Default Another newbie

Hi .Just bought an Audi A4 1.8t quattro.Love the build quality but not the performance.Dont get me wrong it handles great just painfully slow.Been reading up on n75h's and diverter valves! All abit strange just now but i'll get the hang of it.Not sure of differences between models yet either but mine's a 180bhp model ,(disapointed to here you only get 210bhp with a chip!). I put a Green cottonfilter on this weekend purely for the sound and got Eibach springs and Koni dampers.Hopefully get aremap next month too,local guru(Star performance) wants £499 for a custom map (6 hours on the rolling road ).I trust it worth it?

hey man sounds like you got off to a good start, check out a forge DV and trust me a chip will make a huge difference just cuz its 210hp doesnt mean it will be slow

I take it its the torque increase that helps alot? Using 99 octane V POWER from shell every tank and it seems to like it.Ordered a n75h today see if there is a difference but why do i need to change my DV? Great forum too
