tune my a4, with all the stock components and make it run the 225hp settings that the tt runs.

Is this possible?

Because if it is I would think more people would do it ... ?

Any pros and cons?

Thanks guys

225 TT uses a completely different turbo! Ask him how much he charges for fairy dust....

Default Tell him to "tune" the ***** out of his ***! Dont listen to this guy...he's a moron....
If you want more power...please go with a reputable tuner....not some momo who *thinks* he knows whats going on. BTW, just because he's and Audi/VW tech doesnt mean he is smart/knows his stuff. There are Techs that know their stuff inside and out (GTIVR62801 + Audi for example)...but them there are ALOT that have their heads up their asses. Go with a tuner who is closest to you (GIAC/Dahlback/APR/Revo) and be happy knopwing your car wont blow up. =)

Default not w/o programming, 5bar FPR, and gutting the k03 to emulate the k04
Unless you can push the k03 to that limit as we do with the k04's.

Default I think you need to get a chip. It won't get you what he claims, but it will be better than stock
The chip will give you what you are looking for I believe. And you have an automatic too, right? I would just chip that ECU and call it a day.
