Need advice on what to do with my car...

Ok, my car is going to hit 100K on the odometer very soon, and I wanted to get some opinions on where I should go from here.

First a little background info, the car is a 2002 B6 A4 Tiptronic 1.8T. I got it over four years ago back when I was still in college. It's been a great car overall since I've had it. Nothing major in terms of problems and it's been running great for the last 40K miles.

I started modding the car a little less than a year ago. I have most of the basic stuff: APR 1+, coilovers, exhaust, intake, rims, USP lower, door blades, lip spoiler, tint, boost gauge, snub mount, s-line steering wheel, etc. I estimate that I've probably spent close to $5K thus far on parts/labor as far as mods go.

So now the question is, what to do from here? I've always wanted the car to be fast, but I haven't convinced myself dropping $5k on a BT setup is a good use of money. I've also considered k04, but I'm afraid that will leave me wanting more.

Then, that brings me to the other part, which is should I even continue doing major mods to this thing? Given how many miles it has and the current used car market, I feel like I'm just flushing money down the toilet. Of course, no one mods their car expecting to make that money back.

So, what would you guys do? If I drive this thing till it has 150k, am I going to even be able to sell it??? Any/all opinions welcome!

I think is time for a turbo upgrade. A lot of ppl upgrade to bigger turbo down the road anyway. Either way in general ppl want more power anyway so it doesn’t matter if u go K04 or up =) Your ride is clean and is nice to see it transform to where it is right now. Is not a waste if you like it, so mod it whenever at your own pace. And you cant stop since you just picked the wheels I used to have last month! I’m sure you’ll get a good deal on new upgrade.

Transform! Me Grimlock, me hungry for more power BWAHAHA! AWE FTW

mod it and sell it later on down the road after you have had your fun with it. your already not gonna get any money for it. its already high milage so might as well mod it. i dont think it will be a problem to mod a high milage car as long as the maintence has been done. i have 250000 miles on my truck just because i take care of it.
