Default thanks guys. i wonder what sort of compay i'll be in with a 200q20v chipped?

i've already got the k&n cone filter and the 710n BPV. but 285hp/300ftlb of tq isn't too bad. especially in a quattro car. speaking of quattro. this is my fourth audi .. first quattro. i see that there is a diff. lock next to the ebrake but is that rear or front diff?! what are ideal situation for using the diff. button?

Default Its the rear diff. lock. Use it when you need more traction...

like starting out up hill on an snowy road.

Default Keep it in boost?

My car doesn't make boost until I'm actually in gear. How do you make boost while staging with a CIS setup? I've heard about misfiring a cylinder (launch control) but that's not possible with CIS, AFAIK. I'd really like to learn more!

Default First time I tried it too...

Although my car has only a stage1 chip boosting 1.8 bar, I did a 4000 rpm lounge, and did get some tire spin.

I also lowered the pressure to 32 all around in my 225/45/17 tires, and the car rides much softer. I never checked the pressure since they mounted the tires, and they were waaay over inflated (over 40)

Nice car are you running small spacers on the front wheels?
