I would, but I have a hard time justifying dropping $700 on pipes and $500 on a tune, totaling $1200 for a car worth about $4500 with a131K. Just not worth it to me.
My 2003 Audi 3.0L with 144k+ is my daily and project car.
Project cars always have more money put into them then they are worth.
I don’t think you can buy anything else in the price range of a 3.0 + jhm parts that would be on the same level for an overall package. (luxury, performance, awd, etc) so it’s a reasonable investment.
Halo did you ever take ur car to the 1/4 mile?
I agree. I think the 3.0 with the upgrades is probably one of the best choices. I just dont see myself owning the car through 2016. Fixing the intake manifold actuator this past weekend made a HUGE difference in performance. Now Im itching for more. I think the tune will take me to what I want and using my tax return for it, will make it seem like I didnt even pay for it ;D. Either way, I think the tune, plus gutted cats will get me where I want to be.

You bet, will make a very noticeable difference. I wish I had at least gutted my cats (didnt go past ecu/tcu tune).

No 1/4 yet.
I have the intake spacers but not on the car yet.
Clutch needs replacing so the JHM LWF and clutch kit is soon to be ordered.
Getting the Apikol rear differential mount from JHM also.
Shifter isn’t as smooth as I think it should be so having that looked at also if money permits.
Might look at the intake manifold actuator and have the vacuum hoses done and the crank case breather done.
I know that’s a lot but I want the car for the long haul !
Me too. I have the treatment on my 3.0. It’s deceptively fast once you really start adding mods to the car. Jhm has done all the testing and has a nice line of parts. Getting the tune you won’t be dissipointed
Didn’t know you had one, very cool!
