Im not too into the 2.8 so i dont know what you can do. However I have seen post after post about modded 2.8's, I just never pay attention to them. Do a search.

Theres no such thing as a cheap Mod for a 2.8 that you will notice and that is worth the money. I suggest just saving and getting a supercharger! Then be happy. Maybe springs, rims and that kinda stuff

3-5 thousand i believe. Not cheap. Just go trade your car for a 1.8t. Then the modificationdoor becomes wide open.

Well, there is a chip for the 30v 2.8 (like yours). I think GIAC makes it. Doesn't add much, though. At the top of the A4 section there are several threads which say TOP next to them. There are two of these which you should check out: the one that says Audi Links, and the one that says GOOD THREAD LINKS (New Members Start Here). Also, the search function is of great value. It is located at the top of every page,just belowthe banner.

Good luck, and welcome to AF!
