Cold Air intake

I recently fitted a BMC carbon dynamic airbox (CDA) to my RS4.Getting straight to the point,it did not work as expected!The car ran very rich,especially at startup and under hard acceleration.Quite a lot of black smoke out the exhaust.The only other mod to the car is a Milltek cat back "racing" exha...

Just a small point.With respect to tramlining,have you checked your tyre pressures lately?I have noticed a real reduction in tramlining if the pressures are set correctly and checked on a regular basis.Over time the pressures change differently in each wheel and as its a gradual thing you dont notic...

For those interested,the Euroline S2 has been fully rebuilt and entered the NZ Dunlop Targa last month and placed 22nd
out of 230 entries.The last two stages were run with only 2 gears!Easily beat a a fully MTM prepared S3!!

Thanks Prawn!I first contacted Stasis by email.I waited 2 weeks and got no reply so I rang them.I was told my enquiry had been forwarded to APR.Of course,there has been nothing from APR!!

Stasis coilovers and brakes

Anyone have experience using Stasis (USA) coilover suspension or brake kits on their RS4?They seem to have a good reputation in the States,but getting any response from them or their dealers seems to be a real mission!
