More A6 fun JHM style

A6 All/ S6 All
#1

With a few new projects coming up in the next few months, I needed to get some of the other small projects taken care of while I had a few days off. I know the 5 A6 guys in the world that want to modify their A6 might be excited about this, but I didn’t want just the RS4 guys to be the only ones that got a chance to hear the 2.75" exhaust on their cars.

For those of you who don’t know, here is how sweet a stock A6 exhaust is.

Here is a picture of the monster 2" catback

You know you’re doing something right when you have 2 A6 cars on the lift. The semi mossy looking A6 in the back is actually mine.

The car went from the monster 2" to this

Doing anything on the older 4.2 seems to help, we tried a few different X sections and for the over all results the owner was looking for we went with this one. I like a higher pitched tone but the owner wanted a low tone and this gave us those results.

I thought it turned out cool I’ll try and post some video in the next few days.

Great stuff, JHM is always bringing awesome products to neglected platforms. I can’t believe how much Audi chokes these cars out.

#3

Awesome work !!! After embarking on the new C6 project, I have reminisce about the simplicity of the C5. It is a great platform.

It is going to be hard to let my C5 go.

#4

Good stuff, CountVohn. Would like to see the videos.

#5

looks like you got a set of headers for your A6, nice

#6

You used a 2.75" exhaust for the A6? Why a different size than what is used on the S4’s?

Does anyone have 1/4 mile info for the 4.2 A6’s? I didn’t find any on the list.

#7

^^^saw that too on the engine. Black a6 getting headers on that lift… reminds me of gas station taquitos

#8

You know you are in Michigan when your V8 Audi has turn downs. ;D

#9

yup

You’ve said just what I was thinking. It’s good to see someone doing something with these neglected platforms. That work looks amazing. In for the videos as well.

#11

This thread makes me happy… wanna do my 4.2 V8 touareg next? I got emissions codes left right and centre and all I can think is “tune and exhaust will fix this”. Lol

#12

nice set up :slight_smile:

#13

I tried to get that project started when I was in the great white north last time. Let me know when you’re ready.

#14

Crappy video. Here is a quick video of the exhaust on the A6.
