Default My A4 1.8T Quattro on order........

I just ordered my A4 here in Houston, TX. Ebony Pearl w/ black int.,Quattro, Tiptronic, Premium, Sport, Bose, Xenon.

Question - I want to get a performance chip and air filter. I "want" about 210-215 hp. Is this wishfull thinking? I need website or place to get these items. Any suggestions?

Default Anything above 210HP is in a larger turbo category (more)

But if you just want gobs of torque around town and fast stop light launches nothing beats a chipped K03.

Default You'll need a few things to get there (more)

Definitely a chip, exhaust and possibly a K&N panel filter or a well-designed cone filter conversion. This will get you close to where you want to be. Garrett mentions greater performance gains on the chipped 170hp engine than the older 150hp engine.

Default Never underestimate MTM

Check out their Stage 2 kit for the A4. Chip & exhaust = 210hp. And I had done to my 99.5 tip Avant.

www.hoppenmotorsport.com

P.S. I've heard that anything above 225 is pushing the limit of the A4 tip system. Although the S4 does offer tip for its 250 hp.
