How much bhp and torque do you expect to gain? Also, how much will it cost?

Prices are on Mrc's website, as far as bhp and torque around a 20% increase, I guess !?
Mines a manual and a launch spec model (reg april '09) so will be interesting to see the results.

Around 470 hp is the highest not SC dyno I have seen on here but I could be wrong.
This is the B8 forum mate

These are proper quick with a pulley and map, nice sounding too with the centre box removed....

They'll leave the new RS4 for dead! MRCs S4 does the 0 to 60 sprint it the low 3 seconds IIRC.

Is there not a downpipe upgrade available?

Probably but gains are minimal compared to the massive gains from mapping! I'd just want a big more noise if I moved to a B8 from my non-res Milltek V8....

Look forward to hearing your thoughts once you've got it done. I'm a new S4 owner and lurked for a while before getting the right one for me, with a stg 2 and pulley on my list to do early next year.
