    I know the owner of eurocode's wife or gf drives a black s6, maybe its their car? also, is matt correct when he said they swapped out the air suspension for coil springs? im thinking he's misinformed and its just lowered on the factory air ride. ive never heard of anything just swapping out the air springs for coil springs. usually if someones going to remove the a/s they switch to coilovers.

    isn't theirs a 2013? about the suspension, he mentions the swapped springs then goes back to say it's on the stock air, so he's probably just mixed some things up.

    He's confused about suspensions. He says at one point it's still got air suspension, but with slightly stiffer springs ...

    Yeah, weird about the springs. More likely a misinformed owner than anything else.

    No I bet it was Matt. He kind of shoots from the hip and doesn't always know what he's talking about. Did he mention a tune? I didn't hear it. As for manual mode, I believe I've notice if the shifter is to the right in true manual mode, it holds gears much harder. Anyone else?

    he said the cars tuned and makes 520hp at the wheels, but doesn't say which tuners program its running.

    520 at the wheel is pretty high if it's just a stage 1 tune. I think APR advertises 488 at the wheel and 563 at the crank on 93 octane.

    he mentions a turbo back, so I'm guessing it's stage 2 tuned

    I just got my S6 so I'm not used to all the terminology or options yet. When you all say stage 2 with turbo back, what does that mean. I have the APR stage 1.1 tune in my car but I didn't think stage 2 tunes were released yet or would require downpipes which I thought again haven't been released yet. Just trying to learn what all the options are right now and whether I'm taking advantage of them.

    stage 1: ecu tune
    stage 2: dp's and ecu tune
    stage 3: rs6/rs6 turbo's, dp's and ecu tune

    apr doesn't offer dp's directly, you would need to go milltek, I think they're the only ones offering dp's currently.

    Thanks! I'm anxiously waiting for the APR Downpipes since I already have their tune. Already have the AWE touring exhaust. Hopefully they are able to connect up properly.
