you could always supercharge it, or put the bi-turbo system from the S4 in it, the dealer by my house said its possible, but my take some modifaction to the engine bay, but possible.

well thanx for your input but a supercharger will cost me around 5,000 and an 18 year old student can't afford that rite now unless i get a sponser. and in order to get a bi-turbo i would have to change so many things like exhaust headers ecu transmission, etc, and it wouldn't be worth it, i'd be better off selling my car and buying an S4. but you no wat i wish i could buy an S4.

Mandoh,

You probably won't feel much of a difference, the chip only adds about 10hp. Here's a link to someone who sells the chip, plus an air induction system, also good for about 8-10hp, and a supercharger good for 295hp only $4895

evolution motorsports

Maybe a better option would be an exhaust. Try a Millitek system, available from Euro Styles East

good luck

thanx for the sites they were very helpful, i wanted the chip because it took out the limiter and i already have a short ram intake so adding more power will eventually gain in hp. i do plan on buyind an exhaust though.
