Default how big of a turbo
How big of a turbo can i put on my audi, without the tranny getting destroyed fast? The k04 isn't going to do it for me. Does anyone here have a bt on a tip? i want 300 hp at the crank at least. thanks

if you level ten the tranny you should be able to hold that much and run a 2871

Yea, I would say o with GT 2871. Although i do not know that much about turbos yet

Question, How do you like your Tip chip? Is it worth it and can you use D mode instead of tip and still get good shift times?

Are you going to need a bigger exhaust with a big turbo? Borla is 2.25" right?

from what I understand, you need at least a 2.50" to get all the benifits of a turbo, but thats just me
