Default Help coming for B7 owners

I just had a bunch of mods put on my B7, and as posted earlier, the power gains were minimal. The guy at the shop says there's another supercharger coming out for it that's cheaper than the crazy $25K one that's out now. To quote:

"...there will be a supercharger kit that will hump another 105 foot pounds of torque andanother 90 hp that should retail for around $12k. Labor to install will be in the 20 hour range. More details later but it uses a Vortec supercharger and all of the mods that you made so far [Milltek DPs and cat-back] except the chip will bean addition to this kit."

do you plan on getting this supercharger kit when it comes out?
i honestly don't understand why audi went from an extremely succesful platform to a v8 N/A platform, it truely boggles my mind, i understand the reasoning behind the whole BMW/MB goin V8, but theres no reason for audi to follow suit, its pretty easy to just increase the displacement of a v6, and give it more efficient turbos...i could just be on a newbie, rant, but thats what i see..from a bmw owners POV

oh dang... i was soo hoping to get that kit... the amount of tuning options sucks for the b7 compared to the b5....

hey yess what kinda tint is your car? 20% all around? and how much gain did you get from your chip?
I'm thinking of getting a Giac but i don't know if the gains will be any different from a revo
