Default Design a turbo setup

I am new to Audi's and recently bought a 2000 A4 1.8TQ. This summer i am planning on buying a bigger turbo, but i need help. I am looking for something that will put me up to something like 250-260hp. the only upgrades i currently have are apr chip, custom airbox mod, and baileys dv. i am looking to spend around 2000- 2500 bucks. thanks all

use a good book.
you could probably get the power by simple swap. without major mods.
but still need a chip probably for biger turbo.

there is lots of turbos.
many parts interchancheble.
if you get more agresive compresor thiny,and bigger A/R ratio. You could swap, from a broken turbo, into yours. And voilia more boost and flow. like a coustum instalation.

I simply dont have a turbo map. You could probably even simply change A/R change will be suficient.

will a KO4 bring me up to 250hp? i really think i may want something bigger than a KO4. But a KO4 is in my price range, can i get the pc16 package if i were to get one? i have a 2000 but it says the pc16 is for 1999.5
