Default intake for 02 a4 1.8TQ

Hmm.... I remember the good old days where people would search and look for answers. Which there were few.

I dont know much about B6 audis, but if it was up to me I would not get it because for some reason i just can't trust Ebay.

Audi filters are very good as they are stock. All you are going to end up paying for is pipeing and a cone filter.

if i was to go back, i would not have spent any money on a CAI.

If you're looking to spend that much, get a Carbino intake. You can get them from www.goapr.com I believe.

EDIT: Psyche, get it from www.ecodetuning.com for 20 bucks cheaper.

Thanks guys. Does an intake really make that much of a difference? I mean spending $350 on the Carbino intake is alot. Does anyone recommend getting a Stage 1 or Stage 1+ APR chip installed? Thanks again!

Intakes dont really do anything in our cars except add nice sound. The carbonario may give you a couple(literally a couple) of extra hp. For 500 dollars you can get teh APR stage 1 chip which adds a lot of power and makes our cars a lot more fun. I have the exact same car as you(silver 2002 a4 1.8t sport) and the apr chip made a huge difference. I just bought tt injectors and will be getting the stage 1+ installed within a week or two so I can let you know how I like that too.

+1. Definitely do the chip over intake.
