Hi need some advice, I have an a6 2.8 c5 I want to start tuning it but does anyone know where is best to start? And is it possible to put a turbo on this engine?
Thanks in advance

Pointless.It will cost more then this car is worth.Better save some monies and buy 4.2 or s or rs

PES-Tuning did make a supercharger kit for the 2.8 v6, but I think it was the thick end of 2 grand...

Yea, no way I've got that kind of money to waste

Biggest issue with the 2.8, a remap will only release about another 20-30hp, but looks to make it more available lower down the rev range. other than making it sound good, there's not a lot you can do to the v6s

Yea I realise this after looking for tuning parts online of which there is hardly any lol I think I'll just leave it as is until I get something else. Is it worth putting a performance exhaust on it do you think?

 

[Arrkon]

Exhaust wont necessarily gain any power but they do sound good with a nice exhaust...

Ok I'll have a think about that thanks for your advice guys!
