Default 1996 Audi A4 2.8 12V mods?

I have had my audi for about half a year now, and im loving it! I dont think i will drive any other car now. One problem that I have had though is that there really seems to be no mods for my car and i have been looking everywhere. So for the only thing i have been able to accomplish is getting bilstein shocks and h&r springs which lowered the car i think 2 inches, but i did improve that handling. I was wondering if anyone could let me know of some mods i could do.

just search :] you can do plenty of cosmetic mods if you are going towards that. if you ahven't switched your headlamps to one piece and your tail lights to not stupid, i'd do that.

My son wants to replace the headlights; I guess that counts as a mod.

I wouldn't mind having an oil pressure gauge, but at least this car has an oil temperature gauge and a volt meter, rare in today's dumbed-down market.

there's a lot of things you can do to the 12v, but getting HP gains will cost big bucks....i have a 12v, look at my sig, you can do the mods i have listed....i also have your same suspension setup now..and ss brake lines, and an m3 lip spoiler...you can also get a bored throttle body or have your own tb bored..you can get your intake manifold ported and polished, same with your exhaust manifold...high flow cats & mufflers or change to a custom single cat setup...check out the 12v development forum on audiworld.com

http://www.audiworld.com/forum/12v.html

A WORD OF ADVISE: questions on the 12v forum are better answered when the user has clearly done a fair amount of searching before asking questions...there is a ridiculous amount of useful information already posted on the forum

bentframe,

What kind of head lamps are those? They are pretty damn nice. definitely looks better than the stock. Same for the tail lamps.

they are just the 99.5-01 headlights and tails (as well as the lower fog lights)...the taillights are stock, the fogs i put a yellow lamin-x film on, and the headlights i did the clear corner mod to (removed the old amber insert)

Default 1996 Audi Quattro 12v mods do exist

The company Motodyne offers a few mods for the Audi A4 12v motor. Their webstie is www.motodyne.com. I am looking into the supercharger they offer for my 12v Audi.
