I like the Dunlops, work well on track too.

Are they gone?

Crazy....what are those guys doing so close to the jet stream

Greentops will work fine, but spray pattern isnt the best. I would see what else you can get for the money....

12.4 is slow with your power. Do you have traction issues? Get a set of R tyres perhaps. Otherwise its your launch technique and/or shifting that needs optimization. A 400bhp S4 will do 12.5 with the right driver

You should be doing high 11's imho at least.

Congrats on the new car Simon. I think the handling is the best bit about the beemers and the noise Get an Eisenmann box on there ASAP mate

I wouldnt bother with the remap IMHO.....there are nice kompressor kits though

Dont know if you will get another 50, hard to say....you also have stock manifolds which have tiny ports (again good for torque). I know the APR looks and sounds the part.....thats why I got it, but its still small-ish, think only 2 and a bit inched so in combination with the manifolds it will give ...

Thought I'd comment on my old baby... :wink: Simon, Hmmm......suggestion.....I think it could be the APR exhaust thats restricting the flow. High backpressure can sometimes give you more torque but less highend power due to flow restrictions..... I would try a Miltek dual or something to see if that...

Judging by your driving most cars would feel slow....LMAO.....I took a nap during gear changes... :lol: :roll: Mik si_hill. Having driven and been the passenger in both Zeroks and your car I would have to say that Zeroks has more of a kick and feels a little more torquey as well. It's hard to compar...

2nd....and its kinda obvious that you wont get all that power with stock downpipes, decat'ed or not... :roll: Should be a nice car with 470 though.....am impressed Mik I think the summary is (my interpretation, I may well be wrong), which covers the important parts is: Leon opted for parts of the MR...

I would be interested in the calipers....pm'ed my email if you can send a few pics pls.

What do you mean "you should be OK as long as your not running more than 1.5bar peak max" ? Mik If you log block 115 you will see both requested & actual boost values - you should be OK as long as your not running more than 1.5bar peak max. I would suggest you AMD valves need servicing if they haven...

Hmmmmm.....You sure you arent looking at the coolant temp sensor which is green? And the expansion tank is the RS4 one. Coolant Pump Thermal Switch 93°C is blue.

Diff leaks are normal unfortunately, I experienced it twice with the S4 diff and had to change seals....

Yep the bypass vavles have been serviced before, but perhaps not lately. Should say when exactly in some of the paperwork...

Read the boost with VAG.COM?

Cheers

What do you mean "you dont really lose any torque"? Compression lowering is a thicker head gasket. You can get one from 034 Motorsport at decent price or get one from GUCCI (sorry I mean MTM ;o) Cheers Mik I will still choose the hybrid route though - you dont really loose any torque and always have...
