hi i am intrested in moding My a4 advant 1.8 (2004)
turbo I have 6000 to burn and My mod would be :

BBS CH 19" ~ 2000
Stoptech bbk ~2000
and 400 for suspension mod...
is 1600 enough to bump my 180 hp machine into 250 hp area ... ( i am talking flywheel hp not wheel hp)....

thanks in advance...

 

Check out this site. It's not 250hp but with an exhaust system it fits in your budget

Of course there are other brands but the performance and prices are similar.

GIAC, Neuspeed, MTM to name a few.

 

nah if you want 250HP for $1600+ the obvious choice is a K04 upgrade kit with all the trimmings

as for the stoptechs thats obviously just for looks but I would spend $2000 better than a big brake kit like a body kit or a REAL suspension setup ($400?)

Here are some K04 links you can shop around for cheaper prices

Welcome to the forums! Hope you find it helpful and entertaining. As for the upgrades, I've recently seen K-04's for $750.00 and $800.00 for the turbo with gaskets only.

as for the other one, it's in the K-05 thread here on the A4 forum. It's still on the first page, so check that out too. You can get the turbo, or get it with all the goodies for about $1500.00 or so. That' a pretty decent size budget for mods, I'd just reccomend shopping around to make sure you get the best deal for the mod you're looking at.

 

Nah hes got a B6 they want an extra $500-$1000 for a K04 kit, and about the E-05/K-05 so far Ive only seen it made for B6 A4s and TTs

Cypher remember when your shopping that if one place has a kit alot cheaper than another it probly has less stuff in it or no software...you have to really pay attention when shopping for turbo kits take notes[sm=icon_guiness.gif]

 

Seems like your shortchangin yourself a little there on something that could use more attention. $400 is a little low for a good suspension setup. I'd take some of that cash out of your turbo fund an put it into the suspension fund, at least for now until you can get enough dough to do a legitimate turbo upgrade. Just my two cents.

 

Nah Id take it out of the big brake kit fund and keep the turbo upgrade

 

yeah really, audi brakes are pretty good stock.

 

tell that to my smashed front end.[:-]

 

I changed my mind. Take it out of the brakes fund. Brakes aren't really gonna be something you'll need undtil you get a bigger turbo anyway! First go fast, then figure out how to stop!

Don't mind brrman, he's nuts anyway[sm=icon_blah.gif]

jk...I had to get my shot in....
