Abt Sportsline - Audi UK

After all the talk about Abt, did you not see this yet?
What does it mean in reality? Chip tuning with warranty or? [img]images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
No wonder Audi MD chose Abt...

You do have to pay for it mind!!

Check these prices for RS6 tuning... bhp/torque very similar:
Revo: £899 inc vat
MTM : £1899 + vat (£2231.33 inc vat)
Abt : £3000 inc vat

See where the warranty comes from!!! [img]images/graemlins/ooo.gif[/img] , but for piece of mind I would go with Abt.. they are also a good company [img]images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

mind you Dave how about for the same money you have both Revo and MTM, do you reckon you would get more power with both set ups

LOL.. I'd be going so quick I'd get there before I left .. and therefore no reason to leave in the first place.. just as well because the car would be knackered and wouldn't be going anywhere anyway [img]images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Abt rechip the tiptronic gearbox as well as the ecu though where as revo and mtm do not and it does make a huge difference!

Are you sure MTM doesn't rechip the tiptronic?
I would have though that is a must.

i thought MTM did that as well, maybe it is an option not included in the first package?

No way it's an option. I think rechipping the tip is a must and MTM is a serious company.

Well when I called around before having the rechip done mtm advised that there chip is just an ecu chip. The Abt rechip requires both ecus to be sent away where as the mtm requires only one. [img]images/graemlins/s4anogaro.gif[/img]
