Default What to upgrade first??

Hey guys, i'm proud to say that i'm the only one in my whole family and relatives that owns a luxury car hahaahha...Last week i just bought a 2000 Audi A4 1.8L T Quattro...I live in Canada so I really really need the all wheel drive for the winter. Performance wise I want more power out of my car, I believe that it's only 150HP stock and i want to make it close to 200HP. So what are the essensial mods i can do to reach my 200HP goal? Upgrade Turbo? Air Intake? Chips? Exhaust System? I wanna know what upgrades to do so I can have my car ready for spring. Thanks guys, hope to hear from a lot of ya'll

chip and exhaust will put you right around 200. but if you plan on going BT then wait on the chip just do some supporting mods first. exhaust, FMIC, FPR, etc.

this question has been asked and answered so many times its ridiculous. use the search feature. chip alone will get you to or just under 200 hp. costs bout $500. for your car go with GIAC. at the same time you will need to upgrade your DV to at least a 710n preferably a forge 007 because your stock DV cant handle the added boost. after that you can do intake, exhaust, test pipe, n75, fmic, fpr, bigger injectors, or go BT.

hey you were a newb as well at one point. i dont recall anyone cussin at you.



Hey what you want to do is since you have a turbo, get that turbo to breathe easy and push more power.

so do this:

chip it (tipchip if you have a tip) (also change the Diverter Valve)
Exaust
Intake

you will be more than happy!

+1 for chip first.

assuming your car is otherwise mechanicaly sound it will make a huge difference. and I'd definetly recommend the forge 007 diverter valve, nothing but quality.
