Nice runs you two !!

[cooper1965]

2018-A8-Bone stock-Factory 20" runflats. Showed about 68 F.

Pretty weak Couple of runs. Find it strange they are both exactly 5.8, but completely different run styles. First run tried boost launching around 2300, just completely shot sideways.
Second run just matted the gas pedal, broke loose again halfway through first.
How are you guys hooking ? Launching down hill or what lol??

You know what i'll take a picture of where I do my pulls I only get to do them about 30% of the time for obvious reasons you'll see. The runflats break loose like a mofo cooper. Best I've logged is 4.9s I use the same spot and there is wheel spin everytime the only thing that changes from run to run is wether I get wheel hop with it or not.

Sorry for the long wait all updated on first post.

I've been playing around with different surface types, and it just lights up the 20's like they were on Geo Tracker wheels..lol.. These were the best 2, both on Interstate surface, and still a significant amount of wheel spin...I will try some other techniques maybe..

I'll be honest, there was no skill or anything to what I did (but of course it wasn't stock, though my wheels are stock 18"). Flat, back-road surface here in Florida - may help a little... road and tires always warm compared to what you're likely dealing with in St. Louis according to the prolonged winter I'm hearing about, and it's only about 70-80 here right now so I'm not getting heat-soaked too quickly.

Drop brake at about 2800 RPM right before it caps with TC off and just let the car fight through me flooring it. No finesse on that run and now my TCM is out as you know, so I can't even test with a little restraint. Soon!

Got a bit better this time. Showed about 72 F. Temps have been warmer all week, so ground temp was higher than my previous runs. Left from gas pedal only, this time I just kind of rolled into the throttle, instead of mashing it. Still had a bit of wheel spin towards the top of first, but much better. I think I could hit a 5.2 if I drop air pressure in the rear tires down from 38 psi.

2017 A8 I4 - 93 Octane Gas - TC On (whoops)

Mods: CAI, Intercooler + Pipes, Water/Meth Injection, 65mm TB, Hi-Flo Catted DP, Mid & Y-Pipes, Axle-Back Exhaust, Colder Spark Plugs, ZZP PCM Tune, 20x10 rear wheels w/ 305/30R20 NT05s

Little bit of slip, forgot to turn TC off while testing the new tires... going to drop the tire PSI to 32 on both sides and see if that's a nice mix of grip and street driveability (I'm sure it will be).

Nice I'll update when i get setup at my new place. I need to practice with tire pressure at the track so far I'm literally running street setup no changes i think 28psi may be a good spot.

I was reading your build stuff, I missed where you installed that digital gauge in the far left vent. How has that affected the AC flow? And is it a Turbo Boost Gauge, if not since you seem to know a lot, think anyone make a nice analog boost gauge that would be easy to install?
