Hi to everyone, i'm fairly new to this forum and based in the UK.

I'm really loving the RS6 car and in comparison to my previous cars they are some machine!

I'm currently running a 2003 RS6 Avant with:
Wagner Intercoolers
Miltek Resonated Exhaust, would love to get some Exhaust bypass valves :hihi:
ITG Filters
Bilstein PSS9's
MRC Stage 2 Map running 540bhp

Unfortunately i've had some bad news about my gearbox requiring some repair as its now slamming into gears, there no error code so the TC seems to be fine but Grizz @ Unit20 has advised its the drums thats going in it.
So i'm looking to get possibly a refurb over a new box and opt for a ACE TC to avoid any future issues.

Just wondering what everyones thoughts are on the ACE TC's and how many people use them?
Has anyone had any issues with theirs and how long have they been using the TC?

I think i may be joining what seems to be a small number of Ace TC owners in the UK but wanting to get a good feel of the robustness of them in the USA.

Thanks for your help!

Like mine, I think everyone using ace has been happy, search, or look over a few of my posts, your car will be sweet after the work!

20k miles in 11 months! Jesus that would take me 3 years to match that many miles.... Prob twice as much, bloody uk petrol prices!

That's the most miles I've heard anyone running a ace tc, can anyone better that lol
