As has been mentioned here the stock gears will work best. I am going the Circle D route as we speak. Call them, they are great at suggesting what you need for your set up.

From my experience going from the stock 3.31 to a 3.73 made zero difference. All my numbers stayed the same. The very low 1st gear ratio in the 6r80 negates any benefit of a gear early in the run. At the time my car was stock with a tune. These days, many mods later, I’m using 3.55s to get my...

I have one. Please check your PMs.

For what it's worth that was exactly my experience with the gear change. No difference. 2012, 5.0, Roush TVS, (at the time) M&H 275/45/18, 93 oct tune. Went from the 3.15 to 3.73. No change in ET on the strip. I tend to think that first gear is so low in these transmissions it negates the...

Definitely worth checking.

Few years old now but the information is still pertinent. https://www.s197forum.com/threads/best-drag-radial-for-18x8-wheel.83582/

Lidio Iacobelli from Alternative Auto just posted a good write up on this topic on their FB page. Good read. https://www.facebook.com/320906821572/photos/a.10151678902081573/10155817232506573/?type=3&theater

Yes. From what I've seen and been told by those smarter than me the TVS cars do really well with the stock converter.

Can’t believe it’s been over two years since I’ve updated this thread. But I have made a few changes and wanted to share my experiences for others that are thinking along the same lines. In Oct of 2014 I decided to go with the Roush TVS. It was installed and tuned by Lidio at Alternative Auto...

Went back and checked my notes and with a Lund tune, C&L CAI, M&H drag radial on stock wheels and 3.73 gears my best was a 12.57. I then added a set of BBK long tubes, catted X pipe, along with the fore mentioned C&L CAI, M&H drag radial on stock wheels and 3.73 gears and my best was a...

For a comparison I ran an 8.52 @ 84 in the 8th and a 13.09 @ 108 in the quarter with a 2.00 60 ft. That was a 2012 A6 pure stock right from the dealer. Density altitude was about 2100 ft that day. My guess is you would be running a high 12 in the quarter. I would say you made a decent run...

13.09 at 108 bone stock. D/A was 2159 ft.
