I don't think the K03's go out as easily on the A6, there is much more room than on the S4 letting the turbos last longer At most, I'd consider a chip, maybe exhaust, but its gonna get expensive really fast after that. Intercoolers don't help a bunch on the K03's, but are vital if you go K04 or bigger. It sucks the K04 is 'the' upgrade to get...they're $2200 for a pair and once you push 20psi through them they're maxxed. RS6 turbos are a little over $3k but will do 420whp on pump gas and blow that auto tranny to smitherenes!

Anyways, like I said....chip, maybe exhaust....keep it comfy and simple I love those cars, very good mix of comfort with a little sport and power. Great DD.

My bad, it is EPL, I don't have access to MNAUDI from home and I was actually looking at chips so GIAC popped into my head.

I wouldn't mind checking out Kevin's shop at some point in time. Wasn't he working with Mo for awhile at Elite before it moved?

I've seen the k04's for a bit cheaper, but not much . Like I said, don't really want to chip it unless a really good deal comes along. Just can't the $500 they are for a bit more boost and some fuel/timing tweaks. I'd rather put the money into better brakes or suspension.
