Not likely to notice.

On a Honda, that can barely generate enough torque to get out of first gear, you might notice. On your S4...I guarantee you won't feel it.

Short of turbos...IC's maybe.

Lower IAT's in the summer will give you a little more power, and you're turbos will thank you for it, since there is less pressure loss across AWE or RS4 IC's.

I would keep the stock crank pulley

Its a dampener and helps with vibrations, you get rid of that and you may end up creating some problems with harmonic noises.

I had purchased a pulley set through ECS A few months back. I knew they were not going to yeild a

a significant gain or maybe not even noticable, But i got them anyways. I figured that other cars for years had been using them and ontop of that ECS is mot stupid and would not make a product that did not work or did not make sense to use. So i decieded to purchase them and figured that even if i did not feel the increase in power i would have to see something on a dyno or it would atleast be there for me to know. Oh yeah the polished one's look purty. Lol
