Find a way to have Chuck COW tune it for you. Amazing results. I believe Chuck will be traveling to California within the next couple of months to host one of his "tuning" parties. It's one of the best street tunes you will ever get.

You can also send Chuck your PCM and he'll express mail it back in a few days- I think he gets $150- You need to tell him about all mods.

We have a built 3.42 gear set in stock if needed ready to ship! & the best stall convertors on the market.

With an A4 it will do just fine. With a high stall convertor & slicks it may break, but not with a stock TC & street tires.

You'll never break it.....as long as you replace the driver axle in the diff.

Additionally, if you install a converter.....that softens the blow to the drive train..... You'll likely bust the trans before the diff.

If you're interested, we do our A4 ATTACK PAKCAGE!

It's a killer package....with tons of flexible options.... We do the meanest A4 trans with or without converter and the rear as well....

Give me a call any time if you wanna chat about it.
