fast 90/90 manifold and TB, UDP. and if you absolutly just want to cuz its not really worth it msd coilpacks and plug wires and a new maf. Again kinda a waste of $ unless you REALLY want to do it. Plus MSD coils are a LOT of cheese.

I agree with you. Too solve that, the stock MAF could be ported out and descreened or if gong to FAST setup upgrade to the 85mm Corvette MAF(Delphi).

I agree, the stock coils are a decent piece or in high RPM/Compression motor's use the ( round ) truck coils.

Torque Converter. Usually not considered a bolt-on, but not internal engine work by any means. This should be the first mod done to any A4 IMO. Go with a 3400-3600 stall for maximum driveability. A 2.4-2.5 STR will keep it tight at the lower rpms.
