To quote Corkey Bell "the throttle body is one of the most serious airflow restrictions in the turbo charger system".

By combining the RS4 throttle body (RS4 3" id vs 2.75" id S4)and the RS4 bipipe (as measured near intercooler RS4 2.25" id vs APR 1.935" id)with a Blitz ported late style S4 intake I hope to increase flow.

According to a local porsche tuner they achive very good results when doing this type of mod on turbo porsches.

Don't you mean reduced intake temps due to lower pressure losses?

Default Its only one part of the master plan....

Euro intake cams
Aquamist 2d
Cold air intake (silver bullet style)
AWE DP's &amp; Milltek super duals
Of course AMS stage 6 software will pull it all together and make this baby sing!

Before you AMS bashers step up let them finish the software then we will talk!

Default Eric, any ideas on how this would affect part throttle smoothness without

retuning? Know if anyone's just tried it "out of the box" so to speak?

Default Easy now, not bashing AMS. Not gonna run it, but I'm sure your results will be great. I've pretty

much done exactly what your list has(except AMS ;p). Cams still sitting on my benchtop though.

Gonna try the tb without retuning just to see?
