dud if you got the cash get a custom gauge thingy (speedo,tach.etc) and you get them to put in a boost gauge in stead of some of the useless gauges, like the gas gauge for example.. i know whenever i look at the gas gauge i get real sad, but when i look at the boost gauge i get real happy. soooooo why not swap the gas gauge for the boost gauge. Brilliant!!!!!

Two completly different things.

Don't Bitch at me. take it from my expeirience, stay conservative. the more you modify the more problems you have. this is not just for audis all cars have this problem. once you start moddifing the car it puts an enormous amount of stress on every other part. I'm not telling you not to do it, im mearly "warning" you the David_K way. which seems alot like bitchin, buts its not. i sent you a PM explaining all this, and an apology.

BTW i dont want anybody quotin me and pokin holes in this statement im really not in a good mood. (the old ladys havin her period which means no sex for me)

I think there is nothing wrong in giving someone advise. The smart people are those who learned from someones mistakes. I think you are doing a good deed by letting someone know what could go wrong before they get themselves in trouble financially. Good work David!
