2002 A4 1.8t quattro 5 Speed Manual

Any1 installed these chips on their car???
How Is The Performance?
Would Stage 1 + wear your engine quicker Than Stage 1

Would Any chips Cause engine Problems Please Let me know Cause I'm Thinkin Of Gettin Some!!!!!

 

I wouldnt worry about it, these engines can handle a lot of power for a long time. If the tune is good and the hardware is right, there should be no short term problems. It may reduce the life of the engine by 10- 20k miles, but these engines are known to go to 200k+ miles with no big issues, even head gaskets, so if by adding more power you reduce the life of the engine from 200k miles to 190k miles.. Who gives a crap. By the time you get to that mileage youll be ready for a new car or will be able to afford a rebuild if needed.

 

A wise man once said

"He who brakes one will replace with better" (ok so maybe I made that up)

In other words - Look forward to breaking some stuff

If you break your K03 buy a k04, same goes for injectors, spark plugs, wires, etc.....

Engine wear goes with the same line as a un-moded engine -
The harder you drive it the more chances you have somthing will go wrong

 

what does the plus consist of?

 

The + is for use with 440cc injectors.

 

this is the second person to think they use 440cc injectors

THEY USE 380 or 386cc INJECTORS DEPENDING ON THE TUNER COMPANY

and no it shouldnt be a problem with the engine
but they say u should get a FMIC though

 

is a apr chip stage 1 bad for the tranny on a tiptronic?

 

no but a tip chip will help the tranny

 

where do you get a tip chip at? and is it the same price as a reg. chip from what i read most people say apr is better, thanks for the help, link would help too
if you start having problems with the chip you can just take it out correct?

 

i have a 2002 tip quattro with the ARP basic programin and im all good
