Supercharger is your only option. This is the G1 setup which is no longer made, and even harder to find. G2 is your best option if you go s/c. Many threads covering the 2.8 and performance options - you can also check out scaudi.com

Yeah, kinda got that impression myself after re-reading it. Can't say i've ever seen a 2.8 engine bay done up in any fashion - i'd be curious to see myself

I've seen minor kinda stuff, Devil painted his intake runners, I know a coupla guys on here have done polished intakes, heat shields, etc. I've been kinda thinkin about cleaning mine up as well, like pick a color and get matching plug wires and hoses and ****, I think it would look kinda cool. Also wanna get rid of the nasty yellow coolant tank

Well use to have an 85 300zx and that there was no kits or anything for them.. so all the goods stuff was all custom and figuring that the A4 is german there is always some crazy custom system. So i was wondering if any one had any pics to help me think outside the box so to speak


But the super charger looks pretty good do you still run premium or do you have to up the octane level? What do your gas milage now that you have one on ??
