Default My S4's transformation to the Dark Side is complete ...........

Stage 3 ECU arrived today for the APR RS4 Fueling set-up for my car. I ran it out to Sal (elite motorsports) and we fired the biatch up! I took it for a little test drive and all I can say is WOW! The difference is night and day. Put your foot down and you get pinned to the seat back. Drive it easy and it feels stock. Purrs like a Kitten. I was so pleased and excited that I could have killed a kitten right then and there, but I didn't think Sal would understand or appreciate it.
Quick boost spike to 21-22 lbs., then settles in and holds 18 lbs. Feels Great!
I left the car with Sal, as he still has to attend to a slight exhaust leak that had started before the initial K04 install. I'll be back in the saddle tomorrow evening.

Mike (LISA / LI-S4) thanks again for your help, guidance, rides to & from Sal's and the loaner mbc.

Welcome to the Stage 3 club! They are a lot more fun this way. Is that an ASP Tru-Dual?

Default Ahh.... The tips looked bigger to me for some reason. Have fun (it's hard not too). Now you need a..

laser jammer to go with the new found acceleration. Triple digits come awefully fast.

Default Which fueling did you go with? I had the K04's .....

Intercoolers and cluch installed three weeks ago, so the cluch was broken in already and once the ecu was dropped in, off I went!

Default APR told me to stay with the oem B5 S4 spark plugs as that is what they tuned and .....

developed their kit with. I'll keep an eye on them and if they don't seem to work out, I'll try the F5PDOR.
