Good morning people and happy easter for those of you who have it off

Car in question is A4 B8 2010 2.0 TDI 170 Manual 2WD.

So I'm looking to get a remap and MAYBE DPF/EGR removal. Thing is i dont want the DPF removed just cut from the top and smashed out them welded up. Reason for the DPF is i drive on the A10 that only ever see's 45 ish for about 20 miles daily, then abit of town driving so i never get any motorway miles really. Although i do give it some stick when the road is open hoping this clears the DPF out.

What gains should i see as I've been reading and it seems anything from 190 to 215 BHP and 310 - 330 lb-ft, is this safe for the clutch and everything else? Would an induction kit see anymore power safely? or just a K&N panel filter?

I live near in cambridgeshire so where is best to go?

Ive just booked it in Audi for a service and he wanted me to get a cam belt changed as he said its now 75k or 5 years not 133k what my booklet says anymore. How true is this as i hoped i was safe just for a little more, is there a cheaper place other than Audi for this service as its almost £500 for a change as most of you know.

Many thanks

I posted this on the Audi forum too hoping i can get help from both.

dpf is there for a reason - use MSD, bound to be an installer near you. http://www.evolutionchips.co.uk/

with regards to the cambelt, just get a decent independant to do it, you can always buy a genuine cambelt kit from Audi if you wanted

DPF uses more fuel and restricts power.

Might I've them a call and see what they can offer.

How did you break that much? Was it the older PD engine or newer CR?

Keep looking into it as yet nothing is set in stone i guess.
