yup. i've already got great supporting mods (IPD plenum, free flowing exhaust & headers, evo diverter valves, and most importantly longer gears).
we're going to datalog the turbos with APRs software to see if it will work (APRs software is really by far the best tune for our cars, not in terms of raw hp, but in how it works, sampling rate etc). im keeping my fingers crossed that I can keep my APR tune, if so, the car will be an absolute beast.
now i just need to figure out what to do for turbo inlet pipes, as the OEMs are known for not being able to handle high boost applications.
if not, i'll have to see if i can get chamion to give me their giac 65mm file, or get an EPL tune (with launch control). but i have a feeling APR software will work.

Typical data logging software used by most tuners is capable of capturing 4 variables at 3 samples per second. APR's proprietary data acquisition software captures as many as 30 variables at around 22Hz. That's an incredible 55 times more data gathered per second.

Excellent touches zero911, love the rear wing, blacked-out tips, and the wheels. The black/white contrasts work very well...sweet! Care to share who you went with for the pedals and footrest?

Austin can you send me a PM with more info ? i didnt know you guys were more advanced than APR. i met some of the guys at APR, picked their brains for years (since 2004 when i had my first apr tuned audi), met some of their engineers (ex bosch engineers).

That PP front splitter looks nice! I was tempted to get it but I'm scraping the factory lip as it is so I did not go for it. Do you find that you scrape it a lot?

It's actually a full carbon fiber front spoiler I bought on the internet and had painted that way not 100% sure but I think it's Techart and no doesn't scrape
