Does anyone know of any thing to help improve gas mileage for a 2002 Audi A6 Quattro? Maybe a fuel tornado or some other part. If so, help me to find how to get the part and get it installed please!

Quattro + 6cyl = mediocre mileage at best...sorry man.

Tornado's will not help at all... do yourself a favor and toss that idea ;).
Have you done a simply tune up lately? Although a bit pricey, a nice set of Platinum or Iridium spark plugs and new wires will definitely help!
What is the mileage on the car? How long have you owned it?
This ain't no Honda where you get great performance, top notch luxury, AND drop jaw fuel mileage.
Honda, where dreams are born.

Exhaust and intake will help some...again expensive. There is no cheap easy fix for having a hog.

Regular maintenance = happy healthy motor :tu:
Oxygen sensor, clean air filter, proper plugs, and a clean MAF are important to good fuel economy.

get rid of junk you do not need in your car. Reducing weight helps. Properly inflated tires also

What engine do you have? The 3.0 and the 4.2 are gonna be your two least efficent engines in those cars.

I've got something I'm putting on my truck this week. Should see big gains for around $500. Let me see how it works first so i can tell you if its worth it.
