Hello all, can anyone help with any info on C7 RS6 PE???
Discussion
Hello all, long time reader but first time poster. 
I'm looking for anyone who knows anything about a 2016 C7 RS6 Performance in blue, pervious registrations are NL66NUP and N14AYL.
I won this car on one of those raffle sites (yes I have read the long threads on here
) and was advertised as standard 605bhp with a Akrapovic exhaust on it.
I recently took the car to Awesome for a full health check which I would like to say it passed with flying colours with only a couple of very minor points that will be sorted out now, but apart from that the car is a good one.
What was picked up on the check is the exhaust is not an Akrapovic (not a problem) but full decat downpipes, a custom made mid section and a standard back box, the car does sound awesome so this is OK by me by not having the Akrapovic fitted.
I was then told my car was stage 2 tuned with these mods as it would be required to change downpipes etc.
The car always felt brutal and fast and if it is stage 2, it probably explains things.
If anyone could help with previous owners or who just knows the car, any info would be greatly appreciated and welcome. I mainly would like to find out who actually tuned the car to have a chat about what is was mapped for etc.

Can't help with the question but congratulations on the win and if it's the one I remember seeing it sounded amazing 
I am surprised it isn't as described as I remember them quoting the cost of the exhaust several times as if they had a receipt for it. I'd be more concerned about whether it would pass an MOT and the costs to make it do so if not as I can't imagine parts are particularly cheap or readily available second hand

I'm guessing you saw it on Rev Comps???
Yeah they quoted the £9k exhaust a few times lol, but it does have the fake tips on it lol
The car is spot on and they are good lads so I am very happy, even more as seen as it was my very first go on one of these sites.
Parts are not cheap at all, it is MOT'd till next April so time to sort that out.

I did see it on revcomps and if it was your first ticket I've just realised I don't like you very much!
Did revcomps put it through an MOT as well? I know they usually advertise as having 12 months so that seems dodgy if they did. Assuming you would need at least cats and a remap to have any chance of passing

It will be mapped to produce the most drivable power and torque. That is, to make it as fast as possible. A dyno test will probably show about 700 bhp with similar torque. No cat = MOT fail. Not really any point contacting previous owners, though details will be on your docs of at least one. No invoices with the paperwork you got with the car?
ETA plenty of decent mappers about, doesn't really matter who did the original you can get it dynoed and logged at your leisure.

As said the car is insanely fast, can be too fast at times and my previous 300bhp Golf R was quicker in some situations but it does make you smile.
No paperwork as such with the car except the original books and Audi service history.
It was only a thought to see if anyone might know the car, I'm happy with it but would be nice to know more back ground on it.

I have tried on there but I don't think it the busiest site anymore,https://rs246.com/
Used to be on it regularly years ago when I had my RS4.
