It&#8217;s twin-turbocharged V10, massive meats and grippy all-wheel drive system is surely the stuff of track-day dreams, but we&#8217;ve always been more enamored by the RS6&#8217;s brutal, road-going civility &#8211; it&#8217;s simply better suited to high-speed cross-country runs rather than full-on tarmac attacks. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/tag\/MTM\/\">MTM<\/a> appears to disagree.<\/p>\n<p>The German tuner of all things Audi has put the sedan variant under the knife to create the RS6 Clubsport, and as with everything from MTM, it&#8217;s a compellingly comprehensive package.<\/p>\n<p>The mods start with a new front lip, carbon fiber rear diffuser, an adjustable suspension and black 21-inch wheels shod in Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 tires. Inside, the factory thrones have been nixed in favor of a duo of carbon fiber Recaro buckets with six-point harness attached to a rear-mounted roll cage that&#8217;s sure to have displaced the rear seats.<\/p>\n<p>Engine upgrades are limited to a high-flow air filter and stainless steel exhaust, but with the help of MTM&#8217;s crack ECU tuners, they&#8217;ve been able to boost output of the turbo&#8217;d 5.0-liter V10 to 720 horsepower (at 6,360 rpm) and and 579 pound-feet of torque (between 2,750 and 6,280 rpm) &#8211; a sizable increase over the stock engine&#8217;s 571 hp and 479 lb-ft of twist. And if you option up the tires to one of the four available compounds (and why wouldn&#8217;t you?), a derestricted top speed of 211 mph can be yours. We think we&#8217;ll take ours in five-door form, sans the cage.
