I'm going to have to believe you on where you said it's not tuneable though. With that, I'm not going to attempt it. I'll keep this for a few more months, sell it and get a 30V or 1.8t.

Its tuneable, with a lot of patience and a lot of money, thats where you run into some costs... go with a stand alone system

BTW I dont care how long you have been in the "Community" because you are obviously going off of what other people are telling you. Not what you have seen first hand

EDIT: But its ok, I too was one of those people that was damn certain that it couldnt be done... then I stuck my foot in my mouth, when I actually saw it.

...how can it be impossible? technically... you can s/c anything and see gains... don't see why it's impossible to s/c a 12V. Expensive and stupid... yes, but not impossible. Due to the low potential of the 12V compared to the 30V, I don't see why anyone would touch a x/c on a 12V when it's clearly going to cost MUCH more money for something that would get spanked my a 30V

exactly what im saying.. its not cost effecient. But it can be done. I know a guy who has actually done it, because he basically said ahh F*ck why not.. and just kept spending. completely custom setup though

no one has ever successfully s/c a 2.8, and you will not be the first.

I hope your ready to feel like a douche bag.... I just remembered his SN on Audiworld so do a search... "wnaudi12v" and yes i have seen this car in person.. I used to work at the shop that did the work on it. Also you will notice that other members actually witnessed it first hand as well..

So if this guy can get the stuff made for a cheap cost then he should do it.. but if not, then dont even think about it. its going to cost you a pretty penny
