I have not but have considered it. What scares me (a tad) is that it brings torque up to 479 ft/lb. The ZF tranny we have in our TDI's have a max torque rating of 480 and stock we have 428...
That and the fact that it will automatically get flagged TD1 the moment any overzealous tech ignores my request and plugs the car in. Somehow, I don't think a bit moar powah is worth loosing the remaining 4 years of wty I have...
Ya. I thought about that as well. I think I'm probably good with the service guys just need to talk to them first. Also I have the maint package so the car gets taken care of for a long time so that is something I need to consider as well just in case they hook it up.

Same here (maintenance package). There is a GIAC and a Uni tune, I believe, that is a bit more mild (about 460ish). But I think I will pass on it; it's plenty fast as it is now.
I exchanged emails with APR earlier this week regarding the tune for the TDI and they scared the hell out of me. I emailed them seeking clarification that the tune was for a U.S. Spec TDI since the stock numbers they listed did not match the stock numbers for the U.S. TDI in the A6. They responded that the tune must be for the U.S. Spec car since the TDI was not offered anywhere else in the world! I was flabbergasted. I went from handing them my credit card to running away from them. They clearly have no clue when it comes to the TDI.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha....... Who did you email? I'd like to send them my own email and see if I get the same answer.
Well I called them yesterday to get some general info and was taken aback myself with the lack of knowledge and canned responses that I got. Might have to either try again and see if I can get someone else with better answers.
Hopefully the person I talked to yesterday just had a case of the Monday's on Wednesday..
