Default Is a chip'd 2.0T noisy?

For a while I've been drooling over a chip'd 2.0TQ, but i read a post somewhere taht said the turbo gives a throaty grumbling response. If I were to get a 2.0T, i would just chip it, nothing else.

I don't think mine is any louder than stock.

Default Chipping will just let you hear the whistleing of the turbo more. The grunting is the motor and...

it does that stock or chipped regardless. cheers! Mike

I love them. They're 330x28 with a 4 piston ultra light 6lb caliper. The rotors weigh in at a very light 12-13lbs. I looked into them from seeing them long ago on many American LeMans series race cars. AP Racing, Brembo, and Alcon are all great. The AP were the lightests and I just happened to get a great deal on them so the price factored into it. Keep an eye out on the classified here and on audizine.com and you may end up saving 50% on a used set. I got mine from a B5 S4 who was using them. They fit both cars with no modifications. Heres a linky to the install...<ul><li><a href="http://www.mjbmotorsport.com/id79.html">AP Racing Brakes</a></li></ul>
