Default Performance Upgrades & tuning help

I recently just bought a audi A6 2.7t quattro, and was looking to put some performance upgrades into it. The only thing is I dont know to much about audi's so I really don't know what to get or where to look. So could someone put me in the right direction.

Thanks
Skizert

Default go look on the a6 forum

look at what people have for modifications and what is generally discussed.

usual progression is
chip +50hp on most turbo audis
exhaust
suspension
brakes
bigger turbos, etc etc

I used to read the predecessor pages to audiworld (JET's page, then a4.org) for months without posting so I could see what was going on in the audi scene.

Default Re: Performance Upgrades & tuning help

like u i too have just recently got a audi but mine is an a4 and i would suggest first upgrading the diverter valve because the stock valve is crap and will cause turbo lagg and eventually harm your turbo...

then after that upgrade the air induction by getting a cold air intake and a turbo inlet pipe..

all of this will increase horsepower and acceleration.
P.S.
try going to www.horsepowerfreaks.com or a little more pricy site like www.evoms.com

good luck!
