Default NEWBIE!!!NEWBIE!!!!

hey i just purchased a 2002 audi a4 1.8T...this is my first time on this forum...i am very excited about this car and have a few basic questions...i do know how to use the search feature but was hoping one knowlegable person, which i am sure there are ton's of, could answer a few basic questions i am sure you guys get all the time, and save me alot of time searching a million posts...

my car is bone stock and would like to do all the basic bolt-on's...i am assuming this would include a new hi-flow filter, cat back, chip and boost controller...

could someone tell me if this is right, the choices they think are right for a car that's going to be a daily driver and the prices plus hp and torque gain...

i know it's probably somehere on here..thank you very much and i am looking forward to getting to know the forum...

Hey man, first of all welcome to the wonderful world of Audi's. For the first upgrade i would say chip it. its gonna give you nice hp and torque gains, and alot more responsiveness.

well i dont know how hard it could be to search, but ill help you anyway, i just wanted to tell you that a boost controller is not necessary, if you chip your car, most manufacturers have extra options to return to stock through the cruise control switch, just get a boost gauge to watch your boost, and replace that dv with one like forge or stratmosphere

that sounds good. you dont need a boost controller how ever it will help out with keeping asteady boost limiting spikes. get a k&n drop in filter there is no need for a cia. cat back exhaust is a good idea and deff teh first thing is a chip. dont do a boost controller first or you will run lean and screw your car.
