Default Help me with my 2.8 30v

I am wondering if anyone can help get some more power out of my car. I hear i might be able change the cams and get like 30-40 more HP. Also the PES SC has crossed my mind but i cant afford to put 5 grand into my car, plus it is an automatic so it will rob alot power. So if anyone can help please let me know.

Default Wrong forum

<A HREF="https://forums.audiworld.com/a4">Here</A> is where you want to be.

I'll save you the trouble, though; there's very little you can do to the 2.8 30V engine without forced induction. Chip, exhaust, intake will get you 10-15hp, that's about it really.

Default Get a high flow air intake, new exhaust, ported TB and ported intake manifold. You should be good

to go. Also there is a chip for the 30v.

Default I wouldn't expect much at the wheels, maybe, if you are lucky, with all of that, 5-10HP.

The best thing to do is get a free flowing intake system with a free flowing exhuast system. Then after a chip, which doesn't do much for performance on the 30v, start on the engine mechanics. New intake/TB, cams, etc. But to be completely honest, if you are looking for serious HP, you need to save your money for a SC'er.

If this is a daily driver car, then I would just get a custom intake and exhaust.
