well you can dream about the R32 becuz if u live in america u certainly won't see it here. and plus i would love to see you get a chip for a A4,,they are so hard to find..it is just so hard to find stuff that are really rare that u want.especially for a German car--->VW

VWoA is importing the R32 to the US, both the two and four door.
As for the A4, the 1.8t won't give you 400 horsies with "chip, intake, spark plugs, radiator". It takes a lot more. The advantige is that you can get numbers like that with a stock block.

I thought i read an article that said they are not sending the r32 over seas..but i don't remember. I just hate that everything is faster over seas and they don't send it to America..for example..for Honda/Acura they wouldn't send the Type-R's over here..that just sucks..and if u want 400hp..u better get more than just intake,chip,etc..and better dig deep in ur pockets becuz this is one expensice hobby

My friend got his A4 making about 320 and hes spent between $2,000-$1,000 so thats not too bad. Also parts for audi are SOOOO easy to find you must not know anything about modding audi my friend ordered his chip on online and got the rest from sports car shops. So what you said is just not ture, i mean ok maybe their arnt as many parts for it as Civics but come on not many cars have more proformance parts than Civics.

Bullshit.
If you want a 300 hp 1.8t, you need new E-proms, a new turbo, a exhaust, a manifold, a new wastegate, a intercooler, a fuel pressure regulator, injectors, piston rods, an air filter, a race cat and an exhaust system. That's $20000 right there.
If you want another 100, you can add a fuel pump, camshafts, a crankshaft, pistons, an oil cooler and a cylinder head to that. Adds up an extra $10000.

Half the stuff you said you dont need to change on the Audi the turbo is fine you dont have to change the injectors they are fine but ya you would have to change them to get 400hp. The camshafts, crankshaft, and pistons are good at 400hp but they cant take much more than that, and I wouldnt change the cylinder heads eather unless you want to go over 430hp. Also maybe you didnt know this but Audi has upgraided their camshafts, crankshaft, and piston heads so they are really Strong now so they can handle why more power. plus why is that so hard to beleave 320hp? he got about 50hp from the chip then he did some tuning not sure what he did but after he got a hell of alot more kick then he got an almost new exhaust from a junkyard wreak S4 and then he did other stuff too but i didnt write it all down god! But all i know is that he said he spent about 2,000 and is making more or less 320hp. And how the hell did you get 30,000

That price is for new parts installed profesionally, tüv approved.
There is no chance in hell a stock 1.8t turbo can get you anywhere near 300hp, just not going to happen. And yes, the head, block and pistons are strong enough, almost as strong as the old five-cylinder audi engines, but that's not the reason they need to be exchanged.
If you think a new exhaust and a "intake" is going to give you 100 hp, you have spent way too much time talking to Honda owners. Grow up!
