Her All,

New to the forum, and very excited!

I am an RS and R8 enthusiast. Currently own a 2017 R8 V10 Plus (blk on red), and looking to buy a used RS4 B8 as a daily driver.

(1) Is there anyway to make the exhaust crackle and pop on down shifts etc? Love the original sound, but would prefer a bit more noise :)

(2) I have seen a picture of the rs6 steering wheel (same as the rs4) with the new steering push buttons used in 2nd gen R8s, along with LCD screen (shift light). Any clue if these buttons work and how to add them to steering wheel?

Thank you all :)

might have been spoilt with a v10!

you can remap for crackle and bangs but need to go de-cat or they wont last long

think the steering wheel can be done but isnt plug and play, have a look on audi-sport.net

(1) if you put the car into sport mode it will open up the valves in the exhaust and you will get the desired effect.
(2) what car you get will have the correct steering wheel for that car.
good luck on getting you're car.
