När Audi lanserade nya A6 kom en ny diesel-V6 med dubbelturbo med 313 hästar och 650 Nm – en utmanare till BMW 535d, där motsvarande siffror är 313 hästar och 630 Nm.
Nu lanserar tyska tunaren MTM ett trimkit för BiTDI-motorn. Genom en mjukvaruuppdatering höjs effekten till 386 hästar och vridet till 780 Nm. En ordentlig höjning, särskilt i förhållande till prislappen, som är drygt 16.000 kronor. Det finns också ett marginellt billigare trimkit som ger 370 hästar och 760 Nm för 15.000 kronor.
MTM erbjuder också en uppgradering av bromsarna. 380 x 38-bromsar med åttakolvsok kostar 42.000 kronor. Om bilen är försedd med 20-tumsfälgar finns 405 x 36-bromsar för 56.000 kronor. Dessutom finns ett gäng MTM-fälgar på 18 eller 20 tum.
Går du och sneglar på en BMW M550d kan det alltså vara läge att överväga en Audi istället. En BMW M550d xDrive kostar 753.000 kronor medan en Audi A6 3.0 BiTDI quattro går loss på 517.000 kronor. Med det stora trimkitet från MTM, kombinerat med det största bromspaketet, kostar Audin omkring 590.000 kronor – en besparing på 163.000 kronor.

The Audi A6 3.0 BiTD isn´t a weakling for sure. He is armed with 313 hp and a torque which is as flat as the lake Balaton and this is a guarantor for a standard bump from torque cellar until engine speed limit.
The Audi A6 is the ideal base for the MTM-engineers and technicians for an intervention in the electronic engine management. The result of this high-tech operation is very interesting. 381 hp and a torque of 780 Nm are data that satisfy even the highest claims. This brings in fact the throne of the eight-cylinder diesel engine to jiggle. The MTM engine electronic is in only two hours exchanged against the serial-software. Now let’s come to the costs. This operation is available for barely 1800 € and for 100 € fewer you can have the tamed MTM version with 365 hp and 760 Nm torque. To harness such a boost, good brakes are needed in case of doubt. On the front axle holds a MTM brake system against the rapid propulsion. You can choose between two different varieties. The first one is available in the configuration of 380 X 34 mm with granulated brake discs, stainless-steel-flex-line and eight-piston brake caliper. This exemplar is offered for 4900 €. The second variety is available for 6400 € and offers a 405 X 36 mm rated brake which fits under minimum 20″ rims.
After a test run with the youngest high-tech creation of MTM explains Roland Mayer, boss of the company, that creating superior driving performance is the daily bread for his firm. Mr. Mayer also said that he is fascinated by the enormous retardation which is possible with the brakes.
An F-Cantronic ECU for air suspension elevates and lower the MTM A6 3.0 BiTDI on the right level according to the driving- conditions. Under about 70 km/h is the A6 crouched. On the front axle is the car maximal 25 mm lowered and on the back axle maximal 20 mm. The air suspension will stabilize the car on standard level if it goes above the mentioned data. The F-Cantronic is mounted in 2, 5 hours and costs less than 1740 €.
One MTM achievement principle is that the cars should be strong in accession and beautiful in appearance and this explains why there is such a variety of offers on bimoto rims in every size. For nearly 1730 € is the variety 8 X 18″ available, and for 5230 € you can have 9 X 20″ and this one suits the A6 3.0 BiTDI excellently.
