Default More output than 310hp????

Anyone here know of any company that can modify the supercharger on the 2012 A6 to make it go a lot faster than it's diminutive 310 hp??? I mean really, when you see supercharger you think of power.... 310 is hardly something to smirk at when you're at a red light or trying to peel away from todays average sedan while on the highway (even the Infiniti G37 and Hyundai's Genesis has way more hp...

My a4 1.8 easily pulls on those cars. Get a tune and go from there

Go to apr's website. Their chip increases the 2.7's hp from 250 to 318 your should be higher than 350. Check it out.

May get lucky and get it for free if you offer up your car for "testing"

Thanks a lot fellas. I'll check the apr website. I'm quick going from block to block but the shear power is lacking. Anyone know of any decent tuning companies in the NYC area??

Apples and oranges. The 2.7T chip increases the turbo boost to gain hp. To get the same out of a s/c, you have to spin it faster. Typically this means changing pulleys. (I have a Crossfire SRT6 with a s/c 3.2 Mercedes AMG engine -- all the guys that boost it over the stock 330hp go with CAI, smaller pulleys, and tunes). Keep in mind that with older A6s, the weak link was the tranny. To much power and kaboom, there goes your torque converter or worse.
