New audi owner, Experienced VW owner here

[a4drhore]

So i just traded my 1990 vw corrado with a 1998 vr6 obd2 swap in it for this audi.

Mods are:

giac chip
magnaflow muffler (not turboback)
FMIC
stewart warner boost gauge
intraxx springs


questions for you guys are...what are some simple first mods most people do...DV(which kind forge 007?), coilovers, headlights (my current ones suck badly and can't see anything) exhaust and a short shifter i want really bad. i loved my neuspeed SS kit.

welcome and please feel free to read the sticky on the top of the page and dont be afraid to search because most wont be afraid to tell you to search.

You already have a chip which is the best bang for the buck.

Every thing you have a question has been talked about in depth. Enjoy your stay here at the zine...

haha, my VTEC kicks in at around then.. been awhile, but his stock VTEC contoller should kick in at like 2200rpm..

not to correct the "MR VTEC" though

I had to read that three times b/c I'm tired. Sorry you lost the 'Rado, but welcome to the Audi World.

Those are typical first mods. I'd look into a High Flow Cat w/ larger Down pipe, sway bars before coilovers, and yes the Forge 007 is pretty common. I actually just ordered mine b/c that's what I wanted in the first place, but settled for the wrong one.

Which Stewart Warner gauge is it? I'm currently installing my Stewart Warner gauges (max perf series), and so far am pretty happy w/ them.

[Eurotuned_A4]

haha, i remember my stock headlights on my 98. very terrible lighting. if i were you i would change thsoe first now that i think back to it.

[UN-PIMP-Z-A4]

Poopie is selling some headlights for a very good price. (thats if its not sold yet.)

There is a NICE red Corrado with a VR6 driven by this hot chick who works for VW dealer. The car is usually the talk of the crowd at meets and the girl is known state wide. Your A4 will be faster than the corrado tho.

[a4drhore]

well i just messed a SMIDGE on the highway today on the way home from DMV and well...my corrado was dead even with my buddy's mk2 vr jetta....but now his jetta pulls like a mofo on me in the audi.

ill post up pics saturday....going to prom tonight, my gf's prom tomorrow, then saturday im going to get a few spare parts fom the guy that sold it to me.

thanks for the support guys!

some things i miss from the corrado

my 280mm steering wheel and neuspeed short shifter
vr6 growl
and the torque :(
and my 3inch drop from patec coilovers

[a4drhore]

and i know im a youngster but...when you see and hear the story that went behind my corrado you guys will believe im not here to skip corners, crash cars, and get monster speeding tickets like normal teenagers.... not a speeding ticket or violation yet :knock on wood:
