For the best result stage 2 and above you will need the best flowinghardware to get the number, a lot of cheap and branded kits are not upto thejob to give the best results.INDUCTION KITS/ AIR FILTERSFor induction kit we had to design our own cold air kit as non of the kitson the market could flow decent air and stay cool, The R-Tech RAM-CAIinduction kit is only £120 fitted and has proven to flow for over 650bhp.FMICs / IntercoolersThe are many fmic options on the market which range from £90 for universalsetups to £700 branded units, the price don’t mean it’s the best flowing /cooling setup for your application. The £700 kits tend to be made of bestquality materials and to fit easy, the £90 kits poor quality and poorfitting, lots of chopping and cutting needed. The best proven all aroundfmic is the “Wellycooler” setup, this has proven to us over the past yearsto give the best cooling and flow at all stages of tune, we are running themat 450+bhp on car with GT turbo. The Wellycooler kit is basically a Toyo2.5” core with ASH hoses pipes. It costs around £220 for the materials.For more information on the wellycooler setups just search google and have aquick read up.We can provide a custom 2.5” alloy welded hard pipe custom fmic setupsupplied and fitted for £470 all inc. It’s the wellycooler without all thejoins.Exhausts and decatsAgain with exhaust systems there are 1000s of options, but basically sub350bhp all you need is a decent flowing 2.5” pipe work exhaust with decentbends which don’t cause a bottle neck in flow. Milltek is the best directbolt on option for a full turbo back system. You can find on ebay decent3” downpipe and decat setup for around £80 which are good enough for 320bhpand an easy fit to any other cat back system.Going 3” exhaust on a k03 is over kill and will knock on the rear beam.DUMP VALVESOnly proven DVs to work well with the 1.8T are the Forge 007p or 008 DV withthe new pistion design. But the best working DV is the new stock factoryplastic DV, the 710n or 710P from an Audi TT part number from main dealers06A 145 710 P £35TIPS / TURBO INTAKE PIPESAgain many options around ranging from £50 to £140, the cheap ebay tips arecrap full stop, the bodies on them are smaller than the stock ones, theyflow really bad and make less power then the stock tips. Forge sell theupgrade tip which flow better than the stock tips upto around 240bhp theseare around £140. The best flowing tip for the k03 turbos is the 70mmSupersize tips which have proven to flow over 300bhp on the K300 hybridturbos. R-Tech do there own brand 70mm supersize tip for £110 fitted, SFSalso sell them.Exhaust manifoldsIf your looking for the very best from your setup you might want to port theexhaust manifold collector, this can aid flow for another 10-12bhp at thehigher end of the rpm scale. If your good at DIY its going to cost younothing, but if you pay someone your looking at around £120 labour.
I stubbled across this for a air filter cheap as chips http://www.audi-sport.net/vb/a3-s3-forum-8l-chassis/118673-benjamins-s2000-air-filter-mod.html should be the same fitment for the mk4
