Default Extra bucks.....

So I been thinking what my plans should be for Spring of 08


I have done everything engine wise to my car as far as stocl turbo goes I think...


AEB Engine
GIAC
K03
Borla Exhuast
Test-Pipe


I thought about a K04 but for 1500 Why not just go BT and at that point BT cost what?? 2,000 to 3,000? Why not save and buy an s4?

So the S4 will be the future?

You also need to consider gas!

I guess people only spend that money when they plan to keep their car.

But they do lose the value when you sell your car later on, unless you sell it to an Audi fanatic, then it's a different case.

After you have that garage, things will open up. No more installation/labor fees for things.

I hate how labor sometimes end up costing more than the parts.

Ok I am lost. Please excuse my ignorance (and current state of inebriation). Judging by your gallery, it looks like you've got a B5 with a V6 (2.8?). Ah, I am confused! What is an AEB? I'm more familiar with the 1.8T's. And you've got a KO3? My brain just overloaded. Please post what you've got... I'm sure everyone else knows what you're talking about but I am supremely confused right now. Are you thinking about an S4? 2.7 bi-turbo FTW!
