i just did a "dairintake" on my 02 s4. looking to chip the car in the very near future. reading the GIAC web page, tells me i need to have a cold air intake in combination with the ecu mod. my question is; does the dairintake pull enough CFM to meet those requirements? also, i did put in a k&n airfilter, but its a panel filter. i know the cone filters pull more cfm, but i'm hoping to get away with the panel filter for the time being.

 

youll be fine. i run the exact same thing and im stage 2+. you wont need to worry abut cold air really until you go stage 3.

 

Your all set, there arent really any good intakes for this car. Even when you go stage 3 most people keep the stock airbox or use the RS4. Only intake worth getting is the X1 carbon fiber open element intake IMO

 

thats good to know! thanks for the info! stage 3 is a ways down the road, i'll deal with the intake shortcomings when it comes.
