I don't know why but I keep wanting more power. The S6 is an excellent car without enhancements. I think maybe I am catching the Audi performance attitude.

I'll be watching for S6 enhancements.

Always room for more power!!!

I think a screw rotor supercharger like a KB or Eaton TVS would be the **** on the S6. Probably add 175-200hp with an intercooled setup. I think 600hp would do nicely!

It would work for a lot of S6 owners... but I am not optimistic that it will be around as a kit.

Ok... How about a mild dry shot of nitrous oxide? I would love to have 50 - 75 HP (or more) on tap with a push of a button!

Here is a nice article and a vid:

Interesting. I would probably blow through a tank of N2O every day!

I have run nitrous sytems on various cars from 75hp shots on a FWD import to 300hp two stage fogger on a big block. Definately fun. Not sure how the fueling would work on a FSI engine though. The fuel pressure at the rail is already very high, so most dry kits probably would not work( as they add additional fueling throuh restricting the return and increasing rail pressure for more flow).

I would hate to run a wet kit with a seperate fuel system, but that's probably to only way to make it work on this engine. Another fueling probablem could be the flaps in the intake manifold. Wet kits do not like those types of IM's as the injected fuel can pool, and go boom in case of a nitrous backfire( ask me how I know)

In Toronto, they have also made running nitrous on street vehicles illegal, so boo for me. The more I think about it, a KB or Lysolhm blower on this thing would be killer. You could run 6lbs, non intercooled with meth injection and make an easy 150hp. I will see how the money situation looks in the new year to investigate a project.

Gutting modern cats will show little to no power gains. They are hardly a restriction at all.
