Default GIAC already had to "tune down" their chip due to the A4's "soft" engine mounts...I asked this...
question before (got no answer), but I'll ask again:

Can the new A4 handle a chip AND a BPV AND an exhaust, without shuddering itself into pieces?

(Original GIAC chip tuned down from 270 ft./lbs to an estimated 250 ft./lbs of torque.)

Interesting point. How much is too much? Guinea pigs apply here. :-)

Default On a tubro engine an exhuast upgrade can yield some decent gains, at least compared to a normally
aspirated engine. Say maybe 10hp.
