    Hey guys just traded in my APR Stage 2 B8 A4 for a 2015 premium plus with nav+ package, driver assistance package, and sport package. It also came with H&R coilovers. Looking for some ideas on where to go mod wise. Thanks. PFA

    List off what’s most important to you. Because it’s clearly winter for you.. I’d say intake/exhaust as right now mods. Tunes or fresh wheels wont do you good right now

    Looks great on coil-overs! Any more photos?

    I'd suggest a good read sway bar since the car has coils. Throw on an intake as well.

    Yeah I was going to wait for wheels since i have snow tires on these anyway. Any brand of exhaust you like? Found a couple but don’t know which to go with

    First thing I noticed was the amber in headlights and how much it doesn’t go with the car haha. Just rear? Not front too?

    Already have a RS grille with Quattro lettering coming and a CF trunk lip I got for a good price. I dig the steering wheel. Did that just come off an S3 or was it custom?

    As far as exhausts go idk they all make the same sound just at different volumes. I have a milltek and it’s too quiet for my personal taste; so I fabbed one up myself. Jace reminded me of the few mods I have left to do & that’s def one. There is several to choose from and they are plug n play.

    Saw one from magnaflow so I’ll probably go that route instead of milltek then. Also I’ll probably just do a test pipe since no emission laws in montana

    You will not be disappointed with the Magnaflow setup if you like it loud. I don’t know how it sounds with the stock down pipe, that might quiet it a bit. Only complaints I ever get are from backseat passengers. I guess the drone is more pronounced beck there. I will warn you, your fuel mileage will suck. You will find yourself getting on it everywhere, just to listen to the howl and bark of the DSG shifts.

    Haha I like how that sounds. Fuel mileage was never a huge thing for me.
