Default Maximum Transmission Shift Pressure in PSI

Does anyone know the maximum shift pressure in PSI on the 2008 A6 transmission? What can the transmission handle? I think stock 1-2 shift pressure is at 203 PSI. Anyone know the answer to this?

I dont know the max but the a6 can handle a pretty good load. Its fully tuneable and doesnt need a shift kit like the a4 to bump the psi as high. Hopefully somebody can get you a firm number. Jim at swtuning here in okc is pretty knowledgeable. Maybe you can give him a call. His number is 405-728-5044.

203 is correct, sir, in the X pattern mode, at operating temperature and over 332 ft lbs torque, which is about what max torque it sees on a nearly stock engine.
