Default Turbo my 2.8

Looking to turbo my 2.8 L 30v a4. Just wondering if any of you know where i could find myself some low compression pistons or if i would even need them. Im not looking to spend a ton of money on huge hp gains. Just seeing what you guys have encountered. Thanks.

If your not looking to spend tons of money then just drop the idea.

One of the guys on here did that a while back. He was having some trouble though because he was using the stock ECU, so his fuel mixture was effed and he was blowing black smoke out the tailpipes. But here's a picture of his setup:

unless you can find somebody who can write an ecu program for you for the twin turbo forget it. you can do a single remote turbo where the turbo is mounted under the car. you wouldn't need tuning for that because you barely boost anything but you do see a tiny gain lol
