Default A4 aftermarket questions

Ok I've been looking around for a good bit for some after market items for my '97 A4 2.8. Anytime I find an exhaust system or intake, they are always for the 1.8T. I was wondering if any of those items would fit my 2.8 model? Its probably a stupid question, but I need some clarification. I checked out Supersprintna, Sfxperformance, Rimier, Neuspeed, and some other sites so far.

you picked the wrong car for modding, there are really no aftermarket parts for the 2.8 especially the 12v ones. For exhaust your best bet is to go custom and for ntakes its pretty much a cone filter for a sportier noise. if you want to mod your car I suggest you get a 1.8T

As above, not much from a performance perspective that can be done with the 2.8. Custom exhaust will free up some power. Lack of possible engine mods frees up $$$ for cosmetics and sound system.

holy crap thats expensive, you can do much better for way less man, check out magnaflow mufflers or remus, then have some custom pipes made and you will be golden
