Default How to INCREASE TORQUE in a S4??

Im wondering. I know there is a chip that can increase it about 25%. But I want more than 25%. Any other options?

Default no idea

no idea really. dont even have it yet. but im pretty sure a 2010 or better.

if i could get somewhere around 500lbs of torque in a s4 that would be super.

this guy seems to have done it: http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f176/...j-rubi-810697/

Currently, the best figures for the supercharged V6 in the B8 or B8.5 are about 377 ft. lbs. at the wheels with a chip and pulley upgrade. An example can be found here...
APR 3.0 TFSI Supercharger Pulley Upgrade

The S4 in your link is a B5 (2000-2002) which is a twin turbo V6 that has much more modding potential. If you're truly looking for 500+ ft. lbs. of torque from an Audi, you're looking for a S6 or better with the twin turbo V8. Stock on the S6/S7 is 460, chipped to 580.
APR Audi S6 & S7 4.0 TFSI V8 ECU Upgrade
For the S8/ RS7, you're looking at 560 stock, chipped at 700.
APR Audi RS6 & RS7 4.0 TFSI V8 ECU Upgrade

A third option would be going stage 3 on a TT-RS.
APR 2.5 TFSI Stage III GTX Turbocharger System

APR, GIAC, and a few other reputable tuners have been tuning (chipping) ECU's for years. If you're looking at some $59.99 chip that triples your HP and MPG, then yeah, that's complete BS.
