Another amazing experience out with Marcus is in the books! Thanks for another great day of filming brother. You always manage to make me look and sound better than I actually do 🤣 After seeing how much wheel hop you experienced on that second run I'm thankful you didn't break the damn thing! LOL. Till next time!!!
Love the opening with the fog of the Pacific Northwest. Love how low key the S4 looks especially from the side and rear. Im a B8 supercharged fan and as soon as I saw the plates i knew that was shot at the B8 lol. Amazing car this B9.
@@anonamoose1891 lmao tbh I see a lot of hate and jealousy in person and on the internet and it's honestly just sad. We need more love and positivity, life is already hard asf sometimes. Words are very powerful and they can have a deep impact on someone. Sometimes you might just say f this shit cause no one reciprocates and you may become a hater urself. One thing I would like to say is NEVER fold and become like everyone else. Always stay true to yourself and stay away from people who hate and are negative 24/7. We honestly need more love man the world is freezing cold and you have the power to warm it up.
@@TrogIodyt3 He has so much commitment into Audi and VAG. I had/drove S4, RS4, RS3, RS6, GTI, SEAT CUPRA R, Lupo GTI, Polo GTI etc they have been headache and i was glad i lived near Germany for the parts. Can't imagine the pain and investment especially in North America where parts are crazy expensive and the mechanical experience on German cars is not there.
It blows my mind that Audi managed to build a successor to the EA837 that can handle more power. 700+ HP on a stock block is impressive, staggering thinking about how it's running nearly double the factory power.
@@edgartapia148 yes there are 800whp b58 on stock block that’s around 920bhp, just big turbo and upgraded fuel system. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hdpJRC7BO4A.html
I agree they aren't the best looking wheel on this car, but they are light he said he had downgraded brakes so I'm sure he was going for weight loss and the least amount of unsprung weight.
I know at least 9 S4 that will do that time bruh B5-B6-B7 all day homie need to look on RU-vid alil more Especially the b5s twin single don’t matter these Audis do those pulls💯🚀🤷🏽♂️
We have now torn it apart. It didn't "blow up". It was missing an upper control ring from the factory and once it got too hot during a 1/4 mile run, it must have expanded and allowed oil by. That resulted in low octane in cylinder 5 which then lost a spark plug tip.
@@Audikeeef he's referring to my RS3 racecar that I down-badged as a Jetta. He was just making a joke. Then I responded with a Passat because I down-badged my last B8 S4 as a Passat.
I downgraded my brakes so that I could fit smaller/lighter wheels and fit meatier tires to allow for much better traction. Not to mention less rotational mass playing a huge role in going fast.

What’s the down side to high ethanol ratios compared to “pump gas,” if any? In other words, why aren’t all cars running on high ethanol (probably a stupid question).
It really depends on the platform, but in general, to run full e85 (no blend), you will need to make sure you have the fuel system to do so as ethanol contains less energy per its volume when compared to gasoline- around 30-40% more flow will be needed to achieve the same power when compared to pump gas. That will vary setup to setup, with different requirements in fueling components. Ethanol is a form of alcohol and is corrosive, so depending on the year of the vehicle, you may have to do a flush with a tank of 93/pump gas or some sort of ethanol cleaner, also ethanol attracts moisture so people will tend to not let their vehicles sit for days on end if there is ethanol in the tank. The availability of ethanol, is it not widely available everywhere. The last thing I can think of is ethanol acquired from the pump at a general gas station will not always be exactly 85% ethanol, and because of the varying ethanol percentage, aggressive tunes on the limit of timing vs knock will require extra care with the use of an ethanol percentage tester or a ethanol content sensor. I may have missed a few things, but that’s what comes to my head when you ask, “why doesn’t every tuner car run ethanol”.
Sadly that is the only tune IE has to run their Stage 3+ E70 tune. They don't have a non-crackle option which freakin' sucks because the car sounds ridiculous with them.

Marcus didn't state what I was going after correctly, that's all. I'm well aware that there are faster S4's from other generations. I was simply trying to have the world's quickest B9 S4. Which means from 2018 - 2023 built S4's.
🤣🤣🤣First issue? I damaged the damn engine, LOL. That's not a minor repair. With that said it looks like I'll be repairing the B9 now and continuing the build but in a different direction now.
Try engaging the emergency brake and start pumping breaks, then release emergency brake and pump slightly more, car shouldn’t creep up after this procedure. . This should help immensely, doesn’t hurt to try. 😉
I don't get wheel hop normally, but in this video Marcus launched the car with much more boost than I ever would have in the conditions we were testing in. If you are experiencing that, try lowering your tire pressures to help your tires flex more and absorb some of that movement.
Just a quick suggestion on the launch control. If you put your left foot on the brake hard, put it in neutral, and rev it, your left foot and the brake pedal will go to the floor, giving you more brake pressure. Once that’s done, put it in drive and proceed with the launch control. I bet you it makes it much better.
That technique doesn't work as well. I've already figured out the best way to launch these cars and you need to pump up the brakes previous to holding down the brake or your car creeps forward.
Didn't he say he has an s3 before and had a few places play w it but he did like something about it I forgot what he said but the s3 through a few ppl namely iroz motorsports can be dailyd I believe while having the ability to push a few buttons on the map controller and make like 900 or more just like tha.. it's AWD but not a true AWD and has less displacement but for my money I mean those straight 5s are bloody fast
I've had both an S3 and an RS3. The RS3 I still own. The RS3's potential for power is much, MUCH greater than these B9's. They are on another level of performance and these B9's don't even come close.
My 2015 S5 stage 2 (with open air intake) is a daily driver and on normal driving conditions.. i never hear the supercharger 🤔 what are you talking about?!
Anyone want to chime in and give me some advice on tire size?? 2022 Rs5 with 20” summer would 18” rims and more rubber look ridiculous? Anyone have experience with this ??
If you went catless you would’ve been in the 9s. The first thing I’ve always done to all my cars is remove the cats and it opens up lots of power and potential from other mods.
@@knyred2366 with additional upgrades I’m sure. From a ‘just tune’ perspective (stage 1 93 octane and stage 2 TCU), It looks like 034 has better numbers.
Not sure what "rinsed" means. If you are asking would a Tesla Plaid beat my car in a race? Absolutely. Costing nearly 3 to 4 times what my car does, I sure hope it would!
