Default 2011 GS A6 Tuning

What are my options when getting a tune for my automatic GS? I understand that tuning can make the shifts firmer and a bit quicker in paddle shift mode, but can the sport mode be modified? Similar to current Sport mode options on most cars, each gear is held longer to higher RPMs; can this be programmed in my GS. I want each gear to shift closer to 4,000-5,000 RPMs.

A custom tune would be best, find the best LS performance shop you can find near you and give them a call. What state are you in?

Had Futral do a custom tune on mine (2011 Base A6) earlier this year..... The difference is incredible. First we did the dyno tune, then he real time data logged on the road to tweak it perfect. I highly advise it!!!!!!
