Long time no see to all my RS6 brethren! Missed you guys and wanted to see how everyone was doing. I miss my RS6 like crazy and wish I would have just done the manual conversion and slapped some big ass turbos on it. I bought that CL65 and was the first in the world to do a built trans, custom rear and some big arse turbos but even pushing nearly 1000HP it was still a pig out of the hole at 5180lbs. Could only ever get an 11,1 @ 131 out of it (18 times in a row it did 11.11-11.14). Thing would hit 220 like nothing but the RS6 was just soooooo much more playful. The CL you just mash the right pedal, adjust the seat massager, change the radio station, ask the passenger what to do for dinner, notice you were swinging past 200MPH and then here them mumbel "whatever" for food. It was just too dang civilized. Zero feedback where as the RS6 talked to you and let you know what was going on.
I think I will get another RS6 cause I really did love that machine and so many here were super nice and helpful in my endeavors with the machine. Now I know to be more realistic with it and know 600ish is a good sweet power number for it.
Things for me are about the same. My shop is doing well. I am getting married in January to the love of my life I have known for over 20 years. Got a C5 Vette thats getting a 1500hp drivetrain being built as we speak. Still got the truck. Still have boxes of RS6 parts. As far as I know its new owner is still in love with it. lol
So how are all you guys doing? DHall still have a massive collection? Cmnair still have that beautiful machine of yours I always lusted after? lswing, you still the destroyer of transmissions? Anyone make some serious HP breakthroughs? Everyone still have heir RS? I miss much while I was gone?
I still miss Daz. He sure was one great dude not only for his RS6 knowledge but just a good dude. I have his stickers up at my shop and one on the home computer. lol
