S4 vs A3

[Pete.S]

Pete,
I still think that in a drag race at 120mph in top gear my B5 would leave my B6 for dust, particulary as it has no rev limiter and flies past the 160mph barrier without much effort. To be honest I think the gearbox is what's freaking me out as it appears to have a mind of it's own on occasions.

Interesting. Do you know the specifics of the re-map you had done? My B5 was standard and I always found it a little, dare I say, boring, after about 5500 rpm, which is where the B6 comes alive.

Sounds like you'd do well to knock up S2tuner who mentioned the tiptronic tune in the other post.

Depends on when you want maximun torque? I thought 1st gear was a waste of time to be honest even as standard so I had it mapped to suit my driving style and the conditions/roads I normally drive on ie: not much motorway work, more urban and town. 2nd, 3rd and 4th gear were hilarious and in 5th & 6th from 70mph upwards it pulled like several horses! Remember my map worked out well and I ended up with over 320bhp. Normally I think with MRC you gain around 50bhp on the map alone so I was fortunate to gain more.
I've already spoken to Minhea about the gearbox....and the exhaust......................and the remap.

Just need to speak to the missus about the cost now.

...or chop it in for a manual

There is that. Couldn't find one when I was buying though and I loved everything about this one, even the tip at the time.
