Default 2006 a6 3.2 engine swap?

Does anyone know what size or any particular motor I should swap into my a6. It's cheaper than the repair and i was hoping to get a motor with more output whether a v8 or v6. If anyone knows let me know.

You don't say what year and engine your C5 is, but in any case, engine swaps that involve anything other than the engine that came out always require extensive and tricky rewiring. It's almost always a better idea to swap cars if you want a different size or type of engine. Putting a 3.2 in a C5 may not be possible due to size limitations too.
