3.0T's Avant

Will your intake mod fit a 2010 A6 3.0T? Also how do you like the GIAC Stage 2 +?

Beautiful car you have there.

It will fit any 3.0T motors for sure. I haven't tried it, but I would bet with a little tweaking it would fit the 3.2 as well, since the intake tubes are interchangeable.

Stage 2 is awesome, definitely the way the car should have come from the factory. I did a lot of research before deciding on GIAC, but ultimately went with them because I liked the idea of having the handheld program switcher, and that it comes with a 100 octane tune.

Did the stage 2 GIAC tune come with a pulley upgrade?

Also,
What is the barbed fitting for in your intake? are you Meth injected?

Did you go with the dry filter or oiled filter as well?

Yes it does. GIAC partnered with AWE for the stage 2 pulley upgrade. The only way to use their software is with a corresponding (serial #'d) pulley from AWE.

The barbed fitting is for a vacuum line. No methanol yet..though I bet it would help since this car seems to be affected a lot by heat.

I used the dry filter. My original reason was to prevent debris or oil residue from coating any sensors. Since then I've read that these cars use MAP's instead of MAF's and there's really no harm in using the oiled filters.

Awesome. I ordered my intake pieces yesterday. Looking at the GIAC Tune as well. We have 100 octane locally on the pump, so I like that option as well. Really appreciate the post. Exhaust and coil overs are next.

I'll post pics afterwards.

I have GIAC stage 2 with a non AWE pulley, and it works great. AWE overcharges for their pulley so went with an alternative. You could go with the APR or Revo pulley. A local shop near me machines their own pulleys and provides them for customers. But they haven't officially released to the public yet.

What vendor did you go with to get the GIAC Stage 2? I've looked on their website and they list a dealer close to me in Richmond VA, but they are no longer in business or the phone number has changed.
