Default I went overboard!!

Yesterday I ordered new APR downpipes for my car which I was planning to do....but then.... I kept going. I also got a new Bipipe, a snub mount, and RS4 intercoolers. WHAT DID I DO!?!?! :roll: . So now, my S4 is officially a stage II+ by APR. All I have to do is put it on my car. I got a lot of work ahead of me.

Oh big tip, dont drive the car the entire day before you install everything, it'll be much easier.

Can't wait to see some pics...and hopefully movies of the car in action after all those mods! That's going to be a badass ride.

Oh ya sure thing. Everything seems like its going to go smoothly other then the intercoolers. For that I have to do some trimming to the brackets and the FIAC. Its really nice because they have a step by step direction to do everything. Ill take a lot of pics of the transformation. I called APR up and they said that it should becoming this friday. OH MAN!! I can't wait. A question I have though is that according to APR's dyno, they said that they got about 320hp out of the Stage II but I got a stage II+ which is with the downpipes. How much hp do you think I will have with those added on? They don't tell me. OH! Another thing, when the dynoed their S4 they didn't use the wheels and attached the machine to the axles. Im sure this will add alot more hp to the car by doing this. So I was curious in how much wheel Hp comes out of the 320hp they got?

maybe 325-330hp
I hope to see a step by step process, I've seen the intercoolers on Audi's and they can be difficult, how much bigger are they BTW?

I think you should say "Fuck It" and buy the Stage III BiTurbo Kit with the optional Carbon fiber parts.

I have no idea how to put the turbos on the car...if I did, then id have to consult with my broker..........aka my dad........and get a loan. Id probably go half and half with him and right now, I don't have 3,000 laying around. As for those carbon fibers.......I think it looks like shit. Carbon fiber is great, but....for as much as it is i don' think it would make that big of a difference.
