Oh I know, just surprised a 200hp V6 could lay down such nice marks, maybe 100ft long

Default There must be something wrong with your car...More

I did test it out at the drag strip and doing pretty good (consider its a tip). 6 speed with same mod(chip and exhaust) are runing mid 13s and I run high 13s. keep in mind that ITS AN AUTOMATIC!

Default I own a tip A6 2.7 , had to wife (Boss) said no manual!!

And DANGIT I wear the pants in my family!!!!! Whatever pair she lets me!!!!!!!! Seriously, I like the Tip in the A6 but if there is a way to improve the performance that is nice too. I bought this car cause I thought it would be easy to get some HP gain with it. I can understand someone having grumblings about a car, thats why the forum, on the other hand once you purged yourself of this bitching leave it be and move on to the next topic. We( Audi) owners shouldn't beat the crap outta each other, saw enuf of that on the bimmer board for 5 series. So NASA chipped the thing and I'll pray the tranny and turbo's don't go into a molten state! Or drive as is and enjoy.

Default Something wrong?

I checked the TBB and it's fine. I admit my 0-60 times were w/stopwatch and I'm extrapolating for 1/4 mile. The car feels fine and launches great but just doesn't seem to have the gearing to rip off times anywhere near the 6-speed without chipping. I'd be happy for a .4 or .5 difference but it seems to be more like 1 second difference from stock. I'll post how I do on the track chipped but w/stock exhaust.
