In my quest for an air intake system for my 2011 S4, I stumbled across a Kijiji ad for air intake systems for B8 S4. Decided to call the guy up.
Anyway, the guy's name is Daniel of DVB2 Sport Imports Limited (Toronto area) and he makes his own products for the B8 / 8.5 platform (and has stuff for other cars as well):
- Intake system (Patterned after Roc Euro) uses K&N filter, not made in China. Does not include heat shield (limited usefulness on a short ram intake on moving vehicle) or breather filter (doesn't want to be liable for legal issues if people get pulled over for Ontario emissions he said, but you can get a cheap ebay one for $3 so who cares, right?)
- S/C pulley
- Long tube headers (pretty much a clone of Eurocode headers at fraction of the price)
Daniel was very good about answering questions and giving his reasons for designing the products the way he did, and all the pictures sent looked pretty good. Was willing to take a chance and be a "guinea pig" but I ended up with a local deal on a used Roc Euro intake for $75 cheaper than buying intake from Daniel, so I went with the cheaper option.
Considering the headers as an option down the road, but with the amount of work to install, I would want to know they are decent from someone who has actually run his products.
So I thought I would post up so we can get a bit of discussion about this new company and what they offer. See if anyone has some information to share about their experiences. I searched the forums but no one seems to have anything to say about them yet.
Good / Bad / Meh? I am curious what the word on the street is. He's selling products, so someone must have something to share.......
