Default allroad airbox pics(need help with cutting hole for intake mod)

does this allroad airbox look the same as an s4 airbox? would you drill the big hole(what size) where the two drain holes are? should it help an allroad as much as an s4? was thinking maybe s4 gets fresh air through wheel well liner vents(maybe allroad would need vents too)

Default With more holes you will at best here more intake noise

There are to many things downstrem controling the end product. More air, more fuel = more hp. Sometimes!!

Default it's real easy to pull the airbox and see what's under neath it

The S4 you have to cut up towards the rear of it, due to that is where the most free space is (air coming up in front of fender well etc). The allroad might be a bit different.

Default He's gonna have to custom make, I would start with a set of S4's and cut them

about a foot past the converters and then make the section between them and the rest of the system.

Default Think I am going to be able to get by for a short while w/o

but will have to do something soon. Also looking to do the vent thing you did. Found a set of the wheel well liners but would like to enlist your help sometime this summer to do the cut and paste if that is OK. 8^)
