My biggest gripe with my Q5 3.0T is the super quiet exhaust and jerky downshifts when slowing. It’s like it keeps the torque converter locked all the way to the stall speed and you can feel it jam into each gear. Seems to be a common complaint with Audi’s ZF 8HP implementation.
Sounds beautiful got a 2012 a6 3.0 charged and want to update. I loved audi's since the movie Ronin and wanted one. Wanted an a8 but in my area dealers didn't have good ones so I came across a 1 owner low mileage jet ticket yup 😅 A6 love it just want to suit it up. Love what you did with youra
Just did IE stage 1 tune 93 octane on my 2013 a6 , pleased with the gains and datalog capability and crazy easy to flash at home took 15 minutes start to finish.. also made my own welded 2.5" downpipes with front resonator delete , left the rear resonator and put 2 magnaflow mufflers on to replace stock, sounds great, deep as hell. Where did you get the steering wheel and is it a tedious process installing and programming for the paddles I'm very curious
Coming from an Audi fanatic in the past year or two we got a deal on a Cadillac ATS 3.6 Paddles on this car are extremely delayed and im wondering if its the same for the A6 as well. wanting to go back to an Audi due to "American Engineering". Thanks!
You talking about the tensioners rattling, I guess. Oh, how I love those audis. Rattling chains like birds singing in the morning. Especially when they tell you, its "normal" cuz they cant figure out, how to make them work xD
@@slowwa6741 Off the top of your head -- What maintenance jobs are you talking about? I have an A7 and am trying to take care of everything myself. Already replaced plugs and fluids - but my tensioners rattle sometimes
There’s tons of things depending on the mileage. Plugs and coil packs are a good start, my upper tensions are rattling as well. PCV, Thermostat, water pump, intercoolers.
That exhaust and intake sound so nice. This is on my next to do for sure.
Perfect man! Not too aggressive but sporty enough to make a difference

Which mufflers
sport package from audi gives you the steering wheel
Hey bro did you need the power saver when flashing?
Nice setup! How’s the drone?
I'm stage 2+ 034 motorsports but OEM exhaust will be picking up ie downpipes as my mesh is messed up on the passenger side.

so what's the best exhaust for Audi a6 c7 3.0T looking for sexy sound good gains and worth spending $ on?
Nice mild sound 👍👍
Which air filter are you running? Model number I just ordered the intake tube but I want to make sure I get the right filter
Did the blower get louder after the exhaust? (Breathe better)
Not really to be honest. Just the increase in sound.
Any drone noise in the cabin?
Where you get your paddle shifters?
A good amount, and eBay I think!
bros got his exhaust system sitting un the backyard im crying lmfao
where did you get those paddle extenders?
I have the same in red off amazon $25
I’m looking at a 2013 A6 3.0t with 131,000 miles, 2 owners.. should I go for it??!!
No, it will need a bunch of maintenance
Does it fit a 13 A6 2.0L?
How much was it? And would it work on a audi s5
I heard the sound of a trembling iron plate somewhere in your vehicle from cold start and launch control.
Iron plate?
@@slowwa6741 Huh. A noise similar to that and thinly hitting something.

@@RDM221 I was going to purchase the same kit but I don't like that rattling, might go with CTS downpipes
Everything sounds really good. What year is it? looks like '14?
2012!
@@slowwa6741 Mine is a '16....totally stock I'm hitting 4.9 - 5.0 0-60's and 13.3 - 13.8 1/4 mile times. Do you know your times post the mods?
12.5 @108 on a 90 degree day is my best so far. Just intake exhaust and stage 1 Ie.
@@slowwa6741 where did you get your steering wheel with paddle shifter
@@Kaizxn- sport package from audi
Have the same exhaust in my C7 A6 and get terrible drone in the 2k range which sucks on the highway. Curious how you don’t seem to have any??
He mentioned he has a resonator, you didn't
I have mf mufflers too and the drone is really annoying in the highway
What mufflers and resonators did you installed, or you just installed mufflers only with straight pipe?
Where did u gett paddle shifters
How does yours have paddle shifters ? Mine doesn’t man why not ?
Sport package
Good stuff man. Just got an A7 and cant wait to start making changes. You recommend IE stage 1?
Yeah! Definitely suggest 034 motor mounts with it thought.
@Jordan Grado I’m 7 months late but yes go stage 2. Upgrade inter cooler to prevent heat soak which is common for these cars
@Jordan Grado if you’re ready to spend 2K on the upgraded pulleys sure
Does it farts?
its not a DSG
This isn't a Honda.🤣
Did you changed yours steering?
sport package has 3 spoke steering wheel and paddle shifters.....i think..
is anything on the engine modded ( other than the intake )
It’s a fbo car. 57mm griptec upper, 034 190mm lower, merc v3 hx, headers, methanol, quicker ethanol kit to run e40, ported blower.
@@slowwa6741 sounds amazing
How many miles on your A6?
110k
@@slowwa6741 I am looking to get a A6 soon. Is there any problems you have had that costed you?
If you buy an Audi be prepared to spend some money on maintenance

where you get your grill from
eBay!
aye yo, sounds good.
Sounds very similar to the stock exhaust. Straight pipe is where it’s at
Cut it on, must be a southern thing. cut to most people means turn it off. Like cut the power. or start the car is typical. whatever
Bro the gum chewing 😅
We hear you chewing gum 😅🤣
That thing sounds like trash as a auto!💀 nice build tho.
Now a manual transmission changes the exhaust note? Interesting to know.
@@slowwa6741 😂
Has no idea How card works🙄
How did you get your tailpipe tucked so close to your diffuser?
Will that magnaflow set up fit a 2017 A6 quattro 2.0T?
Bro that’s what I wanna know.
why would a 3.0 exhaust fit on a 2.0? different engine set ups too. no, it won't
