I just bought my '01 Pearl White S4 this past weekend with 100,000km. What can you guys tell me about the car. I did quite a bit of research with regards to this model, however would like some comments from those of you that own one as well. The car is completely stock, therefore the shifter is sloppy, the response is lacking but the overall ride is quite reasonable. I am in Edmonton and would like to know where you guys get your cars tuned, if there are any of you out here. Anyone used Autobahn performance or have you just gone to the dealer. I am looking at the Revo chip and will be going with the 5 day trial to see how I like it. Any comments would be great.
Thanks!

Only way to truly tell if the chip is doing what it should is to dyno the car.

Dyno time should cost you about $150.

Where can you dyno an AWD drive car?

Welcome to the club from another Edmontonian. I have never gone to Autobahn but heard some good things (whatever that counts for!)
I have always taken my Out of Warranty dubs and Audis to Eurasia Automotive on the southside. The guys there are Enthusiasts in the true sense. Deals mostly only with Dub/AUdi but has some Italian metal on the grounds as well. They do GIAC chipping and though they have a DYNO it is not working right now - I asked about a month ago.

show some pics allready!

Thanks for the info, I didn't even think of Eurasia which is quite convenient being on the South Side. I will post some pics soon, I just have to download them from my iPhone when I have a chance. Audi is new to my blood and is settling in quite well. Thanks again for the info, greatly appreciated!
