Default Any tuning out yet for V10 S6????

Any news on tuning for the S6 yet? I absolutely love the car, just a bit underpowered.

Chip, intake, and exhaust from anyone?

I don't want some garbage mod that will blow the balance and ruin the torque curve, what do you guys suggest?

Default Underpowered??? What is your goal?

This is a naturally aspirated engine so no chip is going to help. One guy here did add exhaust (mtm I believe). I think he was looking more for look and sound than performance increase.

There are plenty of other options under other marquees for more power...or wait to see if the RS6 is released in the US.

Most agree that the S6 is a great combination of power, handling, interior styling, fit and finish and overall capabilities. Motor Trends virtual road test (using its test results). The S6 finished .10 seconds behind the M5 (500+ hp) in the test. For straight ahead hp and g forces try M5 or E63 (in this class at least) but be prepared to put up with the other issues within each of those choices.

Default The only thing I have is an exhaust.

Here's a few pics. Kinda hard to see what it looks like, but it's an MTM. It cost me $5K, but I really like the performance and the sound.

Look no further. Only RS6 will satisfy your power craving.

No no no...I love naturally aspirated, I have many other turbo sports cars, 996 porsche turbo, cayenne turbo, lotus v8 tt. I do not intend to buy the rs6 because I love the racy free revving feel of na.

Default Re: Underpowered??? What is your goal?

I have other turbo sports cars, the goal is tha this car is fantastic, just underpowered, so I want to augment it. It needs another 50-80 hp to do the trick. I don't want an avant, or turbo rs6, this is my first na performance car and I love it.

Default Get an RS6.

Your only solution.

Then sell the car to someone who will appreciate it.

Simply amazing how perspectives differ. The glass is half full if only you'd look more closely.
