I saw that too, great time. He did use 100 Octane race fuel and has the AWE Coldfront/Intake/Exhaust too which helps. I want to see a time with 93 octane with just intake or exhaust, not the $2000 coldfront system too. It does seem that the V2 is better than the V1, although someone else on there who has the V2 says he hates it and it doesn’t do a damn thing. (Spawn350)
Nice time by the GIAC car… Atco with -870 da’s already… Oh and funny how Austin shows up so soon… Where was he when everyone was bitching about times?
He didn’t have an exhaust (at least from his sig). I don’t think any cooling systems on the B8 makes more power, just prevents it from losing power once the stock blower loop becomes overwhelmed. Which is a subtle but important distinction.
I’m interested to see how it runs on pump gas.
My bad about the exhaust, but the cooling system should help a lot since the 2014’s at least were having issues running very hot, especially with the tune. There are people on there who ran slower with the old GIAC Stage 2 compared to stock, so it seems at least like the V2 file addressed the heating issue.
I do like how Austin showed up and actually posted the link to the 1/4 mile run which was in a different topic. He was right on top of that one, but vanished for a month when people were complaining. Funny he never mentioned the car was running on race fuel and the 100 octane program when it ran that time too. Great time, but most people really care about 93 octane results and what they can do with it on the road in normal use.
Skywagon’s car had great IAT’s but ran with much less timing advance than expected. I agree that a cooling system helps, and am itching to get one myself. … but I wouldn’t write off the time because of the cooling upgrade. The race gas is another thing, but still, made it into 11’s. You have to remember the guys here with top times also have lots of experience along with other mods like testpipes, exhaust, BBK’s with lw rotors and lw wheels. Running an 11 second time on a 2014 is quite an achievement for GIAC, not sure how anyone goes apr given this data (amongst everything else).
This is a pretty great time if ran in 910 DA on the 93 file.
The fscelift s5 has done well on the 93
Wednesday of this week is my big day. I’ll post the results of APR’s and Revo’s dyno’s that evening, hopefully?
I know this is old but that can’t be right, 93 running 11.8 and you on race running 11.6?!
Either way I went back with version 2 and the best I got was a 12.7 at 110 on 93. DA was right around what it was before, it hovered around a 1000.
In the end v2 netted me roughly 3MPH and 3/10’s of second.

you have to admit rs4elitist does sound like you when hes making a point lol.
This is without the extra rpm.
I have my doubts about that time, but whatever. I could care less about the overall pump gas time.
I have a feeling the owner isn’t telling all.
He messaged me on Audizine and doesn’t seem like he knows a whole lot.
That was run in around 900 DA. This is completely outside the curve of what we have seen from every single car…
The two cars that ran a 11.8-11.9 on pump were Ron in good DA and the AWE car in slightly worse DA.
Ahem.
???
Lol, turn that frown upside down.
Yah yah yah, I know that’s what 99% of people drive around on all the time.
I was just making fun of you for butchering the saying
to say you could care less means you care, and that there are levels of care less than where you’re at.
I think you meant to say that you couldn’t care less
Damn, didn’t even catch that. Funny I just had a conversation about this saying around a month ago.
You are correct sir.
How far out of the range was he.
Stock cars other than tune and pulley are typically running low to mid 12’s at best. The outliers are the AWE car, Rons car, and Auditudes. Which was an 11.9 I believe. These were all in extremely good DAs.
This car ran in almost 1000 DA. Stock exhaust, stock cooling, OEM wheels and tires.
I’m not saying it isn’t possible, just outside the curve.
Here are some of the messages from him. He seems nice enough but incredibly uninformed, he has stock exhaust, stock cooling, OEM tires/wheels.
