Posted 28/08/12 10:14 PM Share Posted 28/08/12 10:14 PM So after 2 x XR6Ts and then the graduation to my wonderful G6ET for the last 3 years.... it's time for a change.The Audi arrived a couple of days ago - and am still gobsmacked at how this thing goes (the new 500nm diesel turbo in the MY13).Best bits? The Radar Cruise Control and the Bang and Olufsen Sound. And the S Line interior is stunningly put together.So - guess I'm still turboing (though a little slower)!Pics attached....PS filled up yesterday after a couple of days around the city and it says 840kms in the tank. Hmmm... 5 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/81663-new-ride-for-johnny-g-with-pics/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 29/08/12 11:08 AM Author Share Posted 29/08/12 11:08 AM GTFO after all this time??? Nah.... don't think so Tab; you'd miss me too much. Yeah Pat - it's pretty scarey - got rid of her one month short. Lord knows where that will turn up!! As for tweaks - definitely won't be a racechip or similar; there's some good programming stuff coming out of the US from some Euro tuners, and my tuner here will be throwing a four wheel drive dyno in soon. All maybe's at this stage - this thing is going to take a few months to run in me feels - so the timing might be good.Pat - PS the Eibach springs might be on the list later - will keep her as is for the time being.Love that car... 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/81663-new-ride-for-johnny-g-with-pics/#findComment-1287135 Share on other sites More sharing options...
