Red 1997 Audi A4 1.8t MTM 286hp factory version
Haltech E8 computer remaped to around 320hp (will confirm at speedsource on Saturday)
Halo head and tail lights
Plan to upgrade brakes and maybe rear swaybar depending on how it behaves on the track when I get an opportunity.

wow, that'd go like a rocket.

Be interesting to see what you actually get from it with the aftermarket ECU, as with the MTM map they never got more than ~250hp in NZ

Yes...looking forward to chatting to Kent at spedsource Saturday during the retune, Kent Dynotuned the car when the Haltech was fitted.

The car that was on TM?
You should bring it a long to our track day.
Oh, and welcome to the forum.

Yes this is the car that was on trademe, I have only had the car for about a month. It's my first Audi and am really stoked by the performance handling and general feel of the car.
The track day sounds good but I might need to get used to the car a bit more and iron out a few small problems before I let loose on the track?
Cheers for the welcome, it's great to see so many people pasionate about cars!

That probably was me on Franklin Rd as my work is based in Ponsonby and out South so travel though Franklin Rd on a regular basis. What were you driving? Cheers for the compliment on the car!

Think I saw your car 2 or 3 weeks ago driving down Manukau Rd...looks really nice.

Use a Photbucket, Flickr or other file sharing type account. Then use the "Insert Image" button and paste the pic location address between the "" text and the pics will appear in your post, but are hosted elsewhere.

Hope that helps.

Fixed it for you  :)



You just needed to use the image file. e.g. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2470/3591332553_bd8143be6e_o.jpg and then put the IMG tags around the link.

Nice A4 BTW - was that the one from TM from Wellington with all the mods?

Cheers for that!! This whole forum thing is a bit foreign to me, will hopefully get the hang of it soon?
The previous owner was from Pukekohe and yes I got it off trademe about 2 months ago.
Still can't get it right? can you type the actual address you used to bring up the photo so I can see where i'm making the mistake?

Spoke to Kent at Speedsource and he showed me the dyno readout for my A4: 16lb boost 320hp at the flywheel and 240hp at the wheels. I have backed the boost back to 12lb for day to day driving but can plug in the laptop turn up the boost. The only mods past the standard 286hp configuration is the Haltech comp with quite a bit of time spent on the mapping and boost level, removal of cat converter and the head has been rebuilt but no major changes were done to the head, MTM factory seem to know what they are doing.

Have a read, heaps of info


Look at a gt28 turbo + injectors + chip + custom made or off the shelf exhaust + clutch. It gets expensive quite fast
