Default Will HP increase?
Will horsepower increase when I get more miles on the car? After I modded out my 01 C5/A4 I dyno'd at 305 rwhp(3500 miles). A buddy of mine says his HP went up after he had alot more miles on the car? True or No? :confused:

Very true!!! They run better after they get over the break-in period.

HP will increase over time. When we had similar mods to yours, our RWHP was only 293. The '01's do not respond as well to intake mods as the '97-'00 do.
