My '02 3.0 quattro. Potential mods. Input/suggestions are welcome
Hey guys. I've owned my 3.0 quattro for about 2 years now. It has about 115k miles and I plan on keeping it for the next 5-10 years (self control dependent of course). Recently married with a kid on the way so I can't spend all of my money in one place. Just wanted to get some outside opinions on shtuff.
So far I've only changed headlights (Helix Devil Eyes)/taillights (Helix LED) and installed a custom Pioneer amp/box setup (thank you a4mods.com for the walkthrough on that one). I would love to make some more changes, including neuspeed exhaust, a snub mount, maybe an ecu upgrade. Possibly a PES G3 supercharger down the road if I'm feelin spunky.

Here's my car and bike. You may notice that those are factory headlights... I had to swap them back in because I fried one of the aftermarket ones.

I have had the G3 supercharger kit for almost 3 years with 0 problems except an aux pulley that went bad which means no power steering until the part is fixed but it winds up nice and cranks out some some solid boost. The kit brings out the beast for sure.
I've had 2 different exhaust systems both custom built by a local shop and both were worth every penny. I had an ECU upgrade initially and saw minimal gains in the performance department and at almost $900 I was thoroughly disappointed. I didn't buy PES's ECU mod and I'd rather not bash the company that I bought it from because I'm not about that. but all n/a motor ECU mods are basically crap. I've made the mistake more than once.
I'm not trying to pitch you a sale but I do have the kit up for liquidation $900+Trade (some stock 3.0 parts). If interested here is the link to my ad on audiforums: https://www.audiforums.com/forum/sho...d.php?t=169694. If not, its been an awesome mod for me and I would recommend the kit to anyone who has ever pondered upon tuning past an exhaust and a lowering kit.
Good luck.
