    So I just got my A6 2.7T rebuilt.

    Here are the specs:

    IE Rods
    Stock Pistons
    Rebuilt 2.8L Heads (Upgraded Exhaust Valves)
    Stock Stroke
    ARP Downpipes
    Stock Exhaust
    FrakenTurbos
    JHM FMIC (Futrre)
    Currently running the APR tune 3xx HP I got when the car had stock turbos.

    Could you guys offer advice on which tune/fueling/hardware would net me 500hp at the crank?

    Without doing meth injection is that number even possible?

    Thanks.

    500 crank hp is obtainable with your setup. the stock catback exhaust will hold you back a little bit though, i would upgrade that. I would contact EPL or J-Fonz Tuning... definitely go with a custom tune rather than an off the shelf tune.

    Thanks for the advice. I hear EPL is pretty pricey though. I will check out JFonz. Hey what kind of clutch setup are you running?
