi rings on the back. I was there for the filming and it was parked in the car park.

The guy has 700Nm torgues in his LEGS ! , my car is only 705 !! could be cheaper having piggy backs off Sir Chris at the lights and sell the car

Anyone know who breathed on it?

Something's making me think Litchfield as i'm sure i read or heard something along those lines, but could well be mistaken.

I thought litchfield too. Surprisngly, most of the ones I have heard of being remapped outside of this forum haven't been done by MRC. I thought they would be the most popular but that might not be the case with non-RS246'ers.

Litchfields have been in the press / top gear and he knows his cars so maybe aware of them through GTR stuff.
My bet would be Litchfields.

He races Neeeesaaaaan so yes, that's where I'd expect the tie in with litchfield.

Don't forget this guy drove LMP2 at Le Mans last year. Powered by Neeeeesaaan of course.

ive also seen dyno results from litchfield tuned Rs6's and it seems they are the same as MTM by promising big numbers but dont deliver, shame as they are mutts nuts at tuning GTR's.

Post by **E14STO** » Wed Apr 05, 2017 12:25 pm

This contradicts what I've heard on GTR scene - that their dyno over reads a touch but doesn't contradict that they are extremely good at what they do and have some monster builds out there.
Don't worry - I'm not getting into tuner versus tuner, dyno versus dyno, especially based on non RS experience.

Real world matters. I don't care if mine makes sub 700 for both torque and power at JBS, if it runs side by side with a "730" car then I'm happy!
