Hi all, Just bought my first Audi which is a 2000 a3 1.8t AGU 150bhp a few weeks ago and was wondering what you guys recommend for a bit more bhp.
Car came with a front mounted intercooler (which sticks out through the bumper) also a K&N cold feed (non filter version, direct from intercooler), upgraded SS exhaust (not sure of brand) dump valve and boost gauge.
The guy who sold me it claims it has been remapped to 180bhp but had no receipt to prove as his friend apparently mapped it. The car feels quick so this may be true but I've never had an audi a3 so I'm not a great judge.
My boost gauge also seems to max out at 0.5 and was also wondering if this is right?
Seen a few posts about the ko3s turbo upgrade and was thinking about going for one but would like to see what you guys think before I go ahead with it.
Any ideas welcomed! Would like to add that I've recently serviced the car to prepare it for any extra mods.
