What did you do with your Z today? 🙋🏻‍♂️

[KrackaC8]

You didn't say, so I assume not, but did you do any pre-LDP pulls?

No sir, the before & after is from tuning only.

Those are literally perfect numbers for a street car, these lightly modded and tunes VR30's appear to be very reliable, right around these numbers. Does the car feel more responsive, how is the throttle response?

She pulls hard, that's for sure! I'm good sticking at this power level as I think anything more will increase complexity and decrease reliability.

Yes, that sounds great! I'm pretty happy with close to the stock power but your level should be marvelous.

Nice power bump! I’m pretty happy with the stock power level, my focus is more on chasis and suspension. I’m getting the subframe braces from Z1 next week.

Nice! I did those Z1 braces (front & rear) last month to pair with my Stillen swaybars. Very happy with the balance now, even on stock springs.

Racebox had my car for the day yesterday for the LDP install and dyno tuning!

446whp
477wtq

What are your other mods besides the LDPs?

Those are great numbers for this chassis in my opinion!

Nice! I already have the NISMO coilovers and stabilizer bars. I’m really excited to see how it feels after the braces…!

 

[Zplz]

LOL.

I came to the Z after 8 years with a tuned MY18 RS3 sedan. Insane is the correct word... an incredible point and shoot weapon and the newer ones apparently have resolved a lot of the understeer issues with the chassis.

I miss the sound of the RS3 more than anything else but the engagement and connection with the Z makes up for it. When exiting the car, I turn around and look at the Z a lot more than I used to with the Audi too.

Spot on. The 5-cylinder sound is incredible, and the new rear torque splitter definitely helps rotate the chassis to fix that old understeer issue.

The fact that they offer two completely different driving experiences is why I chose the RS3 to go along with the Z. Living in Northern Utah, I needed an AWD daily for when winter weather means I can't drive the Z. The Z provides that raw, mechanical, rear-wheel-drive connection that you have to actively manage, while the RS3 is a refined, all-weather missile that just grips and goes.

What was the before?

 

[KrackaC8]

What was the before?

385/387

Curious about the little deviation between 2600 and 2700 rpm.

I asked the same since it's odd... Tuner said it had something to do with his foot on the gas pedal.
