new audi what upgrades???

Hey everyone i just got a 99 B5 A4 1.8t. I was wondering what i could do to get it to 220-230hp. IS a turbo necessary or a supercharger?
THanks

1.8T?? Lift the hood, you already have a turbo...

Chipped ecu, new fuel injectors and exhaust should do it.

With our fuel system, bigger injectors wont do anything with just a chip.

Bigger turbo (k04), new software, new DVs, and with that, you should consider

upgrading brakes and suspension. Oh, and with a bigger turbo, you'll want high flow, or gutted, downpipes and a higher flow exhaust.

All in, you could be in for around $7.5k, not including labor and depending on the downpipe/exhaust setup (could be $500 to $2k).
