Lol I read that as bone stock and just about crapped my pants. Good to have a baseline.
To clarify, are you going to rewrite/tweak the tune used for that run?
Concerned?
It wasn’t the easiest to read the day so he took it off. I’m re-hosting it with the date
The date was 4th November 2013 3:37pm
Eric
Cool thanks. It’s just weird when a timeslip shows up with photoshop done to it. I’m sure you can understand.
If I told you I was selling GTR turbo kits and I went 6.94 and showed you the timeslip with some fucked up editing done, you’d lose your fucking mind, never mind be concerned.
It was just a date…
We are not some fly by night operation. I would think our reputation in the automotive aftermarket world would earn us a little bit of trust. Its pretty clear that you are going to try and discredit us at every possible opportunity because we are working with EPL…don’t try and sugarcoat it.
Hit refresh, the initial slip now shows the date
The video will be up early next week. They are doing some editing with music and text and all that jazz.
Eric
Actually my facts were all spot on and you don’t show where any of them needed work… Oddd…
Here is what we all wanted to see.
[quote]If EPL proves they can’t get the job done then we will address that. However Tony has shown no signs of that happening and we believe in what he can do. Tony is a smart guy and With Martin and Chris here at AMS (who do our in house tuning) I bet those three can lock down some awesome options for Audi owners.

You can hide behind the GTR and whatever else you want did EPL tune your GTR…If no then your missing the 10 pages of issue…If your telling us that you can put all your hardware on the GTR and have a crap tune and still get those records then maybe using EPL shouldn’t worry us…Since EPL didn’t tune the GTR you might want to see that we are saying WE ARE ALL WORRIED YOU WILL MAKE GREAT PARTS AND THEY WILL SUFFER BECAUSE OF EPL NOT AMS…
If you think EPL is great. KNow there fastest time is yourr B8 S4 time…wake up we are all trying to let you know what your into and YES your not going to get a easy path being a partner with EPL There years of 600whp dyno sheets and 14second 1/4 mile passes have put them in a bad light… NOW martin and chris helping will help you look over what has been a fail of a tuning company to get out a better tune. Thats what people wanted to hear.
why is everyone so confrontational?
Your “evo style testing” comment was completely wrong. You insinuated we are going to be removing weight and making glory runs with these cars. We don’t do that, I showed you that. You are not correct and spreading that kind of thinking isn’t fair to anyone.
You questioned our ability to make a product. We make some of the best products in the automotive performance industry.
We get it, you and a few others on here don’t like EPL. You have CLEARLY stated that. We however base our decision process on something called experience…direct experience. So far they have come through with everything we have asked. IF they fall short on that mark we will address it then. We know how to take care of ourselves and determine what is best for our company.
You say that run was their fastest pass to date. Couldn’t you also say that our first time showing progress with this platform was a success? Maybe we are a good team.
I intended to come here and share some our process, ideas and goals for this platform. A few of you actually seem interested in that while others just seem keen on telling us we are doing it wrong before we are even given the opportunity to prove ourselves to you.
Again if you don’t like the way we do things, move on…don’t buy from us. You clearly have an affinity for other tuners in this market and you seem happy. Stay with them and let us continue to work with the people that are interested in the way we want to do things and what we have to come. If you want our parts but don’t like our tuning methods that is fine. All of our parts will be available for purchase without tunes.
There is so much unnecessary emotion in this thread. Just sit back and see what happens…what harm is there in that? You only stand to gain from another quality company working with your platform, I promise you that.

It’s just that EPL burned a lot of people in the past with their Audi offerings, so it’s a sore spot with a lot of people on here.
That said, I think everyone on here is excited that the B8 has a new entrant in the market. Looking forward to those videos and further information about your products.
I can’t comment on what happened in the past nor if there is any truth to what you are saying but i have heard far more people talk great about Tony than bad. Matter of fact this is the only place where I have heard negativity.
I’m going to step away from this for a while as I feel like a fish swimming upstream. Ill more hard data and products when we get it. I know our cooling kit is really close to being a finished product and we are pretty proud of the innovation behind it.
Take care everyone and I hope you all have a Merry Christmas.
Eric
btw how can I edit a post for typo’s etc? I cant find the damn button anywhere.
Eric
You need to log 150 posts for editing privileges. So you’re gonna have to stick around for a while. ;D
That’s by design. New members can’t edit posts.
You owned a B5 right? So you know that there are a bunch of shops that have sold shit in a box and said it was gold because it had a pretty dyno sheet. That’s what lots of us have seen.
So, this site is full of people who want to see proven performance to prove a concept…not dyno sheets. We want 1/4 mile slips mostly for acceleration parts. You seem to get that.
Fine
Now, let’s look at what happened.
-
Saxon came on and championed your cause and said you trapped 113
-
You said you trapped 110 and went 13.45. That’s a modest time.
-
You said the DA was crazy bad. +5000 feet.
-
We asked to see the slip to confirm the DA, and you posted a photoshopped slip with the date cut off
Tell me how this looks, forgetting that you’re AMS. I can help. It looks TERRIBLE.
We know you will kick ass. We know you will show us great results.
You should love this site to be honest because we DESTROY pretenders. AMS is the real deal, and proves their concepts and parts by showing REAL performance, not pretty dyno sheets and hopes and dreams. Audirevolution was created to champion companies like yours, so you should be happy that we’re generally skeptical at first. It means you’ve found your home because we’re they guys who turn your competion…the companies who are full of shit and faking it…into yesterday’s news.
T
I think you misread saki. They said 500 da not 5000
I think AMS will like this site in about 2-3 months. Once they’ve hit the strip and shown results. They’ll get why the skepticism and confrontational comments fly around here even if it’s not their style… I like that this person (Eric) from AMS has a level head.
Eric -
I know it’s early on, but do you guys plans to do an upgraded sc or turbo once you get through the current projects?
I think AMS means it’s stock parts just a tune only. 12.45 is nothing to write home about with a tune only.
Here’s my dads run…
Revo Stage 1 93 octane…
Stock down to the wheels and tires…
DA was in the negatives…
Spare was in the car and everything, 1/2 tank of gas. 265lb driver
true I messed that up
hopefully that explains why I thought the photoshopped timeslip was extra weird. I couldn’t figure out why nobody else did lol.
+600 da is what they ran in. Not great, but certainly not bad.
i never said ams trapped 113, i said an epl tuned b8 trapped 113. it was tony’s car which has more mods than the stock ams car shown
its funny that people are so confrontational to a new idea or person here, im sure it drives not only the innovators away but enthusiasts as well.
im here for the long haul and have a past of choosing parts based on experience and not “hearsey”
people should be welcomed instead of stalked and bashed because they like different brands and parts than what the majority run 
thanks for posting up more information, i will say that you are acting more professional given the circumstances than i have seen other vendors act.
Hey Eddie Hascal, quit kissing ass and post that timeslip then answer the questions from a few pages ago.
