hello..
Hope the car gives you loads of laughs I've had mine 3 years and I still get a kick out of it!
Bit of advice...give your motor a thorough mechanical shakedown before trying to tune it, I found a whole heap of hidden power just by fixing stuff(the vac pipes as it goes and turbo hoses also).
Enjoy

Yeh - what he said!

See if you can find someone to lend you a kit for pressurising the boost hoses, had my S6 for 4 years (kind of) and only got around to testing them last week (after mapping it to 290hp!!) and found 2 split hoses!!!

Aye, getting rid of boost leaks, running it on 98 and making sure that everything is as it should be is the place to start. Then you're looking at a remap, decent exhaust with de cats and even an uprated intercooler. Best to get the brakes upgraded first though and I'll bet the chassis is a bit wobbly too!
