Anyone know any good engine performance mods for the RS6 Quattro Avant
You can chip it, increase the size of the turbos, change the transmission and other internals to withstand the new power, upgrade the intercooler, and change the downpipes and exhaust so that it will all breath easier. Of course there are suspension mods as well.
I thought I would put up a couple more sites for you. And I should point out that my list of possible mods above was only the beginning of what you can do.

Runs great! oh ya def hit a 100, however, I am still breaking in the engine so it has only happend once or twice. The car's computer allows you to set a speed limit at any desired speed. I set mine to 90mph and it seems like I hit it w/ no effort at all! Like I have been saying, I enjoy cruizen in it and not ragging it out. However, A friend of mine was dying to just sit in it and before I took him for a ride, he took off his shoes! a bit Overkill, but a I didn't mind. I figured since he was giving me speacial treatment I would do the same. I took him for a ride and while merging on the freeway I hit 110mph and in no time reached 138mph, solid as a rock and climbing in 4th. Felt like we were doing a 100 max! All on his video phone FYI. This thing is incredible! Granted I won't do it again until I head to West Texas or the Mojavi Desert where I will do 155 for as long as I can. Damn I wish it wasn't limited to 155! I have google links showing guys driving on the autobahn at 188mph! All of this in a four dour V8 for under $80,000...fully loaded that is! This is absolutley the most incredible car I have ever driven or riden in. I will say the fastest was in 2 other cars. 165mph and easily still climbing in an S600 Benz and 200+ topped out in fifth gear in a Dodge Viper...with 6th gear still in our back pocket! Needless to say I was shi*ting my pants once the speedo barried at 180mph and fully reved in fourth. Not to mention we had a soft top on...which is limited to 60mph HAHA! I guess I will never beat that in this car but o'well. Maybe if I strip the limiter, drop a bad*ss exhaust and throw a Vortec custom/zero maintnance supercharger (6lbs of boost or more) I could? I wouldn't do that for years though! The chassis in the RS4 can withstand up to 600HP easily. Anyway, done rambling, just wanted to say again how awesome your profile pic is dude!

If you are talking to me (Trev) my car is not Twin Turbo. I own a 2007 RS4. Which is, as you probably know, b/c your a smart guy kovachian, naturally aspirtated. Whether I add a supercharger or twin turbo...it doesn't matter! I prefer supercharger b/c the power is their whenever you need it, where as with turbo, it has to "wind up". By "zero maintnance" I meant on the supercharger itself, not the car. Depending on the brand and quality of supercharger you WILL have little maintnace or none at all. Kenne Bell, Whipple and Vortec all are zero maintnance S.C.'s. I was on the RS6 thread b/c I wanted "PTurbo" to see my remark about "the dude". Otherwise, I really don't care for the '03 RS6. Great car, fast and looks good but Im more into what I have...not what I don't. However, I do want to see how the new RS6 will look & run!
