Default New to Audi World, wanting to upgrade my Q5
Hello all I am wanting to upgrade the Turbo on my Q5 2.0T I have seen some kits online, but want to grab one off Ebay instead. To anyone that has dont this, will I just need to swap the turbo out and retune the ECU? Just now getting back into working on cars, I worked on helicopters ad airplanes so I am capable just need some direction from the pros.

Just get an ECU tune. The stock turbo can make significantly more power.
