I have the newest version of the A&A vortech kit. I made 475rwhp 435rwtq on a stock a4 coupe. I am very happy with the results. Andy is always available for questions and tech support.

I have run Andy's Vortech S Trim kit for over 2 years with no issues. He has great customer support and has one of the best reputations on the forum. I would highly recommend his kit to anyone. Mine is putting out 530rwhp with headers and a meth kit.

And if the A&A Vortech T trim won't blow hard enough for you, you might coax Andy into installing one of the (big) Vortech JT trim units.

Default Love it so much - I'm Doin' it AGAIN!

I'm so happy with the S-trim Andy put in my 06Z that he's currently working on a 416 L92 w/ T-trim for my 03.

Never asked why he switched, or simply now just preffers, Vortech but I'm sure its a cost / performance / availability issue.

Andy is a great guy

Andy's kit is great you won't be disappointed. I've had vortechs on previous cars and they are work horses, very reliable.

Chris at ECS, in all his modesty, won't say anything negative toward Andy.
Andy gave excellent technical info and support.
I ultimately went with ECS, and I couldn't be happier.
8000 miles of giggles and sideways driving, still original drive belt.
