Default New 2001 S4 Quattro bought - what stage 2 modifications should I make?

I am looking to supe my vehicle up and I want to re-chip it, but I am curious as to what other modifications I should start with and if there are any kits available for these modifications. And how much will these items run me is of course handy to know as well. Thanks.

Which chips are the best/most recommended models? A friend told me that the the two brand names to go with would be either the APR or GIAC...

Ehhh I would go with MTM if I were you. MTM has the smoothest chip out of all chips, I have it and it works great, and it supposedly has seen upwards of 325 hp on the dyno (just the chip), even though claims are only 306 or so. MTM would be the way to go in my opinion. www.hoppenmotorsport.com . Do a bit of investigation to see what best fits YOU.

Default First mod should be the driver. (m)

Go to ACCNA driving events. I went to 3 before I bought my chip. Best place to see mods first hand. Most people will give you a ride or let you drive so you can "feel" the difference in chips/hear the difference in exhausts, etc. Plus you meet a ton of great people.
