Default Modlist for the Avant

ok I will have about 2 grand (after car taxes, credit card payment, etc) to drop on some major shiznat for the car.
Suspension is already bought, wheels are bought... Chip will be bought immediately. K04 is out of the question for now.

My plans for all mods for the new Avant. Both small and large in the following order.
- Suspension and Wheels (roll fenders)
- GIAC Chip
- Forge Diverter Valve
- Electric Boost gauge - center vent
- Samco Coolant Hose Kit
- Painted front grill surround - same color as car
- Brushed Aluminum tiptronic shifter plate
- New stereo components (speakers, amps, subs)
- Indash 7" touchscreen
- Carputer 2.0
- Greddy Turbo Timer
- Borla Cat-back Exhaust

anything else you guys can think of I can throw in there?

HaHa! As Shang Tsung from Mortal Kombat (the movie) would say," IT HAS BEGUN!"[sm=smiley33.gif]
..sorry, childhood memory...

What boost gauge are ya lookin at? I love that center vent look! another VDO?

Is the DV and the Hose Kit more for show or are they for extending the longevity after you chip it. Those hose kits come in pretty colors..that's mainly why I ask(pretty or needed?...or both).

Hey! And let's see some pics before you mod this thing! I want before and afters!

Can't wait to see this thing! *feels giddy all over*

Good luck!

hmm Xenon action is a possibility. That would be last on the list tho.

Transverse:
There will definitely be before and after pics. The DV is going in to replace the stock one, which will likely die within an couple months of the chip going in. The Samco hoses I have always wanted, but they serve no real purpose except for show (unless your stock hoses are deteriorating). BTW - I'll have those pics this evening.

I am going to attack this Avant like a mad scientist.

Brrman...I am looking for a 7 inch in dash touch screen display..but I was wondering if you or imolas4 knew a good and cheap site to get one and exactly, again i repeat, EXACTLY what I need to set it up. Right now the front dash for my 99 2.8 Quattro is stock. So I was wondering what I needed to set it up. Also I have a wooden trim? If I do get a indash 7" touch screen monitor would that ruin the trim or be able to keep the wooden trim?
Thanks guys

Right on brrman! So it's on, eh? I think you covered it all, at least that I can think of now. Although, how about brakes? Did you do anything to your other A4? What color is your Avant? I forgot. You were able to save the wheels I take it? Or maybe, maybe even better yet, the insurance company ponied for new ones? Whe do you get it? Or do you already have it?
