hey guys i jus bought an 04 sudi 1.8t quattro i was wondering what kind of exhaust system,intake,chip,n whatever else would make it a little bit quicker. thax for ur time.

 

Chip- best bang for the buck, look at apr, revo, unitronics, giac
Intake- no gains basically, but looks cool/sounds cool
Exhaust- a couple of hp/tq - sounds cool-look at magnaflow, neuspeed, awe, apr-go on youtube and search.

 

get a 1+ flash from APR or FX flash from GIAC.. you will need larger injectors you can get from a guy named manguyen on audizine just shoot him a PM... that will net you 65hp give or take.. next i would get a FMIC then exhaust last...

 

LOL i just wanted to come back here and to add that if Papachristou will come here, he will definetely say to get a FMIC before anything else ))

 

Its cuz FMIC's kick @$$

I'm a garage-sort-of tuner cuz I don't got deep pockets and I'm still finishing HS so these are my personal reco's if you want to tweak for 1.8t slightly quicker:

Chip- APR 93- $500

Exhaust- Magnaflow mufflers and get an shop to do a stainless steel custom exhaust. (hot rod shops are the best since they know how to make cars roar and can do so w/ a 4 banger also) you'll save a few hundreds than going with a name brand.

Intake- Custom K&N cone filter and heatshield. Get creative on how to block your engine's heat off the intake or some guy on AZ does em for $100.

DV: Bosch 710N $60

DP: ATP testpipe/hi-flo cat $165

FMIC- Ebay intercooler and custom piping for under $200

That's a good way to get a little more oomph out of your ride on a budget. If you want to go all out name brand its useless unless you planning on a BT in the future.

 

haha, thats because you dont have one!!! it just felt so right baby! i knew it was just what she wanted... im really big on the FMIC because so many people told me it wasnt needed but i logged before and after and the 100+ difference in IATs speaks for itself but the butt dyno also proved itself... i used to have a dyno from mchammered on audizine showing 25hp increase i think... anyhow get one and you wont regret it!

also i was so disappointed i spent $1k on my exhaust and test pipe and really couldnt tell any difference... with the addition of the FMIC it really helped

if you are on a budget, watch the classifieds and you can get a good deal on a racetec or ER sport..

 

Whoever thinks that an intercooler isn't a major performance upgrade also thinks that electric superchargers the ****. FMIC's are vital for any turbo'd vehicle especially in the summer months.
