Default Now its time to chip the 2001 2.7T S4

I've got a birthday coming up and I am now off warantee. I need more low end grunt and a linear power band. I have some concerns about very cold Vermont driving and fuel economy. I am looking for chip recommendations and possibly an exhaust that is not too loud. The flood gates are now open.

Default If you are concerned with fuel economy, sell the S4. As for the other stuff...

I run MTM stage 2. Very nice low end power, good exhaust note. No issue with Chicago winters (2 so far).

There is a slight power fade above 5500 rpm, but my lemmiwinks tweak helps.

Default Yes indeed. In my experience, the S4 has very slightly better fuel economy than an F-250 diesel...

And I'm still stock!

Default Yes

My previous and larger AERO got about 5MPG better mileage. It felt pretty quick not having to turn all the AWD.
