I have a 2000 a4 1.8tq, tip, with a APR 93 chip. if i press down the gas too hard past 100km it jumps down to 4th from 5th and back to 5th and back to 4th in a jerky motion and when i was trying to get to 200km it would just surge on and off @ 180km/h+. can someone tell me wat the prob could be?

With a TIP and a chip, the car will gear hunt and change in and out of 4th and 5th. Apparently a TIP chip is supposed to help that but some people have said that it doesn't. My S4 does the exact thing, you kind of have to how hard to press the pedal to avoid that.

Still stupid though I know. Very risky. I always regret it afterwards but the S just begs to be driven.

I don't care to wait in traffic when they have to shut down the 401 to scrape his mangled corpse off a light pole.

Practise your stupidity on your own time.

Or north around the end of the 404, I've been known to open my little 1.8T up from time to time.

I've seen the guages go as far as they would go... who are we kidding... its not smart, but its sure fun, and although dangerous, applying a little bit of common sense can help mitigate a lot of the risk.

Plus, you've got to find out what your car can do after spending all this hard earned cash on mods! We all do it... must of us just don't brag about it or encourage it.

he's had my OEM lower valence and M3 lip to be painted for nearly 2 months and he hasn't done **** yet.

I'm pissed... I need to swap valences this weekend so it better be done or I'm bitchslapping him.

Realistically I can't be that pissed though... he only charged me $300 to do my Oettinger lip, and all of my lowers, plus the OEM valence and the M3 lip spoiler.
