The car has the following
Stage 1 ECU Tune
DPD Filters
Lowering Module
That is all that has been done to the car nothing else. Other Mods to follow :
Down pipes (Had for 2 months not fitted )
Akrapovic Exhaust (Weight Saving I dont think it make any power ) ( Next Few Weeks if the Price is right )
Carbon Ceramics ( Weight Saving ) ( Need to save some cash as they are not cheap )
Custom Magnesium wheels weight 7.8kg each wheel ( Weight Saving ) ( Should be ready about 2 weeks )
900hpTurbos - As the Tq on the Gearbox is limited not sure how much extra these will help but time will tell. ( Trying to get a spare set to send )
Also I will take the Car to the Drag Strip to Confirm the results with the Draggy . The weather and tracks are not as good as you guys in the US.

only thing pending are the hybrid turbos and mag wheels. May I ask where you got the mag wheels from and sizing? I’m looking to get a pair!
great pulls btw! You are right about the tq limiter on the gear, sucks!

Quick Update
I think this is the best time Im gonna get on a stage 1. But to be fair the car ran 6.1 most of the times but glad with this time for now.
Stage 2 next few weeks but I don't expect much improvements but I will be trying some race fuel 109 and see what the difference is but I will let you know on the pump and race fuel on the stage 2.
Will be taking the car to the drag strip when it open in 4 weeks just to compare the results from the Dragy
So final results Stage 1 and Filters
0-60 mph 2.86
100-200 km/h 6.03
60-130mph 7.03
1/4 mile 10.54

i even might do a tune like this also for the first time in my life.
by the way, today went to a local inspection shop to legalize the window tints and the guys start talking about my car and how cool it look and then they mentioned the Audi RS6 Avant with 705 HP. I wasn't aware of that and made a quick search to find out that it is a limited and tuned edition of the base RS6 Avant Performance and it "only" makes 3.5s in 0-60mph!

There is no ****ing way you got a 7.03s 60-130mph with a tune and some intake filters. That's faster than a Huracan Performante. My car runs 8.65s with a tune... Was this at a prepped drag strip? What was the DA? Is the downhill slope a factor here? Even those variables shouldn't count for a 23% difference? That's... amazing unless you're lying? (sorry to sound like a salty butthurt Internet nerd who is upset your car is faster than his lol)

That car was tested for over the month and constantly developing and correcting ecu file, not like most of others cars that got off the shelf tune
And yes, its truth, only remap + filters, that result was recorded on public road with slippery road and had some wheel spin on 3rd gear.

How much did the filters cost and are there any downsides to them?
How much tuning/dyno time/money went into developing this tune? $3k? $5k?
I am probably not alone when I say... I'd pay money to make my car 20% faster if it's safe?
Any problems with misfiring/detonation?

Is that to say that off the shelf tunes leave 20% on the table?

Any problems with misfiring/detonation?I think filters are 250$ , im not sure. Car run on dyno at least 14 times as far as i remember ( thats how many different maps were developed)
no problems so far, car is pushed hard on frequent basis ( dyno/road measuring)
Will see what will happen when it comes to st2, because thats where most problems come ( o2 sensors bypass)

The thing is, most tuners give as safest as possible tune, you should keep in mind that every car runs different even with ecu remap.

You never have any misfire problems? Like you floor it and the turbos/spark give out?

he comes here very rare, so I might help to answer Muffin questions regarding the tune. I know pretty much everything about his car and every step they go through as we are very good friends.

yeah, best way to cut them, makes the whole process easy. Never miss fired or anything...

And I echo Muffin here, not trying to hate down but the W213 has been relatively light in times with heavier mods.
