i dont really need much power and im usually only driving in the mountains as this is where i will be living with the car for the next 3 years (school).
but i was thinking intake/exhaust and a new ecu for maps and to take off the limiter. i will be getting suspension, wheels/tires and brake upgrades for safety and handling but is there anything i can do to just give it a bit more power?
im not asking for an S4 maybe just 200bhp.
i believe i should port and polish to get sum more hp, but does anyone know where i can get it done and how much will they charge me?

Here is a dated list of my mods that probably give me 200+HP.
Mods on my 1995 Audi Sport 90 Quattro with 2.8L engine:
7/24/03 - Installed Cold Air Induction System & Velocity Stack.
9/13/03 - Installed Stage 3 MAF & Stage 2 Hose Kit.
12/7/03 - Rebuilt heads, ported & polished and match port all gaskets to heads(both intake and exhaust).
3/26/04 - Stage 3 Velocity Stack (S3 VS).
8/6/04 - Installed ported and polished IM with new XSTB from Mance
Seat-of-the-pants HP rating somewhere between 200-225.
I did the Port & Polish myself.

I know that was just a seat up the pants thing but that number wayyy off. I'd guess you are somewhere between 190-195hp tops. Those mods don't really add a lot of horsepower but help the engine breath better and become more efficient.

eek 200 hp, and I doubt that hightly that I've hit that #. My dad's 225 hp TT still had considerably more punch than my car... but that's a turbo, so it's comparing apples to oranges
