Is that possible for an A3 DSG to gain up to 300HP after chipped, CAI and full exhaust DP?

Anyone has BOV on their A3 DSG? I wonder what it's like on an audi? Same results like the GTI, EVO, STI as in the loudness of it??

You won't be up to 300hp with those three mods, unless you have the 100 octane program, then maybe. You'll need a big turbo to break the 300hp mark. Now you'll be a lot over 300lbs of torque though. I'll let you know before too long. I'm only having a CAT-Back exhaust and CAI, but I'll be running the car on a dyno shortly afterwards. The HP of a DSG shouldn't be any different than the manual transmission. If you're ambitious enough then spend the bucks and find out. Make sure to post your results.

I now that EVO has a new Forge unit for his 2.0T A4. Might get some sound clips when he gets it installed. Probably be happening anytime now.

Cheers!

careful asking BOV questions here, if you do a search for BOV you will find everyone who asks that question gets flamed for being a ricer. the Euro world isn't friendly to BOV's, and its just blamed on our DV without worrying about finding any possible solutions.

just remember when you hump the car to those powers the engine suffers significantly with ware and tare just like the race cars ( some only last the race )

chipped, CAI and full exhaust cat back, probably wont destroy the engine or car though, right?

Thanks for enlightening me, guys.

it wont destroy it but it will need more regular maintenance than the norm like the timing belt ( remember the forces you put on the engine lower its life expectancy ) just a little advice
