hey everyone just got a 05 audi a4 b6 6 spd quattro. Thought I'd post some pics of it. its bone stock right now but that'll probably change soon. Since im fairly new to the audi scene, i dont kno that much about performance upgrades (yet), just wondering what is out there for b6 a4s? i know there are ecu reflashes but wht else? any help would be appreciated! on to the pictures...

Whatup, is that black or moro?

[brownstud08]

that is a moro and im definitely looking foward to this car. i had a 05 acura tl before this and i already like this more than the Acura. German engineering ftw!

Welcome and nice start already with the painted lowers..

[brownstud08]

yea i dont know what a painted lower is to begin with...thats now much i know about this car...but i want to get some type of ecu software upgrade like this week because the loss of 100 horses is killing me...what is like the best upgrade if there is such a thing?

Welcome, and hold on to your wallet !

Yep, welcome to the money pit.
Here's a few pointers and FYI's
Every part cost twice as much as <insert car name here>
Every performance mod gets you to within a half car length to a <insert car name here>
BUT, every car is at least two or so car lengths ahead of you so prepare for lessons in humility.
With a 5000.00 investment in a full Stage 1+(500 flash, 300 injectors, 1000 FMIC, 1000 exhaust, 150 Diverter Valve, new wheels/tires @ 1500 or so and lowering @ around 1000) , your car will be as fast as a stock WRX or Accord at best.

Edit: the wheels/tires/suspension is a given...everyone does it so I threw it in there.
Edit Edit: Oh yeah, nice ride and nice to see another Moro on here!

[brownstud08]

haha that was about the same as the acura. every performance part was soo expensive but even with all of them, it still wasnt that much faster. and since you can force induction it except for a 7000 supercharger, there wasnt much room for improvement really.

Welcome!! have fun discovering cool little things all around your car

[brownstud08]

This will be very useful...happy reading Easter eggs thread

lol as i said there is alot of cool little things in your car
that button is just incase you want ur car to be towed, you pull it to deactivate ur alarm sensors. basicly ur car has anti-towing sensors(as far as i know) and button near it for sensors inside ur car. One time i felt asleep inside of my car and woke up few minutes later after my alarm was going off.

What I was saying was the previous owner painted the lower molding on your car to match, a common upgrade.. take a look one day at other B6 A4s, non sport and you'll notice that they have gray plastic on the lower part of the trim...

[brownstud08]

ohh yea i was going through some pictures and i noticed the non painted lowers but thanks for explaining.
