    Should have mentioned that I had already done that. Big question on that is going to be what clutch setup to use.

    Are you just doing a cosmetic swap?

    A full RS6 conversion is $$,$$$$.
    Ten years ago if you had 500HP you were the man. Now days that means you bought a new car.

    AMD stage 3+ clutch will take anything you throw at it and will last for a long time, work and feel like stock clutch and hold all the TQ you will ever need unless you're going 1000hp or something like that... and it doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

    Thoughts on AMD Stage 3 or 3+ clutch kit with Steve Kendrish flywheel and adapter vs Clutch Masters 850 Twin Race Clutch wth Steve Kendrish adapter?
