I am going to get my 3.42 in to replace the 2.56 tomorrow along with a new gm converter.

My tuner is 4 hours from me and I am going 3 hours the opposite direction to get the gear in.

My plan was to get the gear in get a fast adapt done on the car and just paddle shift it until I can get it back up to my tuner.

Does anyone forsee a problem driving it with the paddleshifters, I obviously don't plan on beating on the car and if i'm shifting I don't forsee a problem

I know the a4's would go into limp mode, but the a6's have an output speed sensor

so, in theory, the speedo should just be higher???

About 25-30 miles per hour at around 65. It will work tho. I tried it last week
