New to the world of rs4 :)

Post by G__humm » Fri Mar 02, 2012 4:18 pm

Hi after looking for a while I found myself a nice rs4

I am looking to do really minor things at first.

What do you people recommend for air filter setups and upgrading the diverter valves?

(my old car is the polo bit of a jump)

That is superb mate, love the misano b5 rs4. The golf looks pretty smart too. Sadly the b5 forum is quiet on this site. Think mrc do a panel filter replacement

Panel filter is more than adequate unless running serious power

And again OEM 710N DVs are again up to the job

We have both in stock, DVs and replacement K&N or BMC panel filters.

very nice, thanks for sharing!

I would suggest a suspension upgrade including PSS9 or KW-3 coil overs and H&R fat anti-roll bars or similar, if it has not been done already.

The drive will be much more enjoyable and more likely to stay on the road :mrgreen:

Yes a bit quiet, not like the good old days! Lots of us still here though.
