Audi B5 S4 biturbo Stage II AWD 0-80 mph launch (old video - circa 2003)...

[armandonika]

tuned by ? hp?

[ChrisOstberg]

@armandonika - Back in 2003 I had a GIAC X chip. I figure it was 330-350 hp or so.

[SlashsSon101]

did you ever get the numbers for just this tune? i know youre car is like stage 3 now but this tune must have been near 290whp no?

[ChrisOstberg]

@SlashsSon101 - I'd say that's a good guess considering it trapped 105 mph full weight.

[GTSTheJoker]

Usually

Stage 1= Chip

Stage 2= Chip + Exhaust

Stage 2+= Chip + Exhaust + Downpipes nd possible FMIC/SMIC

Stage3=Upgrades Turbos + fueling etc.

What is stage 2?

I just bought a S4 2.7 with Rs exhaustmainfold and chip = stage 0.5?

[bosco21494]

I see you're turning right?

[lrhelmers]

[audis4me1]

sick whip man i got the same one doing evo3 16g turbos on my all custom with eurodyne tunning

[dcbSub]

What's with the turn signal?

[DudeWithaPage]

" Its an A4 i dont know why you would- HOLY SHIT WHERE DID IT GO?!!?!" lol

[sakimano]

you mentioned running 13.1 when stage II...did you ever go to the strip when stage III?

[ChrisOstberg]

@sakimano - Once - broke a halfshaft on the first launch. I moved to Germany a month later.

I'm not that interested in drag racing it, though I'd like to do the Texas Mile.

that bitch is FAST!

[T04E]

Sounds very good!

[ChrisOstberg]

@T04E - Thanks, that exhaust system sounded very nice (and was quiet when driving normally) up to about 350 hp. After I went to larger K16/K04 turbos, the exhaust became restrictive and made a terrible "sandblaster" sound. I then changed to an ASP true dual exhaust which had an awesome tone, but was a bit loud for daily driving. Now I'm running a Borla which is similar sounding to the Neuspeed exhaust in this video.

[T04E]

@ChrisOstberg That's cool man, I just love the sound of those V6s... the best sound on those engines is with 0 backpressure after turbos though.. :)

[GiR2007]

it sounds awesome :]

Is this engine basically the same as the one used in the old Golf VR6, with two turbos attached?

[ChrisOstberg]

@GiR2007 - Thanks! Although it sounds similar to the VR6, it's a totally different engine. The VR6 has a very narrow V angle (15 degrees) whereas the S4 engine is a traditional 90 degree V.
