I took off the mufflers on my 3.2L. Sounds a little raspy but sounds OK inside. $250 and I kept the mufflers just in case.
I like it and the price was right. Not much out there for the 3.2L

Go to Audi, Then A6, then select 05-08 3.2.

P.E.S makes it, they are a very reputable Audi tuning company like APR & MTM. I think they might have also been the first to build the supercharger for the 4.2 motors. Just go take a look at the website, also check out there work on youtube. http://www.youtube.com/user/PEStuning they have videos from tuning an A4 all the way up to the R8.
Thanks gkb! I'll check it out.

Do you know anyone who actually installed it?
There are a couple tuners out here, but
Go to the Website and click "DEALERS" scroll down to NewYork, http://pes-tuning.com/dealers.aspx you don't have to bring it to a tuner, AnchorAudi (Genuine Audi installer)http://www.anchoraudi.com/ in NY is a listed installer.

If you are looking for an official installer KMDtuning in NJ http://www.kmdtuning.com/, they are a very reputable tuning shop and only tune Audi/VW/Porsche , have alot of knowledge and tune all model Audis, also where my dad tuned his s5 and his current S6, they do great work.



I know many people who have installed P.E.S chips and superchargers, but none specific for the 3.2 A6.

Hi new to the scene but very interested in what you did with the exhaust so correct me if im wrong but did you just remove the two mufflers just before the exhaust tips and welded on straight pipes??

Cant tell you what my particular gains were because I had more going on than just exhaust but I did like the sound.

Just to chime in here a bit. REMUS USA Rep' here. We have many dyno comparison curves from the REMUS Audio Dyno Test Cell for several European and Japanese brands / models. If we don't have a particular dyno curve, we will offer an "average" generalized extrapolation from the cars we do have that info' on. REMUS, as a huge O.E.M. supplier to several top European brands has the intimate knowledge on how much the stock systems are being choked down to meet stringent E.C. sound and emmissions standards, largely because they are manufacturing a large number of them. We see from 2% - 6% H.P. gains when installing our free flow RS's (Rear Silencers) and more when installing our free flow FS's (Front Silencers) or CS's (Center Silencers). Three examples in three distinct segments of the spectrum might be; a Porsche Carrera S full system, that gains 20 H.P. in the mid range, or a BMW E92 M3 RS system that gains 10 H.P. at the peak, or a VW GTI V Turbo RS / CS system gaining 13 - 18H.P. in the low to mid range. These dyno curves are published in print catalogs and online info' disseminated all over the world. Hope this helps.

So what would the gain or dyno curve look like for a C6 A6 3.2 look like? Just wanting to know before I spend $800+ on two mufflers. Remus exhaust systems sound awesome, just the price is very high IMO.

I removed the mufflers from my Audi A6 3.2 and drove around, it was far too raspy and the high end power was lost. I recently installed the K6 Exhaust from ILL Industries and the sound is much better, deep and not raspy. The mufflers are custom built for the 3.2L and keeps the note deep and not too loud inside the car. I would say the power is about the same, but the sound is much better than stock! http://www.illindustries.com/ns/imag...xhaust_01a.jpg
