10 second barrier broken by EuroCode using the APR/Magnuson TVS1740 supercharger kit

[Info@EuroCode]

The team at EuroCode is proud to announce that we are the first company in the world to break the 10 second barrier for the B8 S4 3.0 platform. As you all know we have spent tremendous amount of time focusing on this chassis and have competed with it on the road course as well as the drag strip. We have made various parts to improve upon this fantastic platform and they have been well received, and we thank you for this. Fast forward to 6 years later and we are still hard at work for you trying to push boundaries. We are also the first company in the world to build a 3.0TFSI motor with forged internals and have pistons and rods made just for this application. We are also the inventors of the Alu Kreuz chassis X brace that makes the front end of these cars much tighter which has been copied by others.

If you are interested in purchasing this setup or simply have questions, feel free to contact us we would love to hear from you.





1. APR tuned Magnuson TVS1740 supercharger upgrade (using 104oct fuel)
2. APR DSG DL501 S-Tronic Transmission Software (stage 3 specific)
3. EuroCode 3.0TFSI headers
4. Fast intentions cat back system
5. EuroCode High flow air filter using stock airbox
6. AMS ALPHA PERFORMANCE Audi S4 B8.5 cooler system
7. P3 vent gauge track pack with AFR
8. EuroCode 3.0TFSI boost tap
9. KW HAS adjustable springs
10. EuroCode USS front and rear sway bay kit
11. EuroCode front and rear sway bar links
12. EuroCode Alu kreuz billet aluminum drivetrain stabilizer


Front and rear factory seats removed and a kirkey seat put in place with the driver weight at 260lbs. We used MT slicks on all four corners and ran dump tubes. Factory brakes and factory crank pulley were in place, and the car had a 1/4 tank of gas. The vehicle got codes for intake manifold flap stuck shut during the first pass effecting our time and trap. We will correct this and when time allows return to break our own record again.

Nobody remembers the guy who finished second but the guy who finished second. - Bobby Unser




BIG THANK YOU TO APR AND MAGNUSON FOR THEIR CONTINUED SUPPORT!!


Happy Holidays Everyone!!!

Congrats guys !

Very Impressive...

[S4 00 2.7]

congrats to you guys!

[jran76]

First off, thanks for the post, and congratulations on the time and record.

What do you mean by ran dump tubes? No exhaust at all? Exhaust system was installed, but the exhaust was dumped before the catback? Any idea on how much weight was removed on the interior, exhaust, etc.? Also, last question, is this the standard tune provided by APR right now?

Sorry for the questions, but obviously this has been a hot topic of debate. Not wholly blaming you guys here, but I don't understand why we can't get a time from a car with a "normal" setup instead of the hail marry pass. I'd be happy if you just ran the normal exhaust, interior, and wheels to be inline with pretty much every other time on the current list.

While it's awesome that you broke the record, and did what you did, it does absolutely nothing to tell us what the kit is really capable of in normal street trim (I've seen stage 2+ cars do 123 mph, so....). I get that it's not your responsibility to do this, but it would go a long way to appeasing everyone (especially based on past criticism of the kit) if this was done before we see these types of hail marry passes.

Again, kudos for the time you put down, this post, and the work you have done on this platform. As someone that would like to see this kit become a viable option, I still don't feel like we are a whole lot closer to really knowing what the kit can do.

1. Congrats!
2. Stock wheels?
3. Have fun weathering the shitstorm this will ignite.

+1. I didn't want to immediately rain on their parade as running tens in an Audi S4 is a cool accomplishment and no one else has done better.

BUUUUUT. What does this really prove, practically speaking? No seats, no exhaust, slicks, not to mention an additional $2,400 header setup on top of the cost of stage 3? No one is going to drive their car like that.

plus internals? or was that not included in this run?

[raudiace4]

Ahh now you too can run 10s in the 1/4 with a plethora of supporting mods($$$) no passenger seat, rear seat, spare, plus race slicks and with only 1/4 tank of race gas! Only $9k!! (Supporting necessary mods not included)

I'm definitely not trying to be a jerk, and I do think it's a cool accomplishment. I can also understand that there is something to be said for doing something first. I have no problem with seeing a hail marry pass and record, but it would have been even better to see what it could do in something closer to every other car on the 1/4-mile list FIRST.

