GET an adjustable. Then you can dial in your car better. I ran one on my A4 when I had the PC-16 file and you can adjust it to get best performance out of the car.

I am hesitant....I talked to a guy at AWE (the company the comprehensively road tested the ko4 setup) and he said that the file is specifically tuned for a 3bar...he told me to steer clear of adjustables...

I honestly don't want the ability to adjust...with my luck I will mess something up big time...

so, the question is, will the 3bar fpr for the TT work on my A4 1.8?

If it doesn't fit just get a nice aFPR and set it at 3bar and forget it. If it's a good one it will hold it and won't change.
