of course now that seems liek a great idea LOL but no i sorta like my 2.8 its seems to be very well taken care of and reliable and that is what i really need. after im done with school in about 2-3 years ill up grade. hmm maybe an RS6 sounds good depends on what job im offered!

 

Most audis are well taken care of, go drive another one you'll be suprised! You picked a motor that is good at what it does in stock form ( gas milage, reliable) If you change the car with mods you could be losing the things you bought the car for.

 

Thats what I am starting to realize. I dont think i really want to do much power upgrades right now. I live in the San Jose, CA area and i get to drive highway 9, a nice mountain road, and it really grips and has enough power for me right now. Im used to big trucks and such so this is practially a race car! But i was thinking about an ECU upgrade and maybe exhaust to get better gas mileage. Do you think that would be worth it??

 

Only you can decide young grasshopper.......













I would have gotten a turbo, but that's neither here nor there In the end you have to drive it daily not me so do what makes you smile

 

I thought there was only an ecu upgrade available for the 30v 2.8??? You are pretty much limited to ecxhaust and intake. I would skip the intake though, they tend to take away some low end power and that would suck if your car is a 12v. An exhaust should open things up enough for you to notice some gains and it will sound better.

 

how would it be hard to make a 200hp 12V don't they already come with 172hp stock, all u would need is something like a cone filter/heat shield, free flow exhaust, and a couple other things like ecu and trick the MAF sensor
