Heya, my name is Vlad and i own an 2008 Audi a3 1.9 105 hp.
Now since i’ll be taking a break off the road for solid 2 years the car won’t be driven that much and i’m looking to keep it.
I have a question that i’d love to hear a few opinions on.
What engine internals would i be able to modify or upgrade in order to get a decent power output but not reduce its life?
 
Waynne the admin here and I would like to personally extend a sincere welcome to TorqueCars. I apologize for the delay in responding; I've had a really busy period recently, but I believe I've caught up now.

A remap and turbo swap would be all you need to do on that. Injectors will struggle so need to be uprated, and the head bolts are another potential weak area. You should see an easy 160hp-200hp with the right setup on that engine.

What's your budget and what are you aiming for? Thanks for the compliment, it makes the hard work really worthwhile.

I'm certain you'll fit right in, and I'm looking forward to talking cars with you.

I enjoy the idea of this project, and I'm a big fan of automotive variety in whatever form it takes from cars to project ideas.
