any downsides to having them rolled. I removed the screw aswell.....still slightly rubbing and I dont wanna raise her.

[gneboardin]

What exhaust is that? Because that is Well Done!

Hey Oatmeal. Is there a chance that your buddy may have done a sound byte with that exhaust on?

I need to know what valence this is. I have a Miltek RS4 exhaust that is going to be fabbed and installed on mine but want to find a new valence wrather than cutting and painting my stock one.

[gneboardin]

Because going up to a 2.5 isn't going to hurt the power or torque. I put it on Friday and it sounds and feels great. I'll post up pictures soon too. The oval tips look so much bettern than the dinky stock ones.

[ALWAYS4UDI]

boredom led to this shot. i heart my awe cat back a shit ton... it makes the rear of the car.
and yes, i know i still have the damn flaps on. they'll be coming off when the car gets kitted.

[gneboardin]

Hmmmm, Milltek, AWE and APR seem to think so. But what do they know?

Wow I'm sorry I offended your precious beliefs that their word is gospel. Good thing it's on my car and not yours. Don't worry I'll continue to enjoy it and take no stock in what you have to say whatsoever. The more free flowing exhaust will help with future modifications...

I would be interested in what future mods you will be utilizing in the appropriate forum. Until then, less backflow pressure could be costly for perf.

[ZONAWILDCATS4]

Ya unless you plan on buying that twin turbo kit (that doesn't exist) then its a complete waste, agree 100% with RAudi.

[gneboardin]

Not that I feel I have to defend my decision to you guys but when you get a beautifully made Milltek RS4 exhaust for free, it makes for an easier choice. Plus we're only talking .25'' on a catback. It isn't like a I went from a 2.25'' to a 3''. The car feels strong without any power loss when driving. I don't have any actual numbers to prove it, but the feel, sound, look is good enough for me. There will be some quality FI kits available..it's only a matter of time.

[iconoclast]

placebo effect because of the sound imo... drive with earplugs see if the power is still there lol.

[gneboardin]

haha good call...I'll just turn the radio up and retest this weekend :-)

[iconoclast]

it doesnt really matter one way or the other if its just your everyday car... as long as youre pleased with the results thats all that matters bc after all... its your car and you drive it... not anyone else.

Welcome - nice looking car.

Any reason why you're getting an intake? Have you done a search on the topic here?

[AndreNY]

thanx guys wheels are RS6 reps 19X9 all around 225/35/19 with Fully Adjustable FK coilovers

[lrae]

Andre, you changed out your coilovers and your wheels?? what was wrong with the H&R's?

[CHECKERED]

I’m getting the Carbonio intake, adding some bling to the engine bay, but mostly I’m getting it for the sound, don't really care if it adds power...

[channad]

white seats look great!

[RAudi Driver]

hey guys new to the site...

Have your rear rotors been painted? If they are black, they that's my old car and you have GIAC softeware loaded into the car.

[Alister]

Certainly adds some bling and a bit of intake noise.

From all accounts power goes backwards though.

[ClayFighter]

LOL What a trip! You started this thread with that B6.

Back when I was in the Honda camp, I found all sorts of Spoon goodies on a motor I had shipped over that went unnoticed by the seller. Hope that GIAC is still loaded IF this is in fact the same car.

when you say rear rotors do you mean rear calipers? And no they are not painted, that car was owned by someone that had no clue what they were doing, when I was cleaning the intake system, it was like dumping a vacume bag...gross...

[Bennie]

here some from Holland








ps: I love the Lorinser rims on the B6, anymore pics available?

[CHECKERED]

so....the intake was on Back Order...
so i took the opportunity to cancel the order, pending further investigation as to lost power...

Which bulbs are those/where did you order them from?

[CHECKERED]

Which bulbs are those/where did you order them from?

I got them from http://autolumination.com

For the license plate, vanity light, and main interior lights you need 39mm SMT aka 6418

http://autolumination.com/festoon.htm

The exact once that I got are the High Powered 9 Led SMT Festoon in white (about a third down the page 9.99 each)

For the map light you need Ba9s Bayonet aka 64111
http://autolumination.com/otherleds.htm

first one on the page 6.99 each

the step lights and under feet lights are 194 wedge,

they have many different once. Most of the LED’s are facing forward, but for this specific application you need a wide angel because the bulb sits sideways.
http://autolumination.com/194.htm
I went with 194 168 W5W 2825 Super Wide Angle Superstar Bulbs 7.99 each ( about a third down the page

Let me know if you have anymore questions…

[vincere]

Here are a few pictures of my 2005 S4.




I bought this car in July and it is still pretty stock except for the wheels and a few Vag Com tweaks. My car had 34,000 miles on it when purchased and is a CPO car.

how much did you pay for it?

oops, yes I meant calipers. too bad it isn't my old car, because it ran real nice and never had a problem. I got hosed on the trade-in though, $24k.
