I own a 2000 audi a4 1.8t and am considering adding a chip to the computer for increased performance. Not knowing much about this, I am wondering if there are any negative effects that may result in this procedure?

it will get better mileage, but puts out more boost, so it puts more stress on your turbo, and will wear it out a little sooner.

As you said it's a performance chip so expect a slight decrease in fuel millage, other than that the ones I've installed have only made the owners happy.

depending on the chip and the car you could possibly increase mileage and performance. so go ahead it'll be OK

Well, it definately voids whatever kind of warranty you had. Most dealerships won't look at it. You'd have to take it to a garage mechanic if anything went wrong.
