0-60 for a Tiptronic?
I have a Tiptronic S4 and searched all over for 0-60 times. Some say its in the range 5.9 to 6.1 Can somebody please help me with this?
Also, I am thinking of chiping mine, is there anyone out there who has chipped a Tiptronic S4? I inquired from a couple of places and they said they need to change the tiptronic chip too, in order to reduce the strain on the tranny.

me me!!!
i chipped my tip S4 with the GIAC ecu and tip chips..
must say at 12k it felt like a completely different car... shifting was much less sluggish and the engine felt like it could do 0 - 60 in 3 seconds.. (yeah and i just spent the night with britney spears) i wish.. but the car overall felt much faster...
don't know the real time for the 0-60.. i should look into that too huh?

Re: me me!!!
Thanks for the infor, i'll check out the GAIC chip. Ur car looks very cool. Did u send the ECU for chip replacement or took it to the shop?
I wonder if you have noticed with the stock tip, u cannot ****f from 1-2 or 2-1, it happens automatically. And sometimes the shifting is very abrupt with a slight 'thud'. Specially when u press the gas pedal when moving around 2-3mph (Slowing down for speed bumps).
Do u still encounter this with the new tip chip? Or u never came across this kinda thing?
Try local drag strips for measuring 0-60 times

to downshift from 2nd to 1st gear... (more)
around 10-20mph you tap down on the (-) twice and press the gas pedal 50%. and if you give full throttle starting from 0mph you'll hit redline in 1st gear as well.

NASA w/GIAC ECU+TIP chips got a 1/4mile time of 14.2(ish), 0-60 5.5ish (?)
basically, the consensus has been a Tip w/GIAC ECU + TIP chips gets similar #'s as a stock 6 speed
