my fantasy S4

[madmadS4]

Stratmosphere intake for +8hp
APR exhaust for +18hp
034 Motorsport down-pipes for +22 whp
Eurocode headers for for +30 whp
APR ECU for +77 whp
Snow performance meth for +30 hp
GMG or APR SC pulley for +25 hp
Carbon fiber hood -25 lbs
Carbon fiber trunk lid -12lbs
OZ Allegerrita wheels -40 lbs
Lightweight battery -40 lbs

So what does this fantasy S4 do in the 1/4 mi?
Oh by the way... these parts are all available.. just need the cash.

So your gonna run headers from Euro code and headers from 034 motorsports? LOL

[madmadS4]

hey its a fantasy. so what.. they overlap right?

[S-Fore]

Yeah, you might want to ditch one, or your just gonna add some of that weight back :)
Not sure if your kidding or not, but when you look at the eurocode headers, the part after the collector (3>1) where the O2 is, is the down pipe section that 034 sells to mate to the OEM manifolds.

There's only one way to find out ;)

[K1speeder]

Not a bad idea. That could be a wicked fast car. Time to get it started!

x2!

[K1speeder]

I forgot to mention that new brakes could be a weight reduction of 50-70lbs also

[madmadS4]

oh yeah? do you know which ones? how much do ours weigh? is there a penalty regarding stopping power?

[Voltrons_Head]

Don't you wish you could stack HP like this?

[madmadS4]

yeah... well. fantasy right. I didn't add up the values! Impossible to say how all these mods will add up.

i thought APR states 327WHP to 362WHP?
and no, it is not a simple math of adding all these numbers unfortunately... :-)

[JEmm]

S4 +~190 hp, and -~117 lbs. I'd say 9's at least...






(Note the sarcasm in every aspect of that post...)

[tylerS]

i bet you'll be running 10s

[beemercer]

cumulative power additions ftw lol

[BKNYCS4]

10s for sure

[S-Fore]

No way, 10 maybe. I had a 355mm 6pot kit on my B7 and JHM rear rotors and it was about 10# difference at best. That is my first hand experience anyhow.

[K1speeder]

oh yeah? do you know which ones? how much do ours weigh? is there a penalty regarding stopping power?

No there is not any compromise in stoping power. They are actually better. I can't seem to find the thread yet but I am looking.

[Saracen]

Fire Extingisher + 100hp
Full Cage + 50hp
Stickers + 5000hp
24" Subs + 1million hp

[K1speeder]

Here is another resource when considering wheels. If anyone else saw the post about the weight reduction of new brakes, please post.

[Voltrons_Head]

Subs + 1million hp

Those must be JLW7's - LOL

[Voltrons_Head]

I good car wash always makes my car feel faster. That's gotta be good for 25-30HP. Also, the stereo sounds better when the inside is clean. That's good for 100 Watts RMS.

[madmadS4]

well you can go to tirerack and list out all the wheels for your car. then click Sort by: Weight. choosing Enkei over the OZ would have saved 2.4 lbs, but I thought they looked like crap.

[JEmm]

If you really want light wheels that look good why not go custom 3 piece forged? Obviously they'll be much more expensive but if that's what you want it's pretty worth it imo.

[S-Fore]

You don't really believe that do you? You cannot measure HP via reduction of rotating mass, other than by "calculating" HP/LB or time trials. It has no power impact on a dyno, I know from first hand experience.

[krunko]

That was my post, but I can't find it. I believe the weight savings was around 60lb. Way higher than I expected.

[Keith@APR]

I can't believe no one else thought to ask,

But exactly how many decals are you going to run and with what placement?

There is definitely some power right there that we are forgetting, he might see 10s :)

I don't believe the hp gains. I was merely showing the weight reduction by those sets of wheels. I think the graph is crap. AND its on a different car...

I think that LEDs on the license plate makes my car faster. At night when I can see the glow reflecting off my bumper, it must ad 5-10 more hp

These mods will not add linearly by the way in terms of WHP.

[A5MD]

Don't forget the Audizine license plate frame....rumor has it that its good for a minimum of 5whp

[Un1k]

where can I get this lightweight battery??

[vincent9993]

where can I get this lightweight battery??

Probably here:
Odyssey Batteries

Older post about the conversion

click the performance mods link (in my sig)

[madmadS4]

sorry. click the weight reductions link.

[vincent9993]

click the performance mods link (in my sig)

$1,500.00 for a battery!!! Is it made of unobtanium??? I can understand it's lighter than the Odyssey but price is unreal!

[madmadS4]

yeah I know. see the comment though - and other batteries on that website. they go down to the $150 range too...

Someone in my area spotted this - has to be good for at LEAST 35HP

Honda Civic S-CX

[Voltrons_Head]

Too funny! They say it's good for 35 but that's under rated by the mfg as to not hurt accord S-lx sales.

That is SICK!!!
