1. I am thinking about or going to do an ECU upgrade. Is Revo good? Not sure which one i should go with and what stage on Revo? I only have exhaust and KN Filter.
2. I want to get a short shifter. Who has what and do they like? Want to keep facoty shifter and boot for now unless you know of a place to get an Alcanta Boot? Does and R8 shifter fit on the RS4?
3. Sway bars? Front and rear? I have seen a few threads on here. Who likes which ones the best?

Looking forward to doing these mods unless you can recommend something else i should do besides these?

Thanks,

Vijay

Forget all this stuff. Get Stasis SL or MS or KW V3 suspension. It will transform the handling of your car. Euro wheel also give a whole different feel to the steering.

RS4 RAIDER

What about some M40's ?

Both are great but right now I am trying to stay around $1,500.00. Baby steps on the mods, i can't get the wife upset this early with the new car...

Then do the Euro wheel. And yes, we've all been through the wife thing.

#1 Mod: Supsension: KW's or Stasis..don't forget 10MM wheel spacers to push the wheels out and make the car sit proper.
#2 MOd: Exhaust. Miltek or similar
#3 Mod: Stickier tires...try Bridgestone RE011Rs (depending on where you live) and never, EVER by a tire with a treadwear of over 220. Handling WILL suck.
#4 Mod: Ecu. Powerchip or similar
#5 Mod: Sway bar. Rear only is fine. Be sure to use Loctite on the bolts or you WILL have problems.
#6: Better brake pads. Stock brakes are fine, stock pads are marginal.

That's it. Trust us.

+1.

I might move the exhaust to #1, but that is just me.
Magnaflow sounds really good for the money, then take the rest and put it in a fund for the suspension.

I vote to so suspension 1st since it's a known part waiting to fail and then do the flapper "golf tee" mod to the exhaust. The car sounds amazing and I think it's faster do to the sound it makes.

I have a Milltek nonres but just ordered the res... It's a little too loud.
I am having them price the KW's for me thanks to everyones input.

I had the Magnaflow...it's just as loud as the Milltek. If you think either of these is too loud, you are NOT a good candidate for an exhaust system.
