I just got a 96 A4 2.8, wanna hook it up, who can give advice?

Mgrant44 · 10-08-2002, 04:50 PM

1996 A$ 2.8 Quattro 12 V.

Im brand new to all this stuff, so i dont know what does what exactly. Basically, i want to increase the HP and dont know where to start. I will have lots of money to spend, so expensive stuff is not out of the question.

Basically, what i am asking, is for your help on names/brands of parts that will increase my performance. Intake, exhaust, headers, etc. etc.

Im totally clueless to what i should do, so any and all info anyone can add is extremely appreciated. Thanks

Feel free to email me, mgrant44@yahoo.com

If money isnt a problem you may want to get rid of that car and get a 30v 2.8 instead I think 98.5 + then you can supercharge it. not many engine upgrades for the 12v.

about 240+ hp, runs real strong in the 5500-8000 rpm range..perfect for the street! Paul's suspension would be a good start as well as brakes...the A4 really needs brakes. Talk to Achtuning..they can help.

Good advice on the 30valve vrs the 12valve motor and super-charging.

Cheers,
