Hey there, I recently just bought my first Audi and am looking to up the hp and speed on the car. I'm a complete beginner to the whole car world and have no clue what any of these things mean Imao. If some people could help me I'm literally just trying to make my car as fast as possible without spending wavy. too much money (5k maximum for now or just buy parts/tunes as I can afford them). If you guys wouldn't mind linking a reliable website to purchase these parts/ tunes for this car as well that would be absolutely amazing!

Don’t spend money until you drive the car! Get used to it, fix the things that annoy you. Upgrade in steps. If you throw $5k at it all at once you might hate the car. Performance is a curve. Once you hit the inflection point it can become too much and no longer enjoyable as a daily driver. Some tunes remove the smooth torque curve and make the throttle more of an on/off switch. You also wear out parts much quicker. A too stiff suspension with low profile tires gets VERY annoying to drive. A loud exhaust that drones at highway speed isn’t fun to drive very far.

Yeah, I'm with Bniner. You haven't said how many miles are on the car. I'd ensure the vehicle is at 100% and all maintenance items have been done. Adding a tune to the engine's control unit is the highest impact move you make per dollar spent, assuming you select a reputable company. I did a minor APR tune to my B8 car a few years ago. It bumps up the engine output, but not dramatically so.
