Does anyone know about de-limiting A8's?

I have a 2004 4.2 quattro and have an autobahn trip coming up.

Managed to get my old shape to show 162mph on the autobahn! What's more, it was only a 2.8 v6!!

Does anyone know about tuning of the 4.2 engine?

Looked at this for my S8

Seems to be a choice of re maps (lot of money for not a lot) and a milltek exhaust option.

That's about it.

Gasping for something effective for my S8. £500 for 20 bhp? Sod that.

I have thought about the RS6 brake conversion though. A bloke in West Wales had a 98 S4 with BBS CS rims and the brake conversion. It did look the t1ts.
