Default Mileage and Modifications

Hey everyone, I am new to the forum, but been around Audis for a while now. I have a 98 1.8t with a few mods(exhuast, mtm chip, and intake). My car has around 155,000 miles on it presently and I am thinking of goin BT. My question, do I go BT with those kinds of miles? I change the oil every 3000 miles and do everything possible to keep the car in great running condition.I just replaced the entire top end 2000 miles ago.Most of the miles are on the highway and the car is never tracked. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Yep. Might be worthwhile to have a leakdown test done too, to be sure the valves are sealing correctly. A shop can handle that pretty easily.
