Top Speed?

[Digga]

I was curious what the top speed of a stock or chipped A6 2.7T is?

Also I am pretty sure the cars governed correct?
If so ....how do you get rid of governer?

[beckmaster]

Top speed unchipped is 145mph. To remove that, get it chipped. The fastest I have gone so far is 130mph.

[Digga]

Well I am APR chipped and it definitely taps out at around 130-135......??
I clearly have more room on the tack but it just wont go any more....... not sure if its fuel, air, exhaust????

Any suggestions

[golovemd]

Why are you guys driving 130+ mph?

[African2.7T]

i'm giac chipped and last week i went for a run with a friend in his 335 and i did about 145mps on fifth gear.

i always thought after a chip out goes the gevenor!!!

[audiRSallroad]

audi says that the a6 and allroad are aerodynamically limited to 130 so that may be why your car feels like it running out. they do have the aerodynamic coefficient of a brick...

Why are you guys driving 130+ mph?

Trying to outrun my past.

[oc-drop]

good answe tony!

sucks for whoever goes only 130 cuz I can match it in the 2.8!

[Myallroad]

i did 130 in my AR and still had some left, but let up. Didnt want to push it considering i had 3 people and full trunk of luggage in car.
Yes they all egged me on, i didnt want to at first. She got there pretty quick though.

[banditoamigo]

I had my AR up to 135 at the track, and had to pile onto the brakes to bring it down to 110 for the turn, so I know I'd be good for more (the car was pulling pretty well even at 135). But I'm stage 3 so can't say how much a chipped C5 would do.

stock is limited to 130
Chipped, governor seems to be remoevd. Mine went way beyond 130 though it takes longer to stretch its legs past 130... Tried on an closed section of an interstate.. wind noise got bad too IMO for such a car

[beckmaster]

at about 125+ I start to feel the wind take effect on the car. I just dont feel its very stable and actually my max was 128 not 130. My car is not lowered though and I dont have a spoiler. (its not lowered cause I live in upstate NY where it snows 5 months out of the year, and it snows alot so I need to be above the snow.

Generally when I do let it go with not too many cars on the road I drive 90-105 sometimes hitting up to 115 in clearways with no cars. Yeah I know I am stupid for doing it, but I love the speed, I am an adrenaline junkie who is too scared to get a bike.

Next upgrade: Blinder laser scrambler

my car is stable as can be and very little wind noise up to 135, but it stops there, and if the RS6 is doing 155-175 it cant be our aerodynamics , that car is that same besides a front end??? plus i have seen some stage 3 S4's doing 185 , they have bad aerodynamics as well, so who knows :(

[xpl0sive]

got my 4.2 to around 140mph no sweat... then it was struggling... and my car isnt chipped so it might have been the governor kicking in... but all this aerodynamics talk... if you got enough power you'll get to 200mph no problem... past that aerodynamics play a huge part

[Gigi]

^ duobt it, gearnig will max you out below 200.... 180ish maybe :) fst enuogh though!
Acceleration get so muc slower past 125-130

[sleeprr]

got my 2.7t up to 174mph last night......:D ok maybe not.

When First Got My A6 All Stock Hit 145mph Racing A G35 On 684still Had More On The Tach.so 130mph?dont Trust Everything You Read Just Have To Try It Yourself

[stevea6/z28]

why Are You Guys Driving 130+ Mph?

Cause We Can Stop Being A Pussy,and Why Do People Buy Fast Cars To Putz Around?didnt Think So,you Should Of Bought A Civic

[p.tony]

I was told i was doing 140 by the time my friends M5 caught up to me. Didnt have time to look at the tach. I was trying to get away from him....fail...lol

[Digga]

Trying to outrun my past.

LOL hillarious!

Well my car is dropped, has spoiler, some sexy all seasons on a warm Florida road....so traction and aero was not the issue.
My car is chipped and it had more room in 5th and is just tapping out?? Gearing? Air? Electronic limitation? I can't figure it out.......

You don't exactly ask the dealership why your car won't go over 135

You are a fucking moron. My car goes PLENTY fast for me without going 130 mph. I am sorry, doing that speed on a public road in ANY car is irresponsible. Hopefully you end up hitting a tree and not a family so you only kill yourself and not other people.

Well Some People Like Going Faster N Dont Do It All The Time. You Just Sound Like A Little Bitch,and Why Did You Even Come Into This Thread If You Only Do The Speed Limit?in Case You Didnt Notice The Thread Is Called Topspeed?so Start A Thread That Asks How Many People Do The Speed Limit Like Your Self, And Your Odds Of Getting Into An Accident Are The Same. And Remember Always Keep Two Hands On The Wheel Just Like Mommy Taught You.

are you guys actually hitting shift to capitalize the first letter of each word?

P.S.

You are fucking pathetic. Your post shows your level of intellect combined with your level of immaturity. You think people buy cars just to floor it and drive it at it's top speed? Fuck, a Civic will do 130mph, so should all Civic owners do it? I had no issues with the others in this thread, other then to disagree with their choice to drive that fast on public roads. I bet that they at least know the inherit dangers of doing so. You undoubtedly do not. If you honestly think that driving at 45, or 55, or 65 , or even 85 mph equals the same danger and chance of causing an accident as driving 130 mph+, then you truly are as stupid as you come across.

For the record, I am NOT a doctor, FAR from it. I am a hard working blue collar guy. I drive a big 'ole Ford E350 85% of the time, probably more even. On the weekends, I drive my A6. It's smooth, luxurious, powerful and refined. I don't have to drive 130 mph to enjoy or love the car, as apparently I HAVE to according to at least one.

No one ever said whether it is on a track or not. I merely asked why people are driving that fast. If on a track, then great. That is the perfect environment to do so. This asshat decided to call me a pussy, a little bitch, and other words he wouldn't know what to properly associate them with since he undoubtedly has not seen a grown woman naked in his lifetime. But I digress. Point is I asked a question, he attacked me, he showed his maturity level right off the bat, enough said!!!

did i say you should floor it all the time no he simply asked what the top speed was and everyone is putting in there imput on what they have done or heard and if you had enough common sense you would know that there wasnt any one else on the road, cant hit 145 with traffic.

This is what YOU said in response to the ONLY thing I posted in this thread at the time. So no, I will not shut the fuck up because a pissant like you tells me to.

When First Got My A6 All Stock Hit 145mph Racing A G35 On 684still Had More On The Tach.so 130mph?dont Trust Everything You Read Just Have To Try It Yourself

I did, my car actually tapoped out at 130mph whe stock..
I think they are all be lmited from the factory (well the V6) but some cars have had the limiter (re)moved... and owners don't even know if they bought the car used. could be wrong. But I know for sure mine was. No more with the chip of course.

[Digga]

See that is the part that is throwing me off.... I have the APR 93 oct flash. So I shouldn't have a problem. Maybe I will call APR to ask the questions?????

[GTIBONO]

since its the topic of top speed, what you guys think a 2008 s6 would be if the limiter was removed?
