hi everybody,
Nice to be on this interesting Forum
my name is Pierre.
I'm Canadian born but I live in France for 30 years now.
I live in a small city Sommières wich is located in between Montpellier and Nîmes. (South)

I had before a 2002 A6 R6 avant and I did a lot of good work on it to keep it fresh.

Now I just bought a 2002 A6 C5 wich the 2.7L Twin turbo engine with 200 000 km (150 000 miles)

Very good job done by my specialist mechanic : 2 new high performance Garret turbos (lot more air pressure and more reliable than the original one) , new customized stainless exhaust line without the catalytic system and a much much better sound, new heavy duty mono mass clutch, new timing belt, a new reprogrammed ECU with a special lambda gage.
now, I can use it with Super ethanol fuel (1/2 cheaper in France) or normal gasoline without loosing any performances it automatically adapt to the fuel.
On the performance side I have now 300 + HP and a 55 m/kg torque (tested) compared to the original 250 HP and 35 m/kg It's a huge improvement

See you along the forum

Pierre
