Default 1st audi

Hello I just got a 08 a4 cabrio and I wanted to know how to go about getting more power out of it. I've had 4 bmw's but never an Audi so I'm kind of not sure which way to go. Any help would be great, thanks.

tuning, boltons, same as any other car. gotta ask yourself what kind of budget you have and what kind of power you want to make and where.

Depends on what engine you have.

^ good point... I naturally assumed it was a 2.0T. If so, chip it and be happy

Brad, most likely it is. I think in the 8 years I've had my Audi I've probably seen 2-3 V6 cabrios at most.

APR has a record of reliability, as with GIAC and a couple others.

Just make sure you upgrade your diverter valve (also sold on the APR website or wherever you get your tune flashed). It will stand up to the extra boost. Trust me, you're gonna love it.
