I am looking at either the GIAC or the VAST tip chip. I am not sure if VAST makes one for the A4 though. There are a lot of S4 guys with the Vast chip who love it.

I wouldn't advise a level 10 upgrade. I've heard that it's unbelievably rough, and always clunks.

Much like the ECU, you would probably have to do the 3-day turn-around to have it installed. Ireally don'tknow how hard it is to solder in, but maybe find an authorized GIAC dealer or performance shop near you that deals with chips?
