So have been looking around over the last few months for a remap on my A6 (3.0tfsi). Thinking when I bought it, V6 and supercharged, roughly the same engine as an S4, there should be plenty of tuning options coming into the market, as the car has been launched for nearly 2 years..

Having remaped cars in the past, I know how they drive allot better, especially lower down in the rev range, when you need it the most..

Anyway, it appears that the market is limited for this type of product, however one Audi independent has a remap for the cost of £1,800!!! This to me, does not represent good value, however he states the gains will be around 23% additional hp and torque over standard, just through a remap. I know they have a rolling road, therefore they would need to demonstrate it, however seems like allot of cash...

Any thoughts?

£1800 that sounds a lot of money just for a remap. For a 30% gain on my TT I only paid £500ish

Well if there arent any generic maps available then perhaps get your car to a customer mapper. They can stick it on the rollers and map is appropriately. They are usually in the region of £500 aswell.

Is that MTM's kit you're talking about?

Being a supercharged motor you'd assume it would want a change of pulley also to increase boost pressure?

Try MRC Tuning. They might be able to custom map it for you.

Kim Collins offers the M Cantronic (MTM) upgrade (£1500 + the dreaded) but I cant see any mention of new pulleys etc?

Thanks guys,

The company that quoted me was APS, who have a good reputation. The work itself would be a proper remap, as opposed to MTM who do a piggy-back product, which I really don't won't. Will try the others listed.. thanks..

I am also sure that a Supercharged engine has to have this.
