auto or manual trans? if it's auto, there's a thread about a trans reprogram somewhere on this forum.

if it is auto you can get a tipchip which will speed up the shifting. IF manual I beleive clutch short shifter would do the same thing.

I really think your only options would be a turbo or super charger with an exhaust system. Other than that you could get APR Engine Snub Mount, APR Shift ****, APR Tuned Badge!

Does it make any difference if the transmission is tiptronic or not?
And what would be the best supercharger

tip vs 6 spd ... i dont know that the 2.8 came in a manual?? but yes its always something to worry abou t... I'm sure if you don't go crazy you will be fine as i have seen stage 3+ in 2.7s and the tip trans is fine

you would want to go with a smaller supercharger as your just trying to get a little power not blow the engine apart
