Default Bad Idea?
How bad would it be to keep my stock exhaust on with a apr I+ chip and injectors?

Semi related subject, what are the gains from a FMIC, there kind of expensive would it even be worth it if you don't have a turbo upgrade?

yea I wouldn't worry about a FMIC till you upgrade to a bigger turbo as for the exhaust system that will not void your warrenty

Without a turbo upgrade a FMIC is not needed. With the K03, some people ahve reported a drop in performance due to the pressure losses across the FMIC as opposed to the stock SMIC.

I do work at a Audi dealership and we have seen a few Audi's come in with exhaust systems no a big deal at all but if you want to be 100% sure ask your dealer some are pretty ****
