Just bought a brand new B7 and I love it. Its black/black/stick. I am looking to put some mods on it but can't seem to find any. What companies are making mods for my car these days. Apparently there aren't any ECU's upgrades available. As far as exhaust: Should I get catback, or full exhaust, and what will the benefits of each be. I am new to this upgrade thing, but I want just a little more sound out of the exhaust. Are there any cold air intakes available? How much more power can I expect from an exhaust/ecu/intake package? How much money? Thanks for the help, and happy to be here legit now.

How does the S4 compare to the 996TT. Thanks for the links, and hope to hear from you about the sound difference between the stock and resonated downpipe and cat back exhaust. Any way you could record or let me know how the sound is. I want a more full sound, but i don't want to be like the douchekid with a camaro and flowmasters.

Are there other manufacturers of exhaust and intake systems. Heard something about a carbon intake, which keeps the air cooler.

Pretty tough to compare my 996 TT "S" Cab with my S4 except they are both German and in their respective catagories represent very sophisticated approaches to specific automotive packages. My TT "S" is wickedly fast, 415 factory HP chipped to 550 HP. 0-60 in about 3.9-4.0 seconds. Completely different handling and no brake dust due to the Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (worth $every penny of the $10K upgrade!).

I have a link for sound clips on the S4 with the downpipes & cats with full catback resonated system. I will try to post the link tomorrow. There is no other company offering exhaust systems with the build quality and different levels of sound than Milltek. For the S4 you won't find better. A little sound, go with the downpipes & cats. A bit more sound go with the resonated catback only. Moderate sound combine the downpipes & cats with the catback system. Full LOUD sound, downpipes & cats with NON resonated catback system.

 

I just got the full milltek setup on my B7. I got the resonated one and it is pretty loud over the stock but not ricy at all. It is a nice deep grunt. Software is out but the ecus in the B7 are different from the B6 so they can't be flashed. At least not yet. I am having my ecu pulled and shipped out to get the upgrade done. As far as power gains, I can't be sure because I haven't done my second dyno run yet, but should be about 45-50 whp with everything.

 

guys, we can't compare a turbo, ESPECIALLY turbo s, to an s4. that is totally different type of animal. hell, if i could have one car in the entire world to drive every single day, it would be a 911 turbo. definetly the most intense car i have ever driven
