Right, everyone enjoy the car the way you want with equipment you prefer. I have driven a Z06 and other manual trans on the track as well as an A6. Unless you are a very good driver, the A6 allows full attention to all the other things you need to focus on. Anyone who hasn't missed a manual shift on a road track hasn't run many events or hasn't been running full out. Apologies to the person who will post a claim they have been perfect. The A6 allows gear selection without a second thought or worry about over-revving wheel grab and 4-off. The A6 has done very well for me except for the low gearing not providing the rear wheel grab and revs out of the corners. Now that a 3.42 can be installed, that will change and I am anxious to run T1 and Oak Tree at VIR with the new ratio. So enjoy your preference, I'll take the heat for the automatic and laugh with you on the cartoons but also take the extra shift into 2nd when the manuals are staying in 3rd and look for a point by!!

I don't understand why people waste thousands of dollars on minor improvements like this. If you want power, just spend little more and add a supercharger or turbo.

Do that and the A6 will fold like a lawn chair. Even the M6 usually needs to beef up the clutch.

A "Cow" tune on an automatic is way more than a minor improvement, it's money well spent!

It really is a kick in the pants!

Another good one from the CoW marketing gurus.

I already can't wait to get tuned next Friday. You are killing me, Chuck.

if anything "SUPERCHARGER"

Chuck, are you related to Crazy Eddie?

With a supercharger you automatically lose your warranty, with a rear gear change they won't know that you did a change.

Which is why guys are opting for a 2K gear and tune rather then a $10K supercharger.

Used to Live in LI/NY and Brooklyn/NY.. now in SFBay Area .. CA traffic is killer and an auto is the only way to go if your ever gonna survive .. or else go a little shift crazy.

I have a Chuck CoW tune and I can't imagine having a 3.15 or 3.42 rear in my A6 .

This manual (manly) vs. auto (girly) stuff gets real old .

I know what my A6 can do and so does the 04 Z06 down the street...when I see him again I will ask him how does my tail lights look from behind .

I would love to do this, but I drive about 30,000 mi a year for work. Driving would be no vacation for me. I will just have until a e-mail tune is available. I had my pevious cars tranny tuned via e-mail and it made a big difference in the fun factor. Spring is just around the corner!!!!

Why do the MN6 guys click on an obvious A6 thread?

For the same reason the LMB guys click on the JSB threads.

They want to read about obviously better cars!

J/k

maybe...

You can pullout your computer and overnight it to Chuck COW and he will overnight it back to you.

I need at least 10 A6 C6 cars here in Hawaii for Chuck to do a working vacation out here and do the tunes to make it worth his while.

I don't think so, I'm sure he said in a recent post that he has to have the car for his tune, he cannot do mail order at this time. Hope he comes back here and clears that up.

Chuck tuned my car when he visited Arizona in October. I think he said he could tune the computer through the mail but can't tune the tranny unless he has the car.

Hopefully he can confirm for you guys.

wow, i must really have issues i sold my 03 Z06 just so i could get the 08 auto btw my last four Vettes were all manuals the 69, 86, 89, and the 03 just got tired of shifting i mean really whats the point of shifting? unless you make money racing your car who cares if the manual is a couple of seconds faster in a road race. ever been to the drag strip? you will notice almost no one uses a stick anymore, all auto's, in fact they have special manual shift classes now b/c of the limited use. just a thought.

I just had to quote it...
