yea i didnt want upgrade turbo right away cause i know response would be sluggish not to judge your thinking or experince but doesnt that sound newbie-ish droping a big turbo and 3 in exhaust right way with out taking restriction off the car ? might aswell get a BOV and nos stickers all over my car from company i dont even know i honestly dont mean to offend you but maybe audi are diffrent, also to get 300 hp would I need to change the internals of the car ?

Lol a big turbo upgrade is in no way gunna be sluggish, they hit full boost by 3200 while stock its like only a little less than that, and there are no other restrictions on the motor, the kit takes care of fuel turbo air.... that’s all you need, and with a nice free flowing exhaust there is no way that could be considered rice.... I don’t see how you could even claim that’s at all rice, to make a **** ton of power??? And how does any of that relate to throwing a bov on your car.... just cuz you get a BT doesn’t mean rice it mean you got the money to make your Audi kick ***

well first by restriction i ment small exausht and i dont think stock fuel pump would keep up with that much power srry i thought u ment dropping in just a turbo not a kit but more i was searching for parts i realized they dont sell just a turbo mostly kits also if it hits full boost a 3200 how the turbo spool time??

Stock fuel pump is good for a lot of power. Stock internals are good enough for 400chp...then you need rods, and are good. Although not many people with over 400hp use the stock engine; the usual course of action is to bump up the displacement for that big a turbo.

Tiptronic is only slightly better than a conventional automatic. Don't buy a tip car. They're stupid.

The only consumer dyno we've had so far from that kit is 290whp. Should be enough for high 12s with good clutch and good driver.
