Default I was under the impression that you picked

up hp and tq ? That sheet is dead even in the hp department but you have more torque now. So AWE/GIAC could only match the hp sportec obtained three years ago, what happened ? The general opinion on this board is that AWE/GIAC are the "best ever"?

Default

The peak number is the same but look at the mid range.

Default nice numbers no doubt, but you notice the torque on your graph starts to drop around 5200 rpm ?

dyno's I have seen of engines with the all the rs4 intake goodies their torque doesn;t drop like that. Of course it could be a tuning method but those intake parts allow more air up top. more air=more power.

Default Peak numbers really don't mean much.

It's the area under the curve that's most important. Look how much more HP I have with AWE-GIAC vs Sportec from 3800 to 6000. Huge difference. And it showed up at the dragstrip too (125 vs 121 trap speeds). That's a 4 mph gain from just fueling/tuning!

Default Here's a dyno sheet comparing the two...
