looks cool mate - i prefer the G8 spoiler for sure....

did you get the exhaust, CAI and tune done all at once? I got the exhaust, but i'm keen to know how much better the performance is with the intake and tune.. I'm sure it'll be a big improvement, but i'd be looking at about $1600 so it's not exactly cheap..

Cheers mate,

I already had the exhaust fitted prior to the tune, it pulled 224.7rwkw which isnt bad for an A6...I gained 44rwkw with the otr & tune so it was definatly worth it.

Looks good especially in Nitrate , does the G8 lip use the original spoiler holes.

Very nice, love the VEs in the Nitrate. Any plan for a cam in the future? Make sure you keep us informed on how you go with the custom grill. Well done.

Thanks bud, yep but it only uses the front 2 holes so you have to empty ones(i just used rubber grommets to cover them up). The spoiler comes with bootlid clips which makes the spoiler sit perectly with the bootlid but it requires modification to the bootlid(cutting etc...).

Thanks Wikky, haha yeah i was talking to Chev bout it...Should have the head & cam done towards the end of the year or early next year.
