Oh and does Chipping or any other mods hurt the engine or void warranties?

 

just forget about the Navi and get the 2.0T

 

Yeah. Chipping doesn't hurt the engine. A dealer *might* deny you warranty coverage if they find that you've modified your ECU, depends on the dealer in question, but also whether they find out. I think that nowawdays a chip is just a reflash. Impossible to tell from the engine bay unless they drive it around.

 

I'd forget the NAV and get a 2.0T

The 6 speed manuel is MORE MORE fun to drive.
Like some of us, I can't stand the auto tranny, it's annoying.
I also prefer the sound of the turbo.

There is no chip for the 2005.5-up yet.
But IMHO, now on, chips come "reflashable", so we can swich to the original back.

 

doesnt jest have nav in his 2.0

 

For what it's worth, if you're not able to find a 2.0T w/ Nav+, retrofitting an RNS-E system into your B7 could be an option. It may not be the optimal solution, but it's a lot easier to add a navigation system if you end up missing it than it would be swapping engines if you ultimately regret the 3.2.

Just a thought...good luck with the shopping!

 

You could always go with an aftermarket NAV system. I mean... your apparently super rich; you can afford to have someone fabricate a custom system that looks stock.

 

Take the money you were going to spend on a NAV and keep 400 children from starving to death in Niger!
