Well, if he threw some 22's on there, he wouldn't have to worry about buying anything with "performance" in the title.

A chip for your car can make a HUGE difference, but they are pretty expensive. Don't buy the bullshit $29 shit on eBay. Find an Audi forum on the internet and look around there, you will find a million answers for that question. Do some reasearch bro.

i really have no idea for your application...




BUT, im real into offroading/muscle cars, and just about everything ive read says performance chips are straight garbage. they might boost your hp/torque at the highest rpm, but only by 3-5 points...basically, youre better off saving your cash for a REAL performance mod...




however, your audi's a turbo and i know some chips for turbo engines, especially the banks kit for ford powerstrokes, can make a serious difference.




do your research man...it sounds like the chip market can be REALLY hit-or-miss, so if you DO get one...be confident/informed on your buy.

^^^^ as said above dont waster your money on a chip. Get a chip changer and you can change the chip already in your car. It wont be as good but it will still give a little more power (maybe)

LOL.. dont listen to the person above me.. they know shit about what your engine is capable of with just a chip.


This is easy man.. you have a 1.8t motor.. one of the best motors out there. Top ten engines for a few years now...

A performance chip like APR, REVO, or GIAC will boost your hp up about 45hp and about the same tq. Easily the best performance mod to do for 1.8t Audi/VW's.

How many miles do you have on your car... if you have about 100k or so, I would say to pick up a K04 for cheap and use GIAC software to get your car at about 250hp. If better get a GT28r, probably want to go with a standalone setup... well hell no need to get into all this when u want a chip.

But search for what I gave you and you will be fine. Respectable and affordable chips that will give your car life.

Sorry I'm bumping an old thread but don't waste your money on these. I was thinking about getting a performance chip too, but it looks like these things don't do crap. I was reading this article about it, and it looks like these things don't work at all
