lol...now this is too funny. didnt you say end the last thread and what did you go and do? you made a new one.
so in this case, who needs to drop it?
i have 40k miles left on my warrenty, so i could care less about a chip because i was never goin to get one in the first place. i made my point a couple of posts ago, that you skipped over AGAIN to avoid the question......but i'll post it again......

Ok chill man, like riot said, all I want to do is help you guys understand. I came into that thread and I saw people saying stuff like ti was fact and it didnt make sense to me, so I wanted to investigate. Yet somehow as soon as I try to explain something to you guys I get blasted saying that I am a "s-line hater". Not the case, in fact I have already admitted I like the s-line, I just hate tip. That is all...
Now, if you would like to listen to me and I can explain this...
I have APR tuning for my A6, as my sig says. The link you posted is saying that the difference in ECUs and power gains is relating to what engine you have in your car. Look at the table right below that. See how the group ALL 2.7T A6's from 2000-2004 together, and they all have the same HP gains? They erase the original OEM tuning, s-line or not, and load there tuning on. Now, I know APR has a switching program that allows you to revert back to stock tuning if you want. It's a feature that costs extra, but then you will still have your stock level 265 HP to go back to. So in a sense you are keeping the 15 HP, I guess. Does this make sense to you? I don't like to argue, I just like to inform people. I am not an s-line hater, just don't act aloof around me becuase you think your car is better, thats all I ask. Are we good?
OK, you answered the question about GIACbecause i assume that you have a chip from them, but what about ARP? On their website, it even states that the HP gain is based on your ECU.
I just love how you skipped over the 2nd part of my question so that you and prove your point.

Why spend all of this unnessuary energy of something that you dont want or have?

you go from not liking to argue, but yet, you are. it looks like you are the one how is keeping this thing alive. all because you just have to have the last word. again, just like the last thread, it was over and done with, but what did you go, go went ahead and opened up a new one. why...because everyone ignored you and you lil feelings got hurt because no one would talk to you anymore. after this post, i'm done with it.
lol...go ahead and responds. i know that you want to. i know your fingers are over there burning to type something in. you want to get the last word in sooooo bad, that you'll be up all night thinking about it....the same reason for opening uo this thread.

Hi Terrod,
The S-Line consists largely of aesthetic and suspension upgrades. On the 2004 A6 2.7T the OEM K03 turbos were updated to alleviate a design flaw in the previous version. Boost levels were also raised slightly from the factory adding another 15 hp above the previous 250hp. Other than the update of the K03 turbos, physical hardware changes were very minimal. Our software increases boost to 1.2-1.3 bar on all 2.7L models because the hardware is still limited despite seeing a 15hp increase. The result of adding our software will still yield approximately 320-330hp which is a phenomenal increase. I hope that clarifies.
The chips are the same, but Audi turned up the boost in the S-Lines, to give it the extra 15hp. No One knew they turned up the boost, everybody said the ECU was tuned different.

I'm a man, I can admit when I'm wrong, I never said that I knew, nobody knew, but the S-line still will get 330 hp, so I was right on that. So no, you wasn't fully right............now its close because of my 2 cent.
