I’m doing this upgrade as we speak, dual pulley, heat exchanger, and throttle body upgrade with stage 2 IE ecm and tcm tunes. I’m JONESINGfor 500hp or even 450 hp would be so so awesome. Take off your engine covers and the hood lining, it will be good for 2 less degrees.
@@TheFittingBay Hello! I recently went stock to stage 2. And I am installing a heat exchanger as well. But i wad wondering if I wanted to go Crank Pulley upgrade as well. I've heard your cats go bad and was wondering what happens with that? I wanna upgrade my crank pulley but just worried about the domino effect or spending.
@@MrSamoannn cats will go bad eventually so what I did was just go test pipes to fix that issue but it makes the csr sound like shi* currently working on a good exhaust solution to post
@@TheFittingBay JH Motorsports in California USA has your solution with test pipes (baffled if you want no drone) and hi flow cats. I have 2012 A6 with APR dual pulley, APR CPS intercooler, AWE touring exhaust with resonated down pipes, AWE S-Flow intake. Two weeks ago I was curious about cats (85K miles) and removed O2 sensor, endoscope inspection revealed honeycomb structure of cats is mostly blocked. I researched solutions and based on my mods JH motorsports has a kit for just about every 3.0 V6 Audi. Plus installing high flow cats will allow me to install APR UltraCharger throttle body kit. jhmotorsports.com/
I'm currently going to put 207mm crank pulley (dual pulley like) on my SQ5 2015... did you put it already? I'm stage 1 now... what is the difference in power? Feeling? Tell me please
Hi! Is your S4 a B8 or 8.5? Just wondering how you got the apple play to work on the MMI? The car looks good! I have a 2011 S4 with just a ecu remap at the moment, about 435hp now but next up the exhaust system.
Hey man! Mine is a B8. Did you see my video on the apple carplay install? I did a tutorial video on the install and we also sell the kit for these cars at www.shoptfb.com. Thank you! If you ever decide to go single or dual pulley you will be amazed with how much faster it is and how hard it pulls!
The Fitting Bay Nice, didn’t see that one! I will definitely check it out, thanks! Yeah, I might give the single or dual pulley a chance at some point!
Your plm heat exchanger, would you recommend it or go with something else? I don't think I wanna spend 1000usd on one, but if I had to, I'd just get a heat exchanger for an s6 to keep it cooler on my s4.
PLM has been great man, I might do some IATS for you guys but I have gone on drives and hammered it for a few hours and the power holds up fine, no heat soak.
Question. Im modding my audi a6 and was wondering if I am able to jump from Stock to Stage 2. And if I can do I need to have Stage 1 and stage 2 together or I just buy stage 2 only?
Retro Plays Hey man, yep sure did and I forgot all about it until the end of the day. No damage was done thank god. You can access it from underneath the car with a long cutting tool and spend about 10 mins cutting it off it’s quite easy actually
In my opinion it’s all the same shit like I don’t think you’re gonna see huge differences, not big enough to justify the cost but I could be wrong. The used the private label one it seems to be great
@@TheFittingBay Thanks man. 034 are the only ones that I can find to actually show specs and measurements before and after the upgrade. You are probably right though! The welds look a bit rough on the PLM and even on the APR one but doesn't mean anything as far as capability goes I guess.
Ramiro Benedetti Yep needs to be done. They will eventually fail. I’ve ordered some already just waiting for them to arrive and it’s a massive job to do also :(
@@TheFittingBay Thank you very much for answering. There are several options on that page and I don't know which one it is. Can you tell me which one did you buy?
@@TheFittingBay what did the difference feel like from single pulley to dual pulley with throttle body? I’m stage 2 single pulley on 100octane until today. Installing 190mm crank pulley from 034 and bigger throttle body from IE. Test pipes and ported supercharger are next. but seriously how big of a difference is it ?
What’s up man. Yeah IE TCU and ECU to go with. Pretty much have all IE upgrades for this except the FP. And when you go this hard on upgrades you’re not really worried about good fuel consumption haha cause it sucks.
Im from vic too man, what do you reckon the chances are of me finding a used S4 B8.5 with around 100,000kms for $25k? theres nothing on carsales just used B8s....
Joshua Winfield Hey man. The B8.5 are very expensive here I honestly don’t think you’ll find one at that price. Unless they go down in value but they seem to be getting popular now so who knows what’ll happen. The b8.5 looks way better
@@TheFittingBay thanks for the response, out here in the states our headrests are taller. i’m realizing that the euro ones are hard to get a hold of. yo i’m also hyped on your videos dude. that vinyl wrap project would have been an anxiety moment for me haha
@@jeffwithglasses6976 ahh I see, well if I ever break this car and part it out the head rests are yours haha! Thanks man! Dude the vinyl wrap was one of the hardest things I’ve done to a car 😂 I’ll probably do it again in the future to get better at it but it’s definitely a challenge that’s for sure
