Adding Horses to the 2.8
 

I want to know if theres any hope.. any way of adding power or at least reducing weight on the 2.8(in my case 97' 2.8 12v). i've spent close to a thousand bucks on my audi so far... 300 for a new rack... 260 for springs... 100 for HID's and led reverse lights and other led's, resonator delete, blah blah blah... but now i wanna add a lil more horsepower to it... i tried the short ram intake but that shit made my performance worse cuz it was sucking up hot air literally it was inches away from the exhast manifold... i know theres a supercharger for my car but thats out of my price range... is there any direct fit parts that i can put on it from a s4? or a 30v? any advice at all is helpful thanks

come on man.... this has been answered waay too many times.

I bet you that you very well know the answer to your own question.

lose some weight, when i drove around with nothing but a driver seat and steering wheel it was much more peppy.

Nitrous is it, and you probably can't run much. Motodyne supercharger is pointless and not worth it - shitty tune and incomplete kits. It's the old story - sell it and buy a boosted Audi.

^ That x 100. You can ask Jeremy; me and him have talked about this topic dozens of times and covered almost every angle. Between the two of us we're Encyclopedia Britannica when it comes to 2.8 B5s, boost, etc.

What's EFK?

Electric Fan Kit. Removing the clutch fan.

Until 034 gets there single turbo kit together with a good tune there's really nothing worth doing aside from-

Make it look better, sound better, turn better, and brake better.

Oops, sorry 'bout the double post.
