Interesting about only netting 290kw on E85, I guess the AWD sucks up abit of power? Tuner was seeing a bit of valve float & intake temps high with stock Intercooler so didn’t push it at all with the tune, didn’t even play with the timing even though on E85. Also had a buggered rear muffler he reckoned might have been worth 5-10kw. just ran E85 to run cooler until I could afford front mount & valvesprings but will push it more on the tune when these are done. But not sure Trans will like too much more power so may retune on 98 until I upgrade the ZF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louder. But not offensive or drone. I bashed mine out. Just cost 2 new gaskets How did they get yours out?
