Default Anybody up on 1.8T VAG tuning?

Got my '96 Audi A4 1.8T with the AEB motor and a few mods. My brother has offered me his EBC. Is it worth adding to the old German fun bus?

Theres also AMD tuning http://uk.amdtechnik.com/content.jsp?pname=Homepage
they do all the remapping, exhausts etc for skoda's, audi's, vw's and loads of other cars

my mates dad has a skoda octavia 1.8t4x4 ex-cop car, was 180hp before it was taken to AMD, where it now has exhaust, induction kit and a re-map and a couple of other bits. Was dyno'd at 220bhp, pulls like an absolute bastard on boost!

I should think it won't work as the ecu might throw a hissy fit. Try sending an e-mail to a company called R-Tech, they have a lot to do with the VAG 20v

Electronic boost controller?

I wouldn't think that it would work at all, thats what the n75 valve does, and if the map sensor doesn't measure the expected pressure at any point it goes to limp mode.
