Hey, im new here and dont currently own an s4...yet..I currently own a 98forebord formula. Alot of mods, runs mid 11s..but im kinda tired of it. Its not reliable, breaks something new every week. Contemplating selling it for something I can enjoy more and just drive and not worry about as much. Been looking around at 01-02 S4s.

Im totally aware of how pricey mods are for the S4. But how quick can one be with say...BOV, chip, and an exhaust? Not wanting to upgrade turbos, just some basic bolt ons so theres nothing to really worry about breaking it.

Also, any main sites for rims and tires? I cant find anything really asides from tirerack and ebay. Which really dont show anything...and dont even mention HRE lol

 

Hi diesel_Ls1, welcome to the forum.

With chip and exhaust you'll probably be in the 12s. Do not put a bov in an audi, they are meant to use Diverter valves.

wow, didnt think they could go that fast with such little mods...definatly interesting..can you further explain about the diverter and why not a bov? im curious. Thanks for the links too

another thing..has anyone ever tried a cutout on an s4? I work at www.quicktimeperformance.com and we specialize in electronic cutouts, is there room to put cutouts on the stock downpipes? We have had HUGE success rates with putting cutouts on downpipes utilizing the stock exhaust. Any feedback on this?

Im hoping by spring I can sell off my formla and find an 01-02 s4, im really digging them...except for the interior, cuz of the stupid wood grain dash. I really hate that wood lol

thanks again!

 

for rims and tires, wheelmax.com

 

thanks for the rim site, and ive been looing around on the net and stumbled onto this

so now apparently everyone is going to a BOV on the s4s? Anybody got any more information about this?

 

ummmm probably not, that post is from 2002. BOVs are not and will never be healthy for the engine.

 

NNOOOOOO!!!!!!! There wheels will not bolt up without being a pain in the ***!!!!!!! and there customer service sucks. they charged me $250 to ship the wheels back to them and a $200 restocking fee (i olny paid 800 for the wheels and tires) and they said i could not order from them anymore. plus it took like a week or two before we could get someone on the phone. there office hours are like from 11PM CENTRAL TIME TO 12AM

 

r u sure?!?! my buddy just got his rims there and the only thing bad about them was that they charged an extra $100 to put the tires and rims togather and have them rotated. I found rims there and im going to try to buy them. ill tell u how it goes

 

ah ok..so no BOV, divertors dont make the stupid woosh noise do they? Also, how well do the stock shocks hold up to a drop? Basically, can I be cheap and get some eibach springs and leave the stock shocks? lol
