Default Can you put a C6Z Diff behind a A6?

DTE and RPM both show all their built diffs and then they have specific ones for the A6. Is there something different that will keep you from putting one of the C6Z diffs behind a A6 as it looks both of those company are building those to handle more power.

Yes it can and has been done. You will need different trans mounts though. Contact member, "thesubfloor" he is the man with the plan!

Yes, I have one and with the Pfadt Trans mounts it bolts right up.

Apart from needing offset differential mounts from Pfadt, it's pretty much a direct bolt-in and will ultimately be your strongest option.
