Hey, so i just got my 1999.5 a4 1.8t paired to a 5speed quattro. Was wondering where to go with my first mod to get the biggest improvment for the least amount of money (not getting a bigger turbo) i was thinking of going with the GIAC chip cause for $400 +47 hp and +80lbs torque is a huge improvment! This is the best chip i've found, if there is any people find better, or any problems with the GIAC let me know too. aslo i'm having trouble finding an intake, does anyone know of the carbino (i think thats right) intake? let me know how it is. Any help would be appriciated as my car is bone stock right now!

GIAC and APR will get you about the same gains and will give u the most improvement. all your questions are in the newbie guide though as hiwords said, a lot of good info.

 

you have a b5 Giac is the way to go... chipping unlocks all you need for your other mods. I regret not chipping first...
