Two more on two different B9's (B-cause I can't stay away...ahh, ahhh?! Alright I'm done) Just to add them whenever ya have time Teknika.

Side note: None of these use true, sit and wait for boost to build launch control either, I engage LC and as the tach is on the upswing to settle in around 3K-3.5K depending on S or RS, I let off the brake and it still engages LC and AMAX shifting, and is good for a 1.7 60' w/o fully loading up the torque converter (if you time it perfectly, which is hard to do) Subtract another tenth from the ET of each of these times w/ a true LC run.

I didn't realize running an 11.4 @ 117mph with a Stage 1 tune and no additional bolt on's for power was slow? Care to troll someone else?

Yeah, with your tyre, wheel and brake setup it's incredibly slow. Genuine question.

Pretty sure the record full weight is quicker with stock wheels and generic tyres. That's 93 times.

I'm not trolling.

Genuine response... the quickest 1/4 mile time I've seen on a Stage 1 car on E85 is 11.44. I ran an 11.49 on E40. Doesn't seem slow to me at all.

You seem to be missing the whole wheel/tyre/brake setup part.. it's worth more than 0.05s, otherwise it wouldn't be worth it at all!

E40 has been proven to be just as performant (if not more) than E85 on stock turbo, hence why the full weight record is on E40.

Perhaps you think I'm missing the point because I'm unaware of these records you speak of. The quickest Stage 1 B9 S4/S5 that I have found by asking others on Facebook as well as looking at the spreadsheet is 11.44 and it was on an E85 tune with the spare tire removed. This full weight E40 car that has the full weight record you mentioned, I'm unfamiliar with and would love to know more about. As for the the E40 tune outperforming the E85 tune, I have already proven that not to be not true and I will be featuring that and proving it to everyone in my coming YouTube videos. I've already proven it makes more power and more torque on E70/E71 on the dyno than the E40 tune did and the times and speeds in the 1/4 mile are coming up.

Wasn't talking in terms of Stage 1 in regards to E40 outperforming E85 - check the leaderboards to see the full weight stock turbo record.

Sucks to be slow though, I guess.

I remember already having this discussion with you on Facebook. We disagree on what makes a Stage 1 car, a stage 1 car. You are the only person I've come across in the VAG community for the past 6 years that considers a car Stage 1, even once you've upgraded your downpipe. Everyone else I have ever spoken to considers that a Stage 2 car, especially considering you have every other bolt on part installed to achieve that time. I guess we'll see where I land with my 1/4 mile times once I have every bolt on part on the car except for a downpipe and see if I'm close to that time.

To be honest, "Stage x" terms in general are kinda silly and only the younger community really sticks to it. It's a marketing term, and true car enthusiasts generally laugh at the stage kids.... that being said.

Yes my car was "FBO" for the time. I had intake,inlet,dp and fmic. However the tune MAP itself was a stage 1 EPL release.

Nobody else other than APR had even really released a tune yet...maybe Uni. EPL didn't release their TCU tune and revisions along with their "FBO" Stage 2 tunes until after I had already moved into the TTE710.

So when I say Stage 1 it was EPL OTS E40 tune from December 2020 which made no adjustments regardless of our mods. Probably about 20whp less than their current revisions and files would be my guess.

If you believe that your bolt on parts made no difference to the performance then we are on completely opposite sides of the spectrum from what we understand about the performance of a modern day tuned turbocharged motor. Feel free to join the conversation that I've started on Facebook to see if my beliefs are in the minority these days.

Feel free to join the conversation that I've started on Facebook to see if my beliefs are in the minority these days.

Actually I said the tune itself made no adjustments, as in it was released as an OTS file that a purely stock car could run...and did not adjust its output for modded cars. The current files now have that same file I used sans revisions as stage 1, a stage 2 file for those with fmic and a FBO stage2+ file for those the have all the options


I could go back and forth on metrics and facts all day but trust from someone that has over 500 B9 launches and studies every possible metric for over 2yrs now for the platform...

The tune itself did 95% of the work. The inlet/intake was mostly sound as well as the DP and the fmic only allowed me to run consistently and back to back.
I ran the car multiple times before and after every mod. Sure some platforms gain massively from a downpipe upgrade....ours did not in fact a stock car gained maybe 30hp but a tuned car only gained about 5 from the dp vs stock. That's to say yes in fact a fully stock B9 will see MUCH better gains overall from the bolt ons than a properly tuned B9. I've literally got hours upon hours of discussion with other well read enthusiasts on this platform let alone countless hours talking directly with the owner of EPL.

