Personal opinion, depending on how many miles are on the car, i would refrain from chipping it.  Our cars are notorious for 'splodin turbos when chipped (usually bearing shaft failure).  Regardless, welcome to the club.

GIAC X chip or REVO wtih (setuning.com),  clear corners are do-it-yourself, 710N DV's work just fine, you should invest in a samco TBB since the oem ones are prone to tearing,  your going to need suspension since stock ride height just does not equal balla style.  and im sure eric@setuning will be glad to hook a brother up :P

you need to chip it.  the S just begs to boost 21 ;-)

btw i happen to be chiping it at DATR cuz it will be cheaper

WELCOME ;-)

turbo timers = pain in the ass

Brandon (af-s4-driver) and Zach (themoneypit) have both done this mod with luck.  Talk to them.

chip:  Just about whatever you want.  REVO, APR, and GIAC all have great reputations.  Taylor from SE Tuning sells REVO.

BOV: the 710N is the bypass valve found on the 225HP TT.  It effectively replaces the stock bypass valves on both S4's and A4's.  Purchase a pair of those and don't look back.

wastegates:  KKK turbos use internal wastegates.  Unless you are having problems with yours (and if you are, upgrade the turbos while you're at it), keep 'em stock.  To be honest, I'm not even sure if there is an "upgrade" for the wastegate.