It sucks that the only 1/4-mile passes we've seen have been completely unrepresentative of how the kit would be run any other time. Outside of the APR hail marry pass the first time, and Eurocode now, all we really know is some of the Cali guys are saying they've seen a stage 3 car walk a stage 2 car and Auditude's (really fast) stage 2 car absolutely destroying Richi's stage 3 car. And, we're still no closer to having any real idea as to what the kit can do. Just seems like a strange way to market a kit like this outside of a few early adopters that don't care (and maybe a few suckers).

My hope is someone is going to make it to the track soon in something that resembles a S4 that the rest of us drive, and this whole thing is put to bed. It shouldn't take much to do that at this point if the kit is really done and ready for public consumption.

[raudiace4]

How about putting up times of a stage 3 kit on 93 pump, 91 pump, and 100 octane race gas with full weight and street tires with supporting mods?

Is it really that hard to do that when pushing a 9 grand kit to your very limited market?

[jomama229]

We are also the inventors of the Alu Kreuz chassis X brace that makes the front end of these cars much tighter which has been copied by others.

ha, you're kidding right? you create a brace that replaces the stock one, and someone else produces something similar so they copied you. it's not like you invented the wheel there! and then you guys go out and make EXACT copies of that competitor's products as retribution, and completely undercut them in pricing. yeah, you guys are such upstanding folks, ha!

i lived in socal not too long ago and really wanted to give you guys my business, but something just didn't seem right with you folks. every few months, you guys go out and do/say something to confirm my suspicions. good luck in life fellas!

[hotleadsingergu]

So how much, overall, did that list of car mods cost? Doing quick math in my head (with no reference points searched), I was coming up with probably $20k of mods there. Is that accurate?

all factory seats were removed in lieu of using a lightweight seat for driver. you know.. minor details.

This^^

Until that data is provided, I would expect to sell very little of these.

[S4ilicious]

Congrats on breaking 10's quarter mile @Eurocode/APR. However as everyone has been saying. how about putting Real Data from An S4 that is actually liveable and is representative of the car whom us consumers actually bought this car for? a luxurious, quick, 4 door sedan with 5 SEATS. Not a gutted car running slicks with over 15K in extra mods just to break into the 10's on a miraculous pass. Come on guys, if you all think we the S4 owners would actually consider doing these kind of things to our cars you guys are Wrong. If we dared too, we would be driving gutted Civics with Slicks and a Fat turbo. I'm all for the improvement of the B8 generation and I appreciate the effort you guys put into the platform but I believe tuning companies should offer thier products with similar rationales as the potential and future customers.

[pooker]

Thanks for the update Eurocode! Good job!

So was the intake flap completely shut? What do you think caused it? They always seemed pretty flimsy to me, so I wonder how effective they are with the stage 3.

[ptper]

Scraped the FB post:

"Race gas, street tires, full interior, the pulley that comes with the magnusson supercharger kit, stock block and internals, yes dsg with tcu tune."

shit just got real, if true.

@giac_tuning - y'all just gonna let this go? lol, j/k.

I'm never believing FB comments ever again.

[Rez90]

popcorn.

All the hate whenever they try to post exciting info about this new kit when half the people that are complaining will never buy this.

They did not post this trying to sell it, they like to make fast cars, they broke the record with the 3.0t and wanted to share it. That's awesome, I am happy to see the platform progressing.

You are kidding, right?

Stop sympathizing and demand that honest numbers are shown. This car is gutted and on slicks with probably a bunch of special extras a normal stage 3 customer will not get and it's only 1-2 mph faster than a Stage 2+ car. That is honestly pathetic. If the car was full weight and on street tires, there would be no excitement at all....pretty much just embarrassment.

Yeah, its like NASCAR. Look my Ford Fusion has 500hp. Just like yours. BS - include a 'stock' configured car or walk.

