as a matter of fact its a two years extended warranty and $20 k was after TTL fee's

It is a little on the high side, but the 1.8 is a nice little motor. I have owned 6 Audis over the years, still have my S6 Avant (daily driver), and the stage 3 S4 (scare the shit out of the wife) car. LOL!!! Enjoy!!!

Here are the US chassis codes and years.

1996-01 B5
2002-05.5 B6
2005.5-current is B7

When you're ready to chip that 1.8T give us a call!

turbo timer does not give you any power what so ever

turbo timer lets the car idle for a set amount of time before shutting off the motor, this allows the oil in the turbo's to cool down the turbo before turning off the engine

this allows the turbo to live a longer life, but does not increase power

if you want to increase power, chipping the car like MikeKim suggested is what you want

AHHHHHH ok ok i never knew how that worked exactly ,I dont know anything about boosted motors other than its really hard and expensive to boost a naturally aspirated motor like my 202 HAHA

what kinda chip options is there? Can you upgrade turbos without upgrading the stock manifolds piping intercooler,and without remapping the ECU etc ??????

traction control can be eliminated by hitting the 'esp' button on your dash :tup:
