Default Chip Swap with TT?

Anyone ever looked into a TT chip for their A4? If I am not mistaken the TT has the same engine producing 225 HP!!!!

Default Ummm....the 225 HP TT uses a K04 turbo and twin intercoolers, not just a chip swap.....

....plus a TT chip wouldn't work in an A4.

well, if Audi trusts this turbo and internals in a TT, then I wouldn't have any problem chipping to 180HP. They upgrade many components before going to 225HP.

Actually I may have 180HP in my '01, at least I have heard that being true. It definetely feels much faster than the 150HP.
