    Tuning for the RS6?

    Is there any tuning products on the market yet for the RS6?
    MTM or Hoenester?

    Without the electronic stop at 250km/h the top speed should probably reach 300km/h, or what do you think?

    Regards /Nicke

    This one is quite nice. From SKN Tuning. Including the 'must-have' annoying sounds often common with German websites.

    Nice pictures!

    I would be nice if they made a test and compared the tuners to one another! Always intresting to see if they perform as promised!
    But one of the few test like that, I have read was made by the swedish magazine, Bilsport. And I somehow doubt that they will test it for the RS6

    The RS6 Avant that we drove in June topped out at 280 km/h, and that was with a full tank of gas (not for long), and five, full-sized, adults!

    A friend that is driving a MTM chipped version around, with 500 bhp, claims to have hit 310 kp/h.

    Very impressive.

    As an aside, my dealer (USA) called me today to let me know the order sheets will be available in December. He also started buttering me up regarding some price gouging that they will partake in.

    Let's see... no Avant, no recaro interior, no nav plus (I consider the US nav to be Nav Minus actually), no piano black trim, etc., etc., but there will be dealership price gouging? I was not impressed. To the point where I am considering waiting and importing an Avant from Europe, outfitted the way I want.

    Thats a pretty nice topspeed! :-) What has been modified except for the chipp if he reaches 500bhp?

    Do you have any 0-200 km/h times after the upgrade?

    Swedish company Dahlback Racing has already chipped a Luxembourg based RS6.
    I wasn't able to get any more information but as soon there's a new one in the 'lab' I'll let you know more.

    DBR is using MTM.

    Maybe with 18" wheeks the accelaration times would be better, but those 19" really ROCK.

    I guess 17" and less can be forgotten on the RS6 but when measuring performance bolt on the 15" - 17" for best performance.

    On the street, 19" or 20" for looks :cool2: :king:

    BBS Challange 19" for the RS6.

    I really hope they make more versions available, but this one is nice too.

    I guess i would be pretty hard to fit 15" over those brakes

    But maybe som lightweight 17" would fit, and I bet it would do some good for the preformance!

    You need 18" for the RS6 unless you want smaller brakes...
