injectors

So i want some power in my audi. Its a 2003 1.8t I hear alot of talk about injectors and a chip. That should be  a sufficent  amount of power for an audi right. I dont need a crap load of power just something to make this car a little more reputable. and i dont want to get caught up upgrading every part in the car and spending all my kids college savings. What brand or what type should i get. I just need a little steering in the right direction so a lil help fellas.

look into
APR
GIAC
REVO
 
they are the big 3 and u cant really go wrong wit any of their big injector programs

^^ for chip... As far as injectors go, you have a few options... Genesis 380cc injectors from USrallyteam.com or OEM TT225 386cc injectors or Siemens-Deka 380cc.  Genesis is the cheapest as its aftermarket (should run you around $275 for the set), and the OEM TT225 are more expensive which should run you around $350+ for the set.  If you troll around on enough forums, you might be able to catch a set for sale in classifieds, but just to let you know used sets of injectors are a hot commodity and sell really fast on forums... and to state the obvious, you will consume about 12% more fuel than the stock injectors on average.

Revo fan here. But they're all good chips.

i have revo stage II ( cheapest big injector file ) and running the genesis 3800cc. for under 800 its a good combo. huge difference
 
my 2 cents

okay so changing the injectors will make my car suck down more 4.00 gas? I mean power comes with a price i know. So are installing the injectors a fairly simple process. im not to familiar with it. And also with the chip how do i go about getting a new one. Do i send it out and the company sends me a new one do they program it to the specs in my car and what im running? if you do have a chip how is it working for u.??

Ok, I am also a new owner of a 2005 Audi A4 1.8T. I just purchased a APR Stage 1 Chip and I love it, I loved it so much that I found some OEM Audi TT225 injectors online for 300 bucks and installed them which took me like 30 minutes and jumped up to APR Stage 1+ kit. so for around 800 bucks I jumped my numbers to 229HP and 271TQ, thats a +59HP and +105TQ increase. I got a itg filter but im gonna upgrade to and intake soon, i also have been looking at exhaust but can't decide between the APR sport or the AWE exhaust. Well this is what I have done so far, let me know what you decide and what kind of numbers you get.

okay but that didnt answer my question at all.

Injectors took like 30 minutes to install as stated, and it was very easy to do. Yes it will take more fuel I range between 300 - 400 miles per tank about 24MPG but i get on it alot. As for the ECU the APR chip and i think most others they can just reflash the ecu which takes about 15 minutes. With the APR chip you get free upgrades, like i went from stage 1 to stage 1+ for free and when i upgrade to a k04 they will upgrade it free also. As for your question i did answer your first post I didn't hit on your second one till now. I love my chip and it was well worth the money!!!

alright thanks that helped alot.

You will probably want to get a new diverter valve while you're at it since the stock one won't be able to handle the added boost that the chip provides.

If you're looking for assistance in changing your injectors check out http://a4mods.com/index.php?page=webcontent/pages/injectors.html there is a pretty simple set of instructions, and it has plently of pictures. Like people said, should only be about 30 mins.

thanks alot for the input. the next thing i plan on doing is switching my diverter valve. So any good brands on the diverter u can point me too??

The 710N DV is the cheapest solution and a direct stock replacement.
 
I just started with REVO stage 1, 710N DV and some new coil packs, you will probably need coil packs when you get a chip as the extra stress seems to blow the old ones.
 
I would get exhaust before injectors and a more aggressive chip. Exhaust improves gas mileage, turbo spool up and top end power. A larger intercooler is really needed for higher boost pressure. Most people just get the chip, then find out they need the other stuff too for it all to work correctly. It is pretty annoying to feel the power fall in high revs.

dont listen to this post (except for the 710n part)

chips dont put any extra stress on coilpacks. most of the time its cause people dont gap their plugs down to .028 when they get chipped. the stock intercooler works fine on the stock turbo, you dont need an fmic. and the power falling at high revs is inherent to the k03. its made for torque not high end power, so it falls off before redline. adding things like an exhaust will help slightly but you'll never carry power to redline with a k03.
