Default Just bought an A4, now I need an Evo killer quick!

Hey all,
I just bought a 2006 Audi A4 Quattro with a six speed and the 3.2 V-6. Good looking car, with Ocean Blue paint and platinum leather. Also has a sport suspension on it and next week when my shipment arrives I'll be throwing on a set of BBS RS-GT 18 inch wheels with Goodyear rubber. Monday it goes in the shop for an Aero Turbine exhaust.

A little background on me, I'm big into the import tuner scene in Dallas. That's guys that actually mod their car other than stickers. The ride I traded on this is was a Honda S2000 which was running a 250 shot of N20, some internal engine mods, computer reprogaming, and other stuff. Pretty fast car when I could get it to hook up, fastest pass I made in the 1/4 was in the 11.3's. Well the hot thing now is AWD cars like the Mitsubishi Lancer Evo and the Subaru Impreza WRX STI. Theres quite a few heavily modified Evo's and WRX's around that absolutely smoked my Honda on the 1/4. I just knew I had to get in on the AWD action but I couldn't rip off everyone elses design and be one of the crowd.

Which brings me to my Quattro. Performs great as is, I'm impressed with the engines specs, shifts nice, great throttle response and I've seen bank vaults that aren't built as solid as this car. However I need it to be fast, real fast. I want to get this car in the mid to high 10's. Also it has to be on motor this time, no N2O. Can somebody please post some links to where I can get performance parts for this car? Even if they're in German thats fine, I can read and speak German pretty well. Obviously I'm not worried about voiding the warranty or spending some serious money. I just want a fast Audi that will smoke built Evo's and WRX's all day long. I was thinking of going with a turbo set up, although with the 12.5:1 compression I'll definetely need to keep the boost down if I still want to run on pump gas. Computer mods are always good as are cam changes. I'd like all the info I can get at this point and I'll take it from there.

Thanks for reading and I'm looking forward to getting this car built and representing Audi well on the street and the strip.

Default First of all, welcome. Second of all, you have a B7 car, and this is the B6 forum. You want to go...

Also, just FYI, you may not find a ton of performance parts for the 3.2 liter engine, because it's relatively new and the tuners mostly focus on the already-turboed 4 cylinders. Good luck, though!<ul><li><a href="https://www.audiworld.com/forum/a4b7.html">Here.</a></li></ul>

Default Why didnt you get an S4 or 2.0T?

I dont know about the 3.2 V6 for the B7, but the 3.0 V6 has the lowest capability of engine performance modification in the B6. I highly doubt you can or should go for an Evo killer...esp not quickly since the 3.2 just came out. Nonetheless, goodluck...

Default I am looking forward to seeing what you do with the car, good luck!

You will definitely be unique because nobody has really touched the 3.2 FSI engine yet. I am most interested in seeing how the FSI system is dealt with considering the extent to which you plan to mod the vehicle.

Default Also, are any weight saving measures planned?

To compete with Evos (&lt;3200 pounds) you will have to seriously put the chunky audi on a diet (&gt;3500 pounds at least)

Default HPA might be able to build a turbo kit for a longitudinal 3.2...pricey though

different engine application, but you get the idea. I think they even have some twin-turbo systems, iirc.

I have to run some numbers first. I need to get a modded Evo on a scale and figure out the horsepower to weight ratio. Then once I get the engine built I can see where I'm at. My gut tells me the Audi is geared "better" than the Evo and it looks to be more aerodynamic. The Evo owners seem to favor the park bench on my trunk look.

Default Talk about doing it all wrong.... from the start you've made poor choices

historically the 4 cyl turbo engine is the one to get, so obviously you dont know much about audis... you may think you do, but you dont.

I say the one to get because there are tuning companies which have identified a market for their services and products for said engine which is also shared with VW and usually seat + skoda too.

So now that we've covered your poor selection of engine for a drag racing car. 10's... whatever you have your head so far up your *** right now, I dont know what sort of $ you have to waste on this car but frankly there are better cars to start with than the bloated B7... which is only the heaviest B chassis audi ever produced. Congrats you're starting with an engine for which there is no suport PLUS the heaviest version of the car within it's own herritage. Man you suck at making choices.

The best thing for you to do, is to leave your audi stock and spend that money on something else and enjoy the audi for its smoothness and competencies in everything but drag racing. However based on your poor decision making skills I'd be willing to wager that you dont appreciate the car for what it is.
