We had beautiful weather today so I decided to take her out, give her a nice wash, and post some before and after pics of my A4 to M6 conversion.

Looking good Taso.
Have to repeat myself but those blackout's look awesome. I'll probably be "agonizing" the pros and cons about them until next Spring before I buy them.

I had the conversion done at a local speed shop down the street from my house. The work took a couple of weeks since they were swamped with other projects.
The conversion kit was $1,750.00 with shipping. The labor was $700.00. If you're going to do the conversion, expect to pay any where around $2,000.00 - $3,000.00 depending on where you get your kit. I got mine at www.lambertsalvage.com
I put my 4L60E on Ebay, but the deal never went thru. If anyone's interested I still have it.
As for Zaino, I've still yet to use it. I never got around to ordering it. I think I'll get it next Spring since Old Man Winter's coming.Hercules

And you're right about the beast part, she sure woke up! I never knew my car had so much power with the M6. It's a whole new car to me.

Were the new rear gears included in that kit you spoke of? I went to the site you references, but only found 2 T56s -- no kits.http://encoding.n3.net <--- for all your DVD and audio CD "backup" needs

The trans came complete with everything you needed for the conversion. Pedals, shifter, console piece, master cylinder, etc. The only problem I had in the conversion is my reverse gear, it grinds due to a bad synchro. But I'm not really sweatin' it since it's only reverse and I'll probably get it fixed next Spring.Hercules
