Like the GT28rs set up?
I have a 1.8t that has this turbo and other mods and pleased with performance/fuel economy. I drove a new S4 today and realized my car is faster.
With all the positive additions to the B7, (including the FSI and larger displacment) the 2.0 should be producing some great power with a large turbo setup, (and I am not talking about a K04).

Appreciate any info.

to get the fuel system upgrades to be solid with the programming. Keep in mind GIAC still hasnt released a big turbo for the B6 A4 when they planned to with AWE two years ago. And the APR stage 3+ was only available a couple years ago. So dont be suprised if the first stuff out takes a little tweaking too. This platform is only a year old. My bet is that SEMA may show up some great ideas of where things are headed with these big turbos though so be on the lookout. cheers! Mike

It was what you said. Nice V8 sound, instant power and smooth. What I found out is it didn't have the acceleration of my 1.8t with the GT28rs set up, (with other mods too). Once on boost, from point A to B I had a higher MPH then S4. Of course, the S4 is an all around nicer car, (brakes, suspension, seats) to name a few. The fuel consumption with my driving would be tough, (40k year).
So... My thoughts of a GT28rs set up for the 2.0 should prove to have some good power when available.
Your in FL? I'm in Sarasota.

Thanks!
