Audi A7 APR Stage 2 1/4 mile

Completely disappointing first day at the strip with my APR Stage 2 3.0T. It was pretty warm, I had all season tires on and did not really launch the car but these times suck a lot. I expected mid to high 12's, which will probably happen on a 65 degree day using LC. This tune derates like crazy in the heat. Intercooling is the problem with this setup and needs to be upgraded. garbage.

Drag times are all about the launch. No point trying if you aren't going to launch it.

Personally, I would be super happy with a quarter mile time less than 14 seconds. That is already very fast, but a low 13 is even more impressive.

No one here is mentioning the fact that the car can be placed in "Manual" mode and you can switch the gears over faster in hand for a better launch and acceleration.

Did you get the coolant performance upgrade? My understanding is that makes a difference. Also, unless you got the transmission "flash" you're depending on factory shift settings, which are less than optimal even in sport mode. Why aren't you manually shifting with the paddles?

Do you have just the Stage II or the Stage II Plus Ultra?

Interesting. How much above sea level are you? Was expecting low 12s with the awd, but 13s??? Def disappointing as you mention

[isaurobanuelos]

Are you sure youre launching correctly? It seems like this can get 11.5 with that dct

So this is a St2 audi. I am surprised on how Car and Driver gets these times for "stock" A7 3.0T. They must be testing tuned cars.

thats why im smoking those 3.0t on autobahn all the time.. they overheat like crazy..

I'm on the notification list for APR stage 2+ and will post another video when I get it.
That is my main account, I accidentally uploaded the video to this account.

The issue is, you are not launching, I have the stage 2 plus with a ultra charger, running 91 oct (Audi A6 3.0t) I got to 8.9 secs) launch control used

What the hell kind of NHRA track lets you run with shorts and no helmet?

[jeebyjeeb]

How is this possible? My a6 3.0t stage 1 is doing 12.5

[stevetratt]

Steve what time would it do 0-100 with the APR tune and the pulley upgrade? Are you happy with the stage 2 upgrade?
