Youve got a lot to learn. Youl be better better of getting a 2.7tt engine and slapping that on if you are a HP freak. Which im guessing you are not, in that case you mite be happy with a supercharger
kit but dont be too sad when you see a few 1.8T go flying past you..

Meaning supercharger kit aint worth it and your engine will not survive long with a well breathing turbo..

you can turbo it, but it will cost you way more then the car is worth and because of how big the engine is you most likely will have to rear mount the turbo's. The other option is a 5K supercharger. But you honestly might as well get yourself an S4 instead.


And listen to Josh, please use the search function for questions first, most likely, we have already answered them at least 20 times.

your **** is so annoying to read. Sell your 2.8 and get a different car.

For a quick fix, you would buy the 2.7tt and slap it in. But, if you want to do something, I think that the turbo setup would be the better way to go.
