S5 3.0T HP upgrade options?
Hey guys. I was wondering if there were any other upgrades besides the supercharger pulley and ecu that significantly raises the HP in this newer engine. Basically, I'm wondering if anyone has raised this engine to over 500hp without spending insane amounts of money and what it involved.

Zach, I was wondering the same. I have since then read that the Direct Shift Gearbox transmission might not be capable of handling 500hp. Read the advantages and disadvantages: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct-shift_gearbox
Obviously, it doesn't apply specifically to the S5.
