IC Dippy, I think u (or maybe Nige the other guru, i dont remember) had mentioned b4 that any remap for the 2+ setup wud have to be custom or else it's practically useless, but aptitude of tuners around here make it very difficult to do custom stuff with the ECU. Do you think off the shelf MTM wud d...

yes, some call it downpipe and some call it sports cat. It's actually a combination of the 2. Well, I'm located thousands of miles away here in Asia, so i dont think you're interested in my vendor/installer....

Kudos to the DP

I have just installed the Milltek DP having already done an MTM ECU mod and Milltek dual catback. I'm so happy with the results i really want to share it here. The car has basically transformed from a lazy revver to a hungry beast keep wanting you to keep your foot down until redline. Interesting en...

good luck and enjoy. Do try to avoid dodgy hubcaps like mine. I think both AMD and Achtuning sell reps with genuine hubcaps.

Clive, the topic of suspension mod on the S4 must be scattered all over this chat page, and i must admit I'm not best qualified to advise you on this issue.... But what i have on my car are KW V2 coilovers. No complaints so far, present setting is just right in terms of cornering performance and com...

Julian, - they're 18", look good from a distance, and tacky close up, and stick out a tad. i think i have similar wheels, 5x112, 8x18, 35 offset, all are correct specs. And yes, it looks like it sticks out a little, but only with stock suspension. But once the car is lowered, they stick back flush ...

Help on Downpipe Selection

Am considering replacing my downpipes having run Milltek Dual Catback and MTM ECU for a shortwhile. Having searched thru the numerous available options, I have narrowed down my choices to 2: Milltek and LaBree Divorced Wastergate pipes (from Tantrumwerks) from the US. Need a bit of clarification fro...

Dippy, to compound your decision process further, the RS4 replicas I have on my car, 8" wide, 35 offset with 225/40/18 tires, DO RUB, on hard cornering, especially when going over imperfections (small bumps) mid-corner. Rubbing is very minor between the tire sidewall and the inside of fenders, and t...

F-Hose Q

Have heard so much about F-Hose being a weak link on pre-01 samples. Would like to know it functions and what symptoms to expect when it fails. ( Seems like TBB problems are well documented on these pages but F-Hose not so) If I've overlooked old threads, pls point me to them. Thx.

The time has come for me to upgrade to an MTM ECU mod, and I'm stuck with the following question: Should I stick with my modded N75 and continue to trick out the ECU for that extra 1-3 psi, or should I revert to stock N75 under the assumption that any reconfigured boost will have been optimized by ...
