Only way to know for sure is to hook up a gauge but its probably not much. Maybe 9-10 tops.

a gauge wont add to your hp output. i dont think thats what he meant i think he meant psi but i dont know if that sounds right. if you are looking for gauges you can find em in the audi links section. some are the center vent installation, others on the a-pillar (if you dont have an airbag there).

I know the guage doesn't add to the power! I was looking for the HP gains that the turbo ITSELF adds. In other words, what is the HP of the engine alone.

Sorry if I have been asking this question in a dumb way.

Thanks guys.

I heard the B7 doesn't even need a driver.
