Agreed with everyone above. This would be better served in the B5 A4 section and a simple ECU flash would be the best bang for your buck.

Mmhmm. Step 1: take off the stupid blow off valve.
I've seen cars for sale with them and they are immediately disqualified from being put on my potential buy list. Makes me think the owner might have been equally stupid in other areas of car ownership.
