What we have here is a beautiful Ibis White 2012 Audi S5 Cab that one of our clients just took delivery and the same day gave us a call to order APR's 3.0T Software upgrade, APR/Carbonio Stage 1 + 2 Carbon Intakes, APR Motorsport's Cooling System upgrade, and APR's Motorsport's 3.0T Pulley upgrade. He brought the car to us brand spanking new with less than 300 miles on the car itching for some more power..... :)
There is one small unique thing about this install and it has to do with the cooling system upgrade. You cannot install the full kit from APR on the S5 Cab's.... The reason is that the S5 Cab has a weight installed by Audi from the factory where the APR's water pump addition would normally get installed. This weight sits just under the passenger headlight behind the front bumper. According to APR this was a first to them as they did most of their testing on their S4's and the customer did not want to remove anything that was installed from Audi that might serve a specific purpose which this weight is used to help balance the car's weight since most cabs typically carry a little more weight in the rear. Its called a balance weight in Audi's parts catalog FYI....
Now onto the installation.........
The Cooling System was installed first.












Here is a picture of the weight I was referring to.
