RE: Garages- trusting them with our pride and joy

AAh may be this only happens when you replace it with a new one. Sorry guys my fault. Will still stop turbos blowing at full power though.

RE: Garages- trusting them with our pride and joy

Disconnect your N75 valve. Even if they spot it and reconnect it they'll have to disconnect battery to reset it. Doubt they'll know about that. I did that with the Mrs's TT, made it like driving a milk float.

RS6 Calipers & Discs

Hi Clive

I've got a S4 B5 Avant 2001 facelift model, The one with the dodgy black wheels!!! I've bought a set of the 18" B7 alloys so bigger discs are now an option.
This sounds like an exellent move. I like the fact there audi parts. Where's best to get them from, Audi direct?

cheers Ben

Tar-ox big brake upgrade....Any good?

I'm thinking of going for a Tar-ox 6 pot big brake upgrade using grooved 330mm X 30mm discs. It seems quite resonably priced at £1600 inc VAT. But does anyone out there know if Tar-ox are any good. Be greatful for your views, or any other recommendations. I know the MovIT upgrade is probably the bes...

Hi Saf, Morning to you. I only had the KO4s fitted because the KO3s failed and the 4s are ment to be a mutch stronger unit. At the time, big power was not my aim as I was quite happy with the stage 1 power gains. She is slightly quicker now with the 4s and I only notice very slite over boost between...

Hi Chubby

Kim @ QST was going to order me in the RS4 Quattro GmbH suspension upgrade, from Quattro GmbH themselves. He should be able to help, he should at least have their contact details.

Good luck

Since then I've done a few bits. One of my KO3 bearings died, so I had KO4s fitted, I've had RS4 GmbH suspension and thats all. Still running the stock exhaust. Sounds completely different now with the KO4s though. For an extra 15-20 BHP can't see the point. Have bought RS4 intercoolers and will soo...

Hi Saf I too have a facelift S4 avant on a Y reg. I chose MTM over all the rest. Kim Collins has been in this game for a long time. He is well known in Germany as well as England. It may seem that you are paying a premium over other companies, but I always belive in paying for what I want, and short...

RS6 Calipers and discs wanted

Hi there lucky RS6 owners.... Thought I'd pop over from the S4 side and enquire a little. Have any of you guys, by any chance, upgraded your stock brake calipers and discs, front and back or just front, and are looking to sell your stock ones on. Apparently there quite a good, not too expensive, upg...

Precausion

Hi there, Sorry to hear about your blower. Same thing happened to me last year. As a precausion Kim @ QST told me to disconnect the cables to the N75 valve. This will stop them trying to boost above 0.5 bar or something around that. Good luck with the KO4s, the only way is up now!
