Sorry to digress here.

Ian, when an S8 is retro fitted with an 01E 6-speed manual, obviously the ECU has to be coded, so it doesn't try communicating with an absent TCU, thus throwing a CEL.

Once coded, will the engine still have the S8's 7,000 rpm redline? And is this something you'd be interested in helping me out with? Of course, I'll cross your palms (and soles of your feet) with silver, and pour quality Budweiser down your throat with a rather large funnel!
