NEW MEMBER w/Old Topic...3.2 mods

[flyingdutchman]

I'm a new member of the forum, and a new Audi owner. This is the first Audi I've owned and the more I drive the car, the more I like it. Years ago I had a really sweet 2002, lowered, huge sway bars, and Chromadora wheels. Back then I ate 240Z's alive, and as I recall it was one of the best handling cars I ever owned; way better than the 320i. I Drove the 320i during the week and terrorized the 2002 on the weekend. The Audi A4 3.2 reminds me a little of my 2002 for some reason; just a lot of fun. Enough living in the past. I would like to know if re-programming the 3.2 engine is worth the money 034 Motorsport charges. Sounds like a gain of about 13HP and 15lb/ft of torque. I know that most of the crowd drives 2.0T's, but I don't like turbo lag, and this is an everyday commuter. Can anyone add insight without lecturing me on the benefits of a turbo Audi. From my initial research it sounds like intake, exhaust and re-programming are the only mod's short of a supercharger that are available.

Thanks for your assistance,
Dutch

well, if you do a search, there is a thread dedicated to what mods a v6 can do, but you sum'd it up. Not many people, if any have really done a chip...price to high and gains very little. Search that thread it might give you more of an insight to what is capable of being done!

upsolute has a chip for $350 with gains of about 20hp/20tq.

we all know that it's a LOT lower than that, but it takes off the limiter... if you need that

How? and who is "we all" since I haven't heard of one person who has it. Not supporting those claims in anyway (nor the company) just wondering how you can be so certain.
