Default Newbie looking for S/C info

I have a 2010 Grand Sport, A6, dual-mode exhaust. I've been "lurking" in this forum and I am thinking seriously about an A&A setup. I still have a lot of questions: (cam? Meth? boost vs HP, etc) Can anyone recommend a book / magazine that will help me zero in on what is required for creating a smooth running daily driver with about 100 extra HP?

I am located near Milwaukee WI, and have not found any tuners and/or A&A installers in my area. The closest I've found is in Chicago's suburbs. Any recommendations in my area?

Thanks!

You're not that far from LPE, IMHO I'd go there and talk to them about the packages they offer. Peace of mind with Warranty!

Here is a Link to read more!

p.s. I'd also consider this as a great F/I

Great suggestion, LPE could dial you in with a Magna Charger TVS 2300 kit for your GS. We just finished a 2009 GS here, what an amazing car that was!

Is that because of the change in the "Wind" direction?

It's a really weird thing about our shop. It takes some time to get here, but always faster on the way home. I think it's the 11th wonder of the world.
