easiest way to get in touch with MTM?

[boondocksts]

after seeing what they did to the RS6 for that tuner GP I want to have the 6speed done on my car, along with the larger turbos, but the only problem is getting in touch with them. i tried calling but whoever answered didnt speak any english. would i be best to call hoppen motorsports in florida because they are teh US importer?

there is no 6 speed RS6 the "rs6" that they had was either an S6 or an A6. If you look at the grill you will know what i mean. unless MTM had a 6 speed cutome made.

The Beast awakens...

With the RS6 Clubsport MTM celebrate the first place last weekend at Tuner-GP at the Hockenheimring.
The time of 1:12.453 would be in the GT-class, at the Porsche cars, the 4th place.
The performance was increased by the turbokit to 570hp, the vehicle weight could be reduced by modifications over up to 300Kg, without comfort suffers.
The change from automatic transmission to manual gearbox brings the driving fun on highest level.
In the future will be take place some modifications on the axles as well on the aerodynamic. There are tests planed at Nardo.

As a reference. The Lamborghini Gallardo and the Porsche GT3 RS does the Hockenheim in 1.11,8 min...

Your local Audi mechanic is talking out of the ragged rear end of his overalls. You cannot just bolt up the RS4, or S4 gearbox to the RS6 block. A lot of work has to be done, alterations made helicoils inserted, pan welded up, engine mounting bracket altered, starter fitment altered...... the list goes on. You can bolt the S4 / RS4 gearbox up to the S6 block however. Then you have to completely reprogram the ECU....

try Hoppen Motorsports in Sarasota

http://www.hoppenmotorsport.com

and ask specifically for Mike Hoppen (maybe Joe will be there as well). It sometimes takes little time and patience but, well worth at the end, imo

i know it takes a lot of work, and it will be expensive, but that isnt really a concern, my concern is just getting the 6speed (and the 570hp :D )
