Default 6 spd auto

Probably old news but here goes. Is there a modification that will speed up shifts on the auto and still be reliable and drivable? Thanks Mike

I know Chuck Cow is working on his '14 A6 tune, and the Diablo tuner has some trans. parameters that are adjustable, but I've seen no reviews on either yet.. Waiting on info myself.

Yes. Any reputable LSx performance shop can tune the 6L80E to run VERY well.
