Default What stage would this list of mods be considered??? And estimated hp(flywheel)???

GIAC 1-bar chip, APR exhaust, SPP fan kit, S4 wheel well liner, LLtek intake, bigger injectors, and Forge BPV. (You can substitute brands for each mod, of course)
I know the BPV isnt really a power adder, but I thought I'd add it to the list since its a common mod.
Does anyone have a similar setup and dyno'd their car? I'm guesstimating 210-220hp to the flywheel. I would consider this Stage 1 or 1.5(with the injectors) since this is pretty much the norm in basic mods.
Hit me up fellas!

Default Why did you go with bigger injectors?

They won't benefit you without the programming or airflow to complement them.

Default No, I haven't done any of these mods, but I threw in bigger injectors since I have a 99 with the...

240cc injectors...no benefit if I upgrade to 270 or 300cc units?

So with an aftermarket intake, you actually lose hp? I guess its just a dress-up mod then huh? =P

Default well, i havn't really seen any proof either way

the general rule of thumb on the forum is:
that the heat in the engine compartment is so high (right above the turbo) that its actually hotter there, and the A4's stock airbox is really pretty good. better than all the jap cars anyway.
there are new intakes with proven performance increases, but they are very expensive (generally ported to with CF or something)
anyway - they sound cool

Default Actually could be worse. The computer is running at a duty cycle...

based on the OEM injectors unless you got special programming for the injector size. You are most likely running rich, since for a given pulse of the injector, you are squirting more fuel, without the correct air to match it.
