well i am getting my first s4, and i want to get some mods for it.

i am gonna get an apr chip for it, unless the car has it already and it is turned off, i will check on todays test drive.

i also need some diverter valves, because the ones that are on it appear to be stock. ???? where do i get the 710n or 710p from? i have found the forged ones but where do i buy the 710's from, please post a website for me.

I am planning on getting a cai and a boost guage. i have searched and found the boost guage i want but am still up in the air on the cold air. any reccomendations would be nice.

also i am gonna get a samco tbb just to be safe. thanks for the help.

If you do a search on "cold air intakes" on the forum, you will find that people that know Audis will tell you not to waste your money.

You should also look at the companies that sponser on the forum. I'll bet you a big turbo that they have plenty of these.

 

If you want intake, i guess get a drop in K&N, thats your best bet for most flow. There is no such thing as a CAI for the s4, cuz there is no room under the hood for it, and the only place we can fit the intake (where it already is) is right next to the engine and turbos and it is mad hot. Plus, with a drop in you wont feel any gains until you are stage 3, adn in that case id say contact X-1 racer on AW, he makes a custom carbon fiber heat shield for the exhaust, that with a cone filter is the best intake for stage 3's, other than that its a dropin with the "darintake" mod, go to s4biturbo to find out more about that. For the DV's, im pretty sure that Ecstuning.com has them, not positive though, and too lazy to check. But good job searching about the DV's, TBB etc., most people are too stupid to use the search and if you look down there are 10000000000 posts on "what should my first mod be". More power too ya, and good luck.

 

well i found a good deal on the diverter valves after a detailed search of some audi forums. now my buddy has a intake on his s4, i believe it is the lltek intake. what are peoples thoughts on that intake.


also does anyoneknow of a boost gauge kit that fits in the air vent to the left of the steering wheel instead of the ones to the right that i have already found.

thanks guys

cant wait to pick it up when i get off of work.

 

Its the same boost guage, all of the vents are the same size, so you can put it into any vent you want (im almost positive)

 

ok cool well i guess i will try to put it in the vent on the left then.


oh i got the s4 yesterday, man this thing is sweet. cant wait to mod it.

 

Nice! Congrats on the ride, and good luck with hte boost guage!

 

you may want to look into hyperboost dvs as well, i blew my 710n's pretty bad, the hyperboost ive had for almost a year now and no problems :-)

where do i buy the hyperboost diverters from?


i did the darian intake mod. i bought a drop in k&n filter and pulled out the lower part of the air box and i basically cut out more holes for air to enter through. i must say it is very noticable in the upper rpm range before it would be very obvious the turbos were running out of air.
