What's redline for the 2.7t? I was going based on 7k, but I think my AAN revs higher than the V6.

Regardless the AR trans will be worse because the trans gearing is shorter and the final drive is shorter too. They are both designed to work with much taller tires.

- The 2.7t 01E is preferred for several reasons. - ThetaTau87 2016-02-12 11:44:57 (2520 views)
  - I mean, my A6 01E 1st gear tops out at ~30 mph on the limiter, 2nd at ~60. - JediJoker 2016-02-18 04:12:21 (1266 views)

      - Yeah, right about 7K. You're right about the allroad trans, just giving real world A6 experience. - JediJoker 2016-02-19 03:23:51 (1168 views)
- I'd go with S4/A6 solely for the correct front diff. See my comment in your other thread. - SteveKen 2016-02-12 00:33:05 (1189 views)
- The Allroad trans is very "tall"(blonde, blue eyes), you run out of gear rather quick..... - kinderutz 2016-02-11 20:58:20 (1268 views)
  - Sorry to nit pick, but the correct term is short for numerically higher gear ratios. - ThetaTau87 2016-02-12 11:48:20 (1201 views)
    - How's that? :) - kinderutz 2016-02-12 15:58:58 (1148 views)
    - Thank you! - berniebenz 2016-02-12 12:04:04 (1149 views)
