These cars v6 or 1.8t's are not fast and should not be bought to be made fast. Why even worry about it?
Tell that to Mike Hood. 0-60 in under 3 seconds

He's like one of the few exceptions. Even then his car still isn't that fast. I could cut the same 60' times in my pos mustang with a few thousand into it, after 2nd gear(60mph) it was a dog though. I just don't know why you'd buy an a4 and worry about being fast.
0-60 in sub 3 seconds with just a few thousand into a pos mustang? you are dreaming.

First, the "if you throw a turbo on it" is not saying turbos are ricer. I'm saying the big IF statement is.


Second, anything can be made fast with a good amount of money. How many people on this board or in general have a high 12's capable a4. You make it sound so easy, and if it was almost everyone would do it. I just dont understand why you would buy an A4 and be worried about how fast it is.
it is pretty easy. you don't have to change any internals. can't say that about many engine's out there. and that whole anything can be fast with money argument is stupid. same arguement carries over to whatever cars your into modding. you've obviously dumped a bunch of money into them if they're "fast". its a case of different strokes for different folks. i would much rather spend a few extra dollars and get a 12 second car that is also luxurious and can perform well in the twisties. and honestly its not that expensive. 98 A4- $8k at most. You put 4 grand into it and you have your 12 second car.

Check this out. I'm not a "Magizine Tuner" first off that just turns up the boost. That seems to be the case around here. I tune my cars with computers and tools. For some reason or another everyone's awnser around here is to buy a chip. I don't do that. I belive that you can get more out of your car if you have the knowledge to do so. Well, sorry I do. Chips wont cut it for me. As for this being a audi "loving" community, how is it that one makes an audi fast takes bad hits for it? I have nothing to prove here, I have tuned many cars and like some peoples opionions on how they go, but this is the worst of them.

Yes, the crucial difference is that Audi A4 + $10,000 = track-pulverizing speed demon with supercar 0-60 times and quartermile runs, whereas POS Mustang + $10,000 = faster POS mustang.

Im sure you followed my how to and are now crying that everyone here tells you to buy a chip...WOW .

We just think you fall into the kemp category when you claim you beat sti's with less power, less psi on a smaller turbo, smaller engineand about the same weight. You cant be serious on that one. Until you admit that, you are just full of it.

Spoiler: Shifting doesn't add horsepower.
