Nice, ours is a daily too. She wasn't suppose to be. She has been a garage queen for the first two years of her build.

Mine was not suppose to be a DD but I just couldn't bring myself to get rid of the 69 vert. And after driving the '11 vert I just wanted to drive it every day anyway. The IPF SC was just something I couldn't pass up and make the V6 really unique

That is cool.

That is why I can't trade my car. I feel like she is unique and an extension of my personality.

biggest problem with the TT route on the A6, is having to change out the diff/axles/etc. would be paying about 10k.

Another thing is that you guys have an LLT so no matter what FI you pick, you'll pretty much end up at 400 hp because of the fuel issues. At that point, I feel going with the most reliable kit will be best. IPF has shown to have their tune pretty much figured out at this point

Matt's shop is in Florida and he's an IPF dealer offering free install and free before and after dyno pulls for the first customer to step up. Might be something worth looking into. I know if you get the kit installed by an ase certified tech you have the option to purchase a powertrain warranty
