That AWD launch is nice...I'd just be really surprised if it was sent away being tuned from a dealer. It wasn't a ford dealer so who knows...

Dpipes and springs can take a few tenths off, but that hot air intake isn't helping much...lol

If you examine the ground on the battery,it was removed at one point or another,its not aligned up?

Are you asking me or are you telling me it's been removed

My coyote is pretty much 12 flat or high 11..The sho isn't  anywhere near that but I'd say about 12.5-12.8

Then it has a tune for sure.

It is possible that the tune was left on the car, if the prev owner did not remove the methanol kit.  BUT the kit appears to have been disconnected (light does not turn on at the dash switch).  Anybody know a good source of methanol in Maryland?  A good brand of windshield wiper fluid as substitute?

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Probably was tampered with when they were installing the meth, maybe?

Nope, but then we didn't get to pull the engine cover off.  Was too darned hot, almost burnt my fingers even touching it!  The bellypan was on there, so no peek at the downpipes either.  That will be done when the car goes in for servicing and is up on a lift.

Does the vehicle have xm radio and is it active? There is a serial number or meid number on the screen display and write it down and then you can call XM radio and politly find out info on who subsribed.

Now this is genius..question is can I get a number out of them?? I believe it does have xm.. sadly I did see one of the stations I believe it was sirus, that said I need to subscribe...but maybe I can call and be like I want to re up the current one and try to get the info out of them that way.

Wouldn't it be better just to ask the dealer flat out?  No legal/ethical dilemma.

I have been following this thread for 5 pages, PM me the VIN and a direct email address for you and I will get you an answer as to the prior owner.  I am leaving shortly and wont be back until Tuesday, but if you can get it to me by noon today, I can tell you what I found.  I need the VIN and a direct email address for you.   I cannot believe the Audi dealer won't even call the prior owner for you.
