Modifing an A4
Hey i have been recently thinking of buying an A4 but i dont know what model to get. I have decided to get a late 90's model but im not too sure on the 1.8T or the 2.8 V6. I have heard you can get chips for these cars, how much do they cost? How much horsepower do they add?

Definitely get the 1.8t. HID is a worthwhile mod also. If you do want HID make sure you get the facelifted model cause then you have the one piece headlights instead of the two-piece.

I call BS on the DIY HID installs. I went to two shops today and they just don't want to do it, or they would do it for three hour labour charge.
Sure I could do it myself but it would be an ugly install.

Hid installs are very simple and with a couple sleeves and electrical tape, look mint. Install only takes the time of switching bulbs if you already have a good place picked for ballasts, behind the headlights is great on older a4's. I just got the 2001 a4, xenon is stock, awm engine and every improvement made before the body style change.
