Irony of the following video being myth busters
An electric charger makes more of a load on the alternator, thus more parasitic load on the engine = same or less power than before you fit one. Look at the reduction in free air space on the inlet pipe for one thing.
Wizards of Nos in Doncaster will do a kit to suit your needs- don't buy 'NOS' brand as they're far inferior to the kits WON produce..
Too many people think of it as some Hollywood 'fast and furious' type mod. When in reality it's nothing like that- using a progressive controller and big jets...
You could say that about any modification to a vehicle in fairness though. Personally I think there's a fine line between an OEM+ look and ricing it out. Genuine parts are more money for a reason whereas a grp moulded eBay kit is a fraction of both the cost and the quality. As for the badges...
Hi guys, I've reached the end of my tether with my final edition and it's time for it to go to new pastures in one form or another.
It's a reflex silver '04 final edition with all the toys plus OEM additions from the S6/ RS6 including; Black leather electric recaro's
Anthracite alcantara...
Had this exact same thing happen on mine a few years back- it's the loom / resistor melting on the fan circuit. I had to get an auto Elec to reloom and heatshrink the melted section of cabling. Pull the glovebox and inspect the looms that run to the hvac system from the centre console- mine was...
Wizards of Nos wet kit would make 150/ 200hp gains for about £800. Check them out I ran 100hp nozzles on my old vr6 which made it a weapon when running on the gas.
Re: turbo- why build (not as well) as what you can buy- c5 rs6. It makes no sense for people to cast turbo manifolds for a car that...

And i want to fit these;

Good purchase - I found my father inlaw a 10 plate (?mk1?) CC and he's over the moon with it. Id love one myself but if i owned one id have to get it aired out as the look AWESOME bellied out! I love how much more refined they are than a standard passat.
As per title, mine has more electrical issues than you can shake a stick at yet i can't imagine driving anything else, i absolutely love them. So my idea is to re-shell into something without the endless amount of electrical issues and take all my goodies with me into the new one.
Anyone know a...
Who fitted the kit - are you sure they've been fitted correctly? Eibachs are only a tiny drop too, so i can't imagine youre gonna be fouling anything or scrubbing. Id check the alignment at that they're correctly fitted if youre having troubles like that.
'P' prefix iirc - the letter at the end of the serial. Ive re-fitted the old faulty one now as the other one was causing even more problems than i had before. Ill have to get it comm'd to pull the serial from it, I've not got enough plasters left to pull the unit again :grimacing:
I wouldn't have thought so as the S6 is a V8 and the TDI is a 4 banger.
Vibratechnics would possibly do one or just replacing with a new one will make a huge difference over a 10+ year old one.
