Hey guys, I live in Tualatin and drive a 99 A6. It's good to see so many from the Portland area. I actually used to live in Medford and it was amazing how few Audis were down there (kind of nice being one of the only ones though).

I'm not sure if this is the right forum to ask this, but I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good Audi mechanic anywhere near the Portland area? I need to replace my front driver side CV boot, not a huge task, but I'd like to give my car over to someone who knows what they're doing. Any help would be appreciated.

Bait45,

How can we help with your CV boot?

The GIAC program for your '98 is $400 and $90 labor. Gains are 45bhp and 55btq--higher gains if you have a full turbo-back or cat-back exhaust, etc;

http://www.giacusa.com/programs.php?mpid=54

Besides a great power increase, there is less turbo lag since boost is brought in sooner, better MPG when using cruise control on the freeway, much crisper throttle response, etc.

PS--Power increases for 2.7T's are 80bhp/85btq.
