So if an APR Chip brings the horse power from 150bhp to 206bhp on a B5... What does it do for the B6?
215hp/245lb-ft is Stage I APR chip with the 93 oct. setting
Stage I+ gets you 235hp/275lb-ft but REQUIRES either APR or Bosch Fuel Injectors

each of those is $500 for the chip. and the fuel injectors from APR are also $500
pfffft...235 with a chip and injectors? i don't know about that one...

came straight from APR. Reviews on their previous chips have shown that they dont exaggerate on how their chips do


keep in mind that ALL that extra HP isnt coming directly from the injectors, but that the chip itself is set up differently b/c of the upgraded injectors, alllowing it to be more efficient.

i can see the chip taking it to 215...but 20hp from injectors seems unlikely, especially on a little 4-cylinder...BUT, i'm sure apr knows more than me about audi tuning...so who knows..

The Bosch 380cc Injectors from Euro Code Tuning are only $139...

And larger injectors allow more boost... More boost equals more power... 20bhp is easily found with that.

Stage I+ ECU Upgrade

Stage I+ software, along with larger fuel injectors, provides even more horsepower and torque, raising the output to 235 and 275, respectively. While not an extreme upgrade, the Stage I+ gives the A4 a bit more performance without sacrificing drivability or smoothness. For optimal results, our cat-back exhaust system is highly recommended with the use of the Stage I+ system.

Yeah, thats def a Apr chip, belive me. He prolly has chipped and stock. If so, clue your buttom 2 times for chipped, once for stock.


Brian, the only reason the b6s get some more hp with injecotors is because they have plenty of fuel up top for Apr to up the boost and timing without running out up like what happens with stock injectors.
