Yes many ppl have done it, but you will need a APR stage 3+, GTRS, or GT71R, and possibly race gas. However, since you have a tiptronic, you would have to strengthen your tranny for all that extra torque so it will not be cheap for you.

can getting a level ten tranny eliminate some drivetrain lose or do you guys just get them cuz they can handle the torque?

how about you actually compare similar cars. S4 to M3. A4 to 3XX. S6/RS6 to M5. Come on guys I thought you knew something about cars, it's pointless to even keep talking in this thread if you don't have a valid argument or question.

it is possible, just level ten ( http://levelten.com )your tranny and buy the ecodetuning turbo kit ATP GT71R kit with EuroCode/REVO Software "THE COMPLETE SOLUTION" ( http://www.ecodetuning.com/shop/cart...ail&p=553&c=88 )

its not practical or worth it IMO

thats why i gave up on modding my car

You are still gunna need a FMIC and exhaust/quality DV/boost gauge/misc plumbing which would total another $2000 or so to do it the right way.
That **** isnt a "complete solution"
and dont you need a fpr with those injectors/software?!

buy a brand new m3 and a brand new a4... mod the audi so it's as fast as the m3... don't you still have lots of cash left over? How's that for a comparison? [sm=teetertooter.gif]
