Default AWE S-Flo...worth 200 bucks?

5-7 "estimated" HP...does this thing really do any good, or it just for those people who need to upgrade everything in their car...

Default No! Things upstream of the turbos, do not help...

Stock airbox/filter better than anything you can bolt on ahead of the turbos..

Default Champion runs a comopletely different intake system...

Seprate intake/bank, among other racing bits.

The question was the AWE S-Flo---it does not provide any atvantage over the stock intake on an S4.

If you are converting your car to a race, car, then we can get into all the changes you can make to the intakes, intercoolers, etc.

Default Actually it does...

I've logged it using the VAG. It's not as big a difference as AWE says it is but it's more than the K&N. Plus it has a smoother flow curve.
