Default Considering A6 Avant but need more ponies!

Really like the A6 Avant except for one problem. I live at 9,500 ft. and this car is simply underpowered. Anyone have any information about how to boost power? Can an aftermarket turbo be installed? Any chance that the 2.7T engine will show up in an Avant soon?

Default supercharge it

PES tuning has a supercharger kit for under 5k. 280hp!
I just got an avant (for my wife actually) and agree it is a little weak in the power dept, but is really a nice car overall...
My dealer told me they had't heard any truth to the 2.7t avant...
