We're not talking about changing the trans....we are talking about the torque management that is computer controlled. I can almost guarantee that anyone that's done any kind of tuning on an A6 at all has removed or significantly reduced the trans torque management.

I agree with ps2ren in that I ave never heard of any A6 tranny probelms with a tune. The only thing that I have other than what you are looking to do is headers. I did all the other mods and then waited until I got headers before my tune. I was very happy with the mods without the tune so I am confident that you will like the mods with the tune. Just make sure you do your research and choose a reputable tuner. They have good ones on this forum.

For OP I'd suggest springing for a dyno tune...get the most out of it, have DOD deleted at the same time, and also have the transmission tuned - that makes a huge difference in responsiveness. |

CAI: $300
Catted mid-pipes: $300 Tune: $450 ------------ +/-$1040 and you'll be at least 4 tenths quicker than stock. Easy to put that back to stock too. To put that in perspective, if you raced a bone stock L99 Camaro you'd be out 3-5 car lengths on them.

I don't know exactly how far it is from your house but from Philadelphia to Jannetty's shop is 191 miles so it would be well worth a day trip to Jannetty and have him set you up. The man knows his stuff and he will give you exactly what you need and do so honestly. He won't sell you a tune if he feels you don't really need it; he'll tell you the truth. If he does do a tune you'll love it.
Contact him, let him know you're coming so he can have everything ready, watch and learn from a pro and after he's done you'll be enjoying a great drive back home with your new upgrades.

It would be one of the best days you spent with and on your car. Well worth planning it. Ted knows these cars very well.

Found a set of cheap GMPP touring exhausts without tips for sale, they are basically borla S type re-badged by GM. Where do I buy the tips for it? I found plenty of tips on borla site but not sure how to sizes go
here's the link to the exhausts, but I want to make sure I get the right size tips http://www.borla.com/products/camaro...rt__11775.html

Well I spent all weekend at the track and data logged for Matt's tune, I needed a transmission tune bad and Matt spent SATURDAY night emailing me back and forth til 10:30 at night Central time mind you! Just shows the quality and concern of customer service! All I can say is WOW!

It shouldn't be treated conceptually like the engine side of the TQMT Matter of fact the only change in the TQMT table on the transmission side I make is maxing a couple tables like having "none" on the tip in TQMT, and disable power down shift. Once you really learn and understand how to tune the 6l80s, you don't just go down the list of torque reduction tables and disable all six tables, or adding a bunch of line pressure. For years, Ive long moved away from doing either of those and use the "adder" tables to achieve my desired results. Phil |
