Chip it, ignore all the other BS about brakes, etc. You need a chip just to merge on the highway.

Default Heh, I don't need brakes. Anyone who has enough car to want to race

is going to blow by like I'm parked.

Default Depends on what kind of A4 you have...

Since I have the 2.8, a chip isn't high on the list... Yeah sure going faster is fun, but not usable all the time (speed limits and all), but with suspension, you can have fun way more often, Because you'll be going faster around corners (like on/off ramps) Even with only sway bars installed, I've noticed a huge difference in the way the car handles, and highway ramps are soo much more fun (losing more tire tread more than I used to tho...) but finishing suspension and wheels+tires could help there


I'd say suspension, you will use it more... and with a full setup, you'll love how the car sits lower, giving a much sportier look on the outside...
