I think GIAC makes a chip for the A8. It really won't add much though besides getting rid of the governor, and maybe 10-15hp. Your money would be much better spent on something like an exhaust.

He is correct! Not a thing for us 8's. I have an ABT chip - its now discontinued though.

Naturally aspirated engines don't see very big power gains from "chips" Like everyone else said your money would be better spent elsewhere.

okay so other than getting a custom exhaust system for the a8, what else can i do to add more horse power and torque gains?

Sell it and get one with a V-10.