No not kidding. I get where everyone is coming from, but I guess I just do not care enough about it, the kit was announced well over 2 years ago I am over it. It has been a clusterfuck from the beginning whats another 2 weeks.

[MrFunk]

Nice hit! That's a fast car... & congrats!
... with daily street config is this a lower 11 second car?

[ptper]

So the DA looks like around -486. APR's run was +4200. Both were gutted and on slicks. Difference comes out to about .2 secs and 3 mph. I would have expected better times relatively speaking given the better da, no?

I'm not defending EC here, but don't accuse the car or being something it's not. Removing some seats does not make a car "gutted".

APRs car was also on a smaller pulley, not sure what to believe in this case though. Does anyone know if Arin still runs the kit on his car? If not, why?

In street trim on pump gas, this car wouldn't have much advantage over a stage 2 car also on pump IMHO...clusterfuck is right schirm

Since there is no true definition of gutted, that is my description...I could have also said stripped down, or gutted seat I guess, but it's all arguing semantics.

If your car was parked in a parking lot and had all of the seats ripped out....9 out of 10 guys walking by would probably describe it as gutted.

[jokingjimmy]

I hate this forum sometimes. I can never get excited, someone is always raining on the parade before i get to do the happy dance. Ignorance is bliss dammit lol.

[mr shickadance]

lol everyone gets so salty about this.

I'm sure when y'all go to the track you make sure your gas tank is full and the spare is included to make sure you have the 'full weight' none of you would ever try and reduce any amount of weight.

lol gtfo, these guys clearly took a factory car and made it into a race car, but they put a full disclosure about it all. They didn;t say "bone stock car runs 10's"

Seriously you would think these guys fucked your mother and sister with the attitude you all are tossing about.


it's fine to want more information about the supercharger, but this isn't the thread for it.

Congrats on the quick time in your race-car, kind of cool to see what can be achieved when you get all the mods in place (which this is)


My only question is can you clarify if anything has been done to the transmission beyond the software tune? (interesting if not only because I thought stage 2 was pushing the torque limit on the DSG) and what about your wheels/brakes? stockers and stock rotors or lightweight setups?

[A4 Centaur]

Great job EuroCode! Your Alu-Kreuz is a great bit of kit as well. Keep up the great work!

I don't agree with all the hate. They went to a race and they had lighter shoes? Big deal.

Removing carpet, seats and other non-essentials is a fact of Drag Racing. Last time I watched the race it looked like a timed Drag Race. Since they didn't have any aftermarket CF hoods or trunk or fenders like some Dragsters, maybe a little weight reduction is perfectly ok?

Let's just call it a Stage 4 and enjoy their accomplishment. Maybe, they can bring this car to a road course and try this:

David,

Congrats to you and Eurocode for entering the 10 second family! I was confident we'd see it sooner or later. Keep up the good work and thank you for the detailed post.

Common sense should indicate that removing a couple seats doesn't even come close to "gutting" a car. Removing door panels, carpet, center console, headliner, stereo, HVAC and all unnecessary electronics in addition to the seats is "gutting". But yes, you can always claim semantics.

My point is people are acting like this is a race car. They took seats out and put slicks on it. Average Joe's do that every weekend at the drag strip to their daily drivers. Doesn't make it a "gutted" race car.

9 out of 10 guys that drag race cars regularly would probably not describe it as gutted.

[raudiace4]

No not kidding. I get where everyone is coming from, but I guess I just do not care enough about it, the kit was announced well over 2 years ago I am over it. It has been a clusterfuck from the beginning whats another 2 weeks.

HUH? They are launching the kit. IT's ON SALE. With none of the information everyone is asking for, the crucial information like what this platform will run resembling a factory like street car. You know, like the ones we all drive...

That's their fault for their business strategy. People keep asking and complaining and they still are not delivering. All I am saying is obviously it's not changing their launch techniques everyone has already complained about everything possible. So only thing to do at this point is let it ride. If you think the information you need is not there yet then wait to buy it. Or don't at all. Just stating my opinion not trying to argue.

I think this thread was more about their race car beating the records. Good for them.
