forshorties! ^^^^^

 

Seems like this chip (company is local to me!!) would give it more power than an APR tuned 1.8T or 2.0T @ 210HP and 236Tq stage one. The 3.0L can warrant 236hp and mid 240TQ according to what they told me!

I think I'll be doing this tomorrow

You'll be lucky if it gives you a 10hp gain. I say 5-7hp is realistic. That's CHP btw

 

What is CHP? I'm more interested in torque gains anyway. If they can do it tomorrow, I'll "report" back. I'm going from a 550crank HP/TQ GTO to the Audi. Needless to say, the car is awesome, but I have less than 1/2 the power....

a turbo on a 3.0 doesn't sound that good anyway,
met someone who put one on a VW 3.2, if its not stock, it doesn't sound as good,
at least not to me.
The Neuspeed exhaust sounds better by its self.
called my brother today, he's a tech himself, he said the same thing, too much money for little satisfaction.


btw, when someone is asking a question, no need to be rude, state it politely and people would be more willing to listen.
thanks for being nice about me being new to mods auditech79
I dont know everything and am doing my best to learn, give me a break.
much appreciated.


quadehxaust, if you do chip your car, be sure to keep me posted on how well it works.


another question (and all I ask is that you answer nicely)
cam shafts.... saw a few that would work with the A4's but it didn't specify which one.... could it possibly work for my 3.0?

 

the bummer about the 034motorsport chip is there's no dyno to prove the increases. Same here: http://www.lltek.com/sprintboost_plus.htm I wonder which is better.

As far as a cam, I had one in my GTO, and it helped make a lot more top end power, but nothing down low..... do a search on google for cams, and you'll see a lot of info, about size/lobe, durations, etc..... I've never heard of anyone doing a cam in an audi. I'd maybe look at the CAI, exhaust, etc., as safe "bets" on some increased power.

Honestly, this car is a "dog" compared to my GTO - I don't believe how powerful that 5.7L was (corvette engine). Anyway, I'll be trying to find a few things to make this a bit more peppy - but I LOVE the car...

I will let you know if they have a dyno of a 3.0 A4 (mine is a 6-speed) with their chip...and if I do it...I'll see if they have a money back guarantee - if I don't like it, just return...

I'll see what I can get on google as far as cam info,
my stepdads 1970's charger has a cam in it so thats where i got the idea from.

I have the A4 3.0 6-speed as well mine has the Ultra Sport Package

any feed back would be great, thanks.

 

I have been in a chipped unitronic 3.0L A4 with a full magnaflow exhaust, it really wasn't a blow the doors off S4 power, but you could feel a slight difference.
As far as camshafts, that trick only works on big *** V8's with larger strokes. Not to mention you have 4 camshafts and it would cost a crap ton for about 10 horsepower MAX.

bare with me here:
That's the sight for the magnaflow, it has the 1.8 and the 2.0 on there but no 3.0, could I still use one of those for my car?
And whats the difference between magnaflow and neuspeed?
the neuspeed is $995 compared to the $1,117 for magnaflow.
My brother and his friends (who have VW's) pretty much swear by neuspeed.
is one going to give me better performance than the other?

a cam is out of the picture.


edit:
listened to the sound files for magnaflow, magna seems to sound louder in car than the neuspeed and claims to gain 8hp and 12lb-ft. (on the '04 1.8L)
I can't find the gain for neuspeed

found this too:
http://www.dubtuning.com/shop/tuning...di-p-1161.html
"Dyno verified gain of 14.2 HP and 14.8 FTLBS TORQUE corrected to the crank."
This guy who owns DubTuning I've met personally and he's pretty local.

 

hey now i wasnt rude!
