Excerpt:

"Over the last few months my RS7 has been residing at APR with some upgrades in the works.

They have made incredible progress and I am VERY happy with the results. The basic changes are stock turbo's reworked by TTE, new APR inlets and Roc-Euro intake, APR cast Race DP, and Miltek exhaust. The remaining important part is tuning which is phenomenal! Power is steady at 765AWHP / 775AWTQ on 104 Sunoco. Pump gas was 680AWHP / 725AWTQ.

We went to the Montgomery track yesterday and I have to say they do it first class. We made many, many passes and the numbers are below.

Best pass was 10.348 @ 135.56mph at 2.52pm when the DA was registering over +3,000.

If I could get better traction we could have gone faster.

We started with some M/T drag radials on the rear and the car didn't like them so we put all four Forgelines on and she picked up. Wheels are 20 x 10" Forgeline GA1R with 295-30 20 Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2. They are sticky but not enough.

Using the upcoming APR 4.0 TFSI Cast Exhaust Race DP and new APR Stage II ECU Upgrade, we set out to test the C7 S6 and C7 S7 in various configurations, ultimately resulting in two new and exciting records!

The S6 was outfitted with the APR Stage II ECU Upgrade, APR TCU Upgrade, APR Cast Downpipes, 93 octane fuel and all season tires on factory wheels at full vehicle weight. With a 1.733 60 foot time, the best result of the day was an 11.388@121.81 MPH. The heavier S7 was outfitted with the same mods, but ran with Sunoco GT260+ 104 Octane fuel and Michelin tires on APR Wheels, again at full vehicle weight. With a 1.678 60 FT time the best result of the day was an 11.019@124.61 MPH! The density altitude remained close to 0 feet all day according to dragtimes.com. For comparison sake, our best results with the factory equipped vehicle was 12.216@112.42 MPH and 11.628@117.83 MPH using only our Stage I ECU Upgrade, and 93 octane fuel.

Over the course of the day, we ran several times, backing the 11.3 pump fuel results. We frustratingly backed the 11.0 multiple times, mere hundreds away from our goal of a 10.9 on factory turbo. The video does not show the fastest runs as those were captured after the film crew left as they had prior Super Bowl Sunday obligations.

On the dyno, the Stage II ECU Upgrade, paired with the APR Cast Race DP offers a substantial leap in power and torque, which contributes heavily to to the faster times at the track. Stay tuned for the official release

APR Ignition Coils are designed to be a direct plug-and-play upgrade to factory coils, and provide greater energy output, ensuring a stronger and more consistent spark. The commonplace replacement of factory ignition coils with those taken from the higher output Audi R8 is popularly believed to provide greater energy output. However, testing proves that they are no more powerful than the factory coils that are found on other engines. APR Ignition Coils increase energy output by up to 6% over stock. They are a direct upgrade or replacement, and come with a unique red housing!
