Audi RS6 Gets a Tune Up from Reifen Koch and Receives Power Boost
Although the production-ready Audi RS6 has enough power with its V10 engine which generates 580HP, a lot of tuners have been volunteering to “make things better”. Just recently, German tuning company Reifen Koch came out with a performance enhancing package for the RS6. This included some modifications in the engine, and of course, brand new alloy wheels.
The engine kit shows off a recalibrated ECU, a brand new sports filter, and a customized exhaust system to boost the V10 engine’s power. The total power boost is from 580HP to 700HP, and 650 Nm of torque to 790Nm. With these engine mods, the RS6 can now reach a top speed of 205 mph.
The package is completed with a new set of 22” alloy wheels. The lightweight wheels were produced by Schmidt and covered by high speed tires fitted at 265/30 22 all-around. The price of the package has not been announced yet, and reviewers note that the tuner is fairly new in the industry.
The Audi RS6 was originally launched by the company in 2002. Then, it came out again in 2008 with quite a number of performance enhancements. The latest generation of the RS6 production-line is powered by a Lamborghini V10 engine according to Audi Talk. It can sprint from zero to 60mph in 4.1 seconds, and since the latest tuning from Reifen Koch gives us no updates about the engines sprinting prowess, we’re guessing that nothing much has changed.
Previous tune ups for the RS6 include the RS6 Clubsport created by MTM, a Wettsteten/Ingolstadt tuner.
