where to begin for complete newbie? and should i even attempt this?

Stickers, lots of them

gotta weigh the pro's and con's lol. Does your car have warranty? Will modding fuck that warranty? Do you give a shit if it voids that warranty? can you afford to repair shit if it breaks because you added power, etc.

Lots of things to consider with zero information about your situation or what you plan on doing lol.

There's really only 2 things I'll do to any car: Tint and wheels. If you give a shit about the sound of your car then exhaust/intake is a pretty easy/safe thing to do. Won't/shouldn't fuck warranty either. Once you start getting into tuning and everything beyond that is where you have to consider if its worth it.

imo get a project car dont ever fuck with your DD. gotta have something you know 100% wont break down because you did some janky shit to it

Start by getting a vap

intake is what i'm currently looking into as it seems to be cheap
it's a new 2018 a4 with a 10 year warranty on everything but the wheels


buy something old/used and try to make it great basically?

dosnt have to be. id just go with something other then what you plan to drive everyday to work.

You should have bought my a6 it has already pimped out

intake + exhaust and tint and wheels is all I'd do to it personally. You have a long term warranty, might as well not give em an excuse to not cover your shit, know what I mean? Also note that intake and exhaust probably won't do shit for you in regards to HP.... only do it solely for the sound if you really want to.

The best bang for your buck is a downpipe and stage 2 tune. Intake is useless. Exhaust won't do much but change the sound, little extra power.
