Re: Calling 1.8T's

Easy tiger, one point eight T can neva lose, unless its trying to motivate a heavy ass awd sedan that is. j/k. Marks old a4 ripped pretty good and prolly got decent milage to boot.

Tweedie said it best. Anything much above 260-280whp and your daily driver might end up being a rolling headache on wheels. Even thats going to cost a fair bit all said and done.

Re: Calling 1.8T's

Unless your big turbo no way, more likely around 255 whp - 260whp. there are veryyyyyyy few k04's pushing 300 whp even on vortex.

Sorry, i made a mistake, its just under 300 at the crank.

Re: Calling 1.8T's

get a 2.5 if you ask me

APR 2.5 downpipe / Milltek 2.5 cat-back exhaust (resonated version)

Sounds almost stock .

GO 3 INCH we drive thousands of kms on our road trips and they never get droanie . and you are putting on an exhaust to not sound stock

Re: Calling 1.8T's

money makes the whole world go around.. what ive learned is that modding never ends. I got the ecu chipped recently (about 3 months ago), and i have now burnt out the clutch... So "with great power comes greater responsibility"

How much for the blue skizzors on the rain tray mod?!

Re: Calling 1.8T's

I have a 1.8T!!!!
Ive er.... not done any mod to it yet. (im new to this)

I was at a meetup yesterday at Peters Drive Thru. I saw some nice mods and got a few ideas.
I just wondered where would I pickup a rear spolier for a Mk4?
