Haha how would a s4 chip work in a a4, the a4 has 2 less cylinders and 1 less turbo, the maps are not even close.

wheel hp I'm going to say around 160ish I would also recommend a upgraded Diverter valve to hold the extra boost you are going to get from the chip as for the intake do not waist your money this will not give you noticable gains if any at all and if you still have some cash to burn at the end of the day look into a boost gauge this will help out down the road with any boosting problems and it is also cool to look at

160 thats it, on thier website it says about 38 hp gain, thats about 208 at the fly, realistically that should be about 170 at the wheels with no exhaust i mean, do audi's have that bad of a drivetrain loss???

but you also get the gain from the launch at the light when your wheels do not spin thtsi is a big problem with FWD cars
