i think it is good that he is not satisfied yet. by K04madness being so adament about getting the
best for his car, he has opened alot of doors, and kept alot of tuners on their toes to give their best 110% on tuning an s4. he is the one spending the money on the stuff, that in the future you will be buying because after all that time it ends up working.
I give a **** cuz he is honest and trying to do the best for us, and our cars....i hope.
no offense, just want you to know that some people do appreciate his posts and maybe that would change your mind....i dunno

That comparison really doesn't mean anything.
1) You can't really compare numbers from two different dynos - regardless of whether or not you have a baseline from each.
2) One dyno is adding a correction factor in for altitude that is wrong. Use the hp conversion factor to calculate HP from their raw torque number, not ASW's hp dyno number.
3) Two different porsches and two different audis. Whose to say that ASWs 996TT wasn't down on power or that AWEs is exceptionally strong.
4) Two completely different sets of atmospheric conditions.
5) Were the Porsche and the Audi @ ASW dyno'd in the same conditions?
6) AWE cars were running 93 vs ASWs 91. Maybe 996TTs don't like 91 or were "tuned" for 93?
7) Where's the dyno slip - not that I doubt you or ASW but you yack, and yack, and yack about no slips and we've seen what, 1 or 2, ASW dyno slips and definitely no ASW porsche slips. We've seen no logs.
That's probably enough for now. Until a comparison of like cars, in like conditions, on the SAME dyno can be completed - this is all conjecture...nothing more, nothing less.

Yes - I do ! - If Andy is right.....
and this car made 20 whp more than a 996 TT Then this is pretty "wild"
I'm assuming the cars dynoed right after each other and the setting stayed untouched.
A chart would be cool - but if not I still have to take note.
was this custom tuning?
and is he still making the same whp today?
It's all good stuff - I like it!

please, give me a break, the only thing "tuners" see in Andy is his green $$
and there is nothing wrong with that.
I respect him for being able to do his own thing and pay his own way.
