Default H&R or Brembo upgrades for RS6?

This weekend I hope to attend a GTG and rally in Florida where Champion Motorsports will have displays of H&R suspension and Brembo brake products. Just wondering if I should expect anything that might work as an upgrade for the RS6 and if so, whether anyone here has had experience with 'em on their car. TIA

I would think w/ Champion it would be more Ohlins and Alcons, especially regarding the RS 6.

I would suspect that too! And the DRC would probably need to be disabled.

Default Here's a link to the event, which mentions only H&R and Brembo below the graphics

Also, I called Champion this morning & was told that they can get "pretty much anything," altho selections are limited due to limited production of the RS6.

When I see them this weekend (assuming my back back continues to improve &amp; I can make the 2.5 hour drive), I do plan a retort -- something like, "You mean you guys raced an RS6 for two seasons but can't come up with worthy upgrades?!?!"<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/qclubflorida/msgs/46735.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/qclubflorida/msgs/46735.phtml</a</li></ul>

That in-house chip warranty sure sounds intriguing!

Default Don't expect it to be a warranty against turbo/engine damage, but I'll ask

APR, for example, already guarantees their chips for life. But that's a guarantee that the chip will perform as promised, not a guarantee against turbo or engine damage from (for example) too much wear or stress from increased boost over time.

But I will ask about the Champion chip warranty when I go to the GTG.
