I would be curious to know if muffler delete would add power. It might but it also might take away some low end torque. Email me pis of the RS6 to ryanguercio@gmail.com thanks.
Absolutely no lack of torque in that thing!

I know that torque is not any issue in the car I was just pointing out that typically you could lose torque by doing so. Was just saying it could happen and not that it was an issue.

Finally got on the dyno with my new Eurocharged tune. 530/754 on a Mustang dyno. No huge peak HP gains, but major "under the curve' power improvements. 30-60whp gains and 100-120wtq gains.

530 and 754 on EPL Mustang dyno with just flash!
Very impressed, I knew this car would make big power effortlessly, with the cubes and twin turbo!! This was one of the cars that I was looking at before the Turbo.
I will be following your machine to see how it responds with your future mods.
What build do you have in mind with this machine?
Do you live near EPL?
I am going to coming down to EPL from Toronto, Canada in about 2-3weeks To get my new set up strapped and tuned by Tony.
Thanks

Thanks Guys. Yes, I live 20min from EPL. I will likely do a trunk coolant tank over the Winter, which won't net me any more power, but will allow me to have the same power longer. Probably a turbo upgrade in the future..which will likely lead to a transmission upgrade which wi....oh crap.....

OK..back to the track today...new numbers from
Atco..unfortunately it was Chevy day..all the Vettes, Camaros and Chevelles you can shake a stick at...got in line at 9:45am...first run at 11:30, 2nd run at 1pm...left after that...spun pretty bad the first pass and not so bad the second pass...had some fairly beat up DR's...Best 0-60 was 3.2.

Congrats ttboost! I admit I've been following these cars a bit and have a few ideas I'd like to try out. I noticed you were asking Marcin about 18g upgrades and for whatever its worth, the stock m275 compressors are already at the 18g-like level with BW 2474 wheels. The black series have 2480s which are similar to 20g's. You'll see the 2474 & 2480 used in European Porsche K24 upgrades, both of which use fairly recent extended tip technology and are relatively lightweight (996TT X-50 uses the older 2470 compressor). I'd want at least an HTA 68mm billet wheel in there for a hybrid and even that may be on the small side!
Looking forward to more of your updates!

Thanks for the info!!! Been looking for info like that. No one is really that forthcoming. Apparently it is inconceivable for someone to work on their own car. It seems if they cannot make money on you, they're out. My current mods are front mount heat exchanger, no mufflers, Bosch 010 IC pump and a stage 2 Eurocharged flash. I have no interest in upgrading my turbos unless my engine has to come out for something else. Right now I am considering a trunk resevoir and a meth kit. Oh..and some new tires...
