  • free and inexpensive mods....

    I used to know the list of free mods by heart, but I've been out of the hobby for a few years now. I will soon be getting a 97 WS6, A4 and need my memory refreshed as to what I can do right off the bat cheaply. The car payment will already make the budget tight. Only mod the car currently has is a Flowmaster cat-back.

    Thanks,
    Dave M

    The only one I can remember right now is the throttle body coolant bypass. Someone can fill you in to the rest of them and how to do them.

            Not a performance mod, but for cheap engine appearance mod - Polish the heck out of it. Some Mother's & a lot of elbow grease. It's what I do when I'm out of cash or short on ideas.
