2001 a6 2.7T Tiptronic NEED HELP WITH MODS
Hey guys and girls,
Just about 2-3 days ago I had the chance to get a 2001 a6 2.7T Tiptronic for only 12,000 with 46k miles on it... Obviously with this price I am looking to mod as quick as I can. I have been looking into the great battle of APR vs. GIAC... I am willing to drop 700-1500 for my first mod. Please post ideas and help a new a6 2.7T tiptronic owner out [8D]

Hey,
WOW! after a night of taking the car out nothing could be better than seeing how i can help the performance of the car.
GIGI would that fall into the 1500 price range? Aswell I think i have my eye on the APR ECU upgrade with the EMCS unit. The only real question I have is how is installation, and is it really worth getting more than 1 or 2 settings with the EMCS unit. http://www.goapr.com/Audi/products/e...ade_a627t.html
I understand that the stage 3 would be great, but i am looking to do that within the next 6-8 months. I am just looking for a quick way to boost the cars power and quickness.
Thanks again for all the help!
P.S. I have to beat my friends 1998 bmw m3 (300ish HP) (3000 pounds) Vs. 2001 a6 2.7T (current 250 Hp stock) (4000 pounds)

RE: 2001 a6 2.7T Tiptronic NEED HELP WITH MODS
nooo that all doesnt fall into the 1500 price range. figure this...
700 for an APR 93 octance setting with intsallation, add money for optional programs
80-350 for diverter valves which are needed
600 for VAST piggie pipes installed
400 or so for the VAST TCU program
That already is over your budget. Parts and labor arnt very cheap for your 2.7T. And as far as you going full stage 3 in "6-8 months," i find it highly unlikley, unless you have endless money.
Beating your friends e36 m3 shouldnt be too difficult depending on his mods. My buddy has one with dinan software, intake, exhaust, short throw, and i beat him with the mods in my sig.

Again, if you are really going to do a Stage 3 in 6-8 months don't get APR now. APR does not offer a Stage 3 kit for tiptronics. Talk to people from VAST or AWE. A stage 3 kit is only 5500 plus installation. Get a stage 3 kit.
