RE: red line

when you have the govenor removed make sure your tires can happen that speed. it tells u by the speed rating on the tire.

RE: red line

with the APR chip what is the A4/S4 top speed? also I have heard this so many times and no it will not hurt the car at all, the red line is there for a reason... so you can damage the car. If you sit in the red area for an hour a day yeah sure it may do some dmg but bumping it every now and then will not do anything.
