Revisiting this thread in hopes that someone will hear the plea of those of us A6 guys who are looking for a brace.
ECS did say on another thread that they were going to do a run of them and then later told me via email that they were too busy at the time to make them. I had the impression that they had done some before?
I've been looking at the various pictures of the A6 brace Subfloor made and comparing that to the ECS M6 brace and it seems that all that would be needed would be the top bracket for the trans bellhousing, and everything else is the same, except that the two lower tensioner rods aren't used on the A6? Do I have that wrong? Surely, it can't take that much for someone to make that top bracket and delete the lower bracketry and rods to convert their M6 kit to an A6 kit? I guess now that everyone is C7 crazy, we'll get left behind and will have to resort to making our own parts?