With that said, best of luck on your mods and progress I didn't come in to bicker or argue. I'm going to exit the thread...working on some MAJOR things coming down the B9 pipeline

He actually has a valid point. Naturally aspirated cars pick up power from anything you do because it allows more air in or out. A Supercharged car can be similar pending you are able to maintain the same boost level, or compensate the boost to the level it was at before the mods, which gains the power. The turbocharged cars are different animals because it has a targeted load/boost level, and getting air in or out faster doesn't change anything if the components involved weren't a restriction in the first place, or restricting the amount of load/boost the tune is targeting. On the newer "Stage II" flash tunes, the targeted load is much higher, so you may find factory parts restricting the airflow at some point, such as the factory airbox, inlet, downpipe etc. Basically, as East_Coast said, the downpipe, intake etc do much less to aid the car in making more power at lower targeted load (earlier Stage 1) because the turbo isn't working hard enough to exceed their capacity or efficiency. Once you crank that targeted load up, you start seeing the deficiencies in the factory components, and the replacement aids airflow to the turbo.

Guess we'll be able to see if you're right or not when I bolt on every performance part available, step by step, dyno testing and 1/4 mile performance testing every step of the way. With what you guys are saying, I won't notice a difference in power or performance because my Stage 1 tune isn't asking enough of the parts on the car. I'm willing to bet money you're both wrong and I'll try and prove it in my videos to come. If I'm wrong though and it doesn't change anything I'll be the first to admit it.

To test that you would need to replicate the exact environment you tested stage 1 e40 at unless you do a run on the same day swap out DP and run again keeping the DA and stuff similar.

That's the only way I test software & hardware changes on my cars. Same day, same fuel, same conditions, same everything. The only thing that changes is the piece of hardware or software that I install in the video. I've already done it extensively on my YouTube channel with parts for my RS3, my B8 S4, SQ5's and now my B9 S4. Here's an example: https://youtu.be/Tqf8Ib7Rtq4

Guess we'll be able to see if you're right or not when I bolt on every performance part available, step by step, dyno testing and 1/4 mile performance testing every step of the way. With what you guys are saying, I won't notice a difference in power or performance because my Stage 1 tune isn't asking enough of the parts on the car. I'm willing to bet money you're both wrong and I'll try and prove it in my videos to come. If I'm wrong though and it doesn't change anything I'll be the first to admit it.

Just make sure you allow time for the computer to adjust to the mods, or at least datalog your runs to see variances in timing and fuel, since often manufactures show the “gains” of their products based off the dyno run seconds after the install, where as a lean spike or boost spike shows a gain, but 20 min later that gain is gone when the factory ecu adjusts it out.
I’m also not saying you will see zero gains as this isn’t an absolute of either you see huge gains or nothing, and as we both said earlier, he was also using a much earlier stage 1 flash that didn’t take advantage of any mods.

I am very particular about my performance testing. My goal is to always provide as accurate information as I can to the public about the software or hardware I chose to install on my car. I give the car lots of time to properly adapt to the modifications. Multiple dyno runs. Multiple 3rd gear pulls on the street. Throughout this all, I datalog everything and compare the results throughout the testing. If I see spikes or readings that don't look right, then I don't share those results. I only share the results of the car once it has properly adapted to whatever change I have made. I document everything and then share my findings on my YouTube channel. I've been doing this for years and have continued to do this with my B9.

Thank you. I appreciate that. I'm excited to see if my upcoming hardware changes I make to my B9 S4 make any noticeable differences in my dyno results and my 1/4 mile times and speeds.

Hello everyone! The B9 platform and its official leaderboard is really on the move lately. The future is sure to be exciting for us B9 owners! Firstly, thank you everyone for supporting the leaderboard and to everyone who helped make our leaderboard accurate and successful through submissions and insight.

I just wanted to update everyone on some new rules and features to be implemented to the leaderboard. In an effort to deter unnecessary "micro-records" which are often times the result of trivial contributing factors, I will be implementing a 1-tenth gain requirement to update an existing entry, unless a position change occurs. I know everyone is proud of every gain, but there comes a point that we need to put a hard stop. Micro gains are often times very superficial and can be attributed to a multitude of factors. Some unique situations will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

Secondly, thanks to @BrockDM#1763, who has been keeping a record of 100-200 KM/H times, as we will be adding this new metric to our official leaderboard. It is still under construction as we verify the entries thus far, but I'm sure the top end racers will be happy to have this included.

If I have missed any new submissions, please feel free to message me, reply to this post and/or send an email to "[email protected]". Thank you everyone and be safe.
