Sad to see her go :( Glad to move her friend in though....
The past week I have been living the best of both worlds. I was forced to decide in the mornings which car to take, 98 M3 or the new S4. I have noticed considerable differences in the suspension and steering department. Namely the S4 feels like a bath tub on wheels. But the feel of a turbo is so much more appealing to me. Now it seems that the modification process will focus in on the new 4door.
I was wondering as far as downpipes go, who all makes them? I know of MTM, APR, anyone else? Also, do they offer them seperate? or only in a high flow cat/test pipe combo. Thanks in advance. And yes, I do need the proper software to run it along with exhaust, etc.

BUZZZZ wrong.. depends on the DP's, some come without the fittment for the secondary O2 sensors
but you can get MORE from a re-calibrated chip
that takes advantage of the better flow and spool
and for what these guys charge for the Hardware
*I* WOULD get the SW

Okay, yes the second 02 (but I wouldn't buy it if it didn't have the fitment)..
Yes you are also right that the software will bring more out of the mod, but it's not a "MUST" in order to DP or exhaust!
Also no one has done any dyno work with a car with DP's and exhaust only, to see what the results are (maybe it gives someone enough of a increase).. If not then yes they need a $5.00 eprom with some lines of code for $500-$700 dollars (what a racket!)

There is a dyno number at Max Speed/June - Comes out to 348HP 390ft-lb
if you take the base line at 250/258. No graph though, which is more important to me than max numbers
