And checking underneath - this has one of the common leaks - hardly a leak, and no residue on parts below or undertray.

This is the tube - not the shaft leak - to fix this as per audi - its engine out and oil sumps off etc.

We have done it in the car but 2.5 days for the first time is far too much.

This leak we are going to seal another way and see if it stays sealed. There is a triangular plate that has gasket sealant on it and an oring in the tube.

So next tuning step is exhaust mods with just sec cats removed, MRC Filters and stage2 engine remap and gearbox remap. The gearbox remap moving software torque limiters, running higher pressures in the box and higher rev limiter with quicker changes.

This is not with a catback yet - that is still stock.

The stock airfilters are like a carbon filled pollen filter - super heavy and thick.

It now does 721ps and 1049nm. Top end going flat as the back pressure is so high with stock catback - there should be another 20-30ps changing the catback, with a bit more torque.

And the VIM mod done - but I find digital reception is poor in the 2G MMI so not really much use.

The H&R's sound promising Doug. Are they the A6 upgrade or do they make an RS6 specific one too? Is it enough to sort the handling out (I know early days on your car) or does anyone do coilovers for them?

First shot at some 0-60 and 0-100 times. Esp fully off as front wheels spin in 1st. Laggy coming on boost in 1st so we will try some tweaks to get better launches.
