I did the A6 342 gears a couple weeks ago. Makes it even funner to drive. You'll take about a 3mpg hit when cruising down the interstate but the fun factor is worth it.

I bought mine from RPM Transmissions (they're a vendor here on the forum) and what they do is take stock units and upgrade the gears in them. I'm about to buy another stall converter and would highly recommend them.

I figured you and the Z stopped at GreatLakes Dragaway on the way home! 
...about 6th gear. I find it useable with my stock gears at anything over 50. I only have intake and exhaust on an LS2...why do so many feel that 6th isnt usable until you get gears? Its overdrive...and thats seems to be how it works stock.
I am trying to find a local with 4.10s to get a "feel" them!

For those of us not on the east coast who can't take the time away from the office to come out to you...
I don't suppose you travel like Spin does, do you?

Awwww...Dude!
Here's the deal....If you're on the west coast, I'm presently working with 2 shops out there.....One, in Chandler Arizona (Phoenix) and the other in Corona California.....Possibly another in northern California.
We could easily arrange a "REAR END PARTY" (hey now!) and a Travel n- Tune deal in the fall.....
The weather sucks here in the winter and I love to travel!

If anybody's curious as to how much higher the rpms are, do a search on my name as I started a thread a while back showing the different rpm/mph values.

373's
Chuck and I discussed the 373 idea while we were tuning my 346's. After driving my car a while now, I think the 373's would be awesome on a car you didn't do any traveling with. How long before we see an A6 410 beast!!

If you do a search you will get a wealth of information. Unfortunately you will have to weed thru all the BS to actually learn anything. You're best bet is to call this number and ask for Chuck.
