APR CPS Parts question

Hi everyone! Finally decided to get the APR supercharger cooling system for the S4. As per my signature I have the 2013 B8.5 Model. Now the questions:

  1. Do I need the ADS auxiliary cooler? I’ve been looking around and I’m confused if the 2013 models and later even need this piece. My shop says I need it but after doing some research it seems that some forums say that it is valid only for the B8 models and not the revised B8.5 with electronic steering.
  2. I’m not installing an RS4 aftermarket grill, actually love the stock sleeper look :wink: . So, with that in mind do you recommend the screen to protect the intercooler.
  3. Do the new units still come with a pump or is it the revised version v2.0 without the pump. APR website seems confusing from what I’ve researched. Old units had pump and supposedly now only the reservoir is needed and pulp doesn’t come with it.
    Did or am I missing something here…?
    I’ve messaged APR but they haven’t gotten back to me yet. I’m sure they will, always do but I feel I’ll get answers here a little faster and they’ll be more accurate, lol. Hope to see some of you’ll at the track this fall and thanks in advance for any and all feedback. Cheers

No clue on #1 sorry…

I’d do the screen, I didn’t but plan to when I swap the blower…

The new version comes with the bigger tank and no pump… I’m keeping the pump and going to add the bigger tank(I think it’s possible may require some custom work) when I swap the blower, along with the protection screen and RS grille…

HHHM, ok sounds good will look into everything twice and thrice…thanks Prime. Do you think airflow will be good without the RS4 grill has been in the back of my mind but don’t want to change the look of add extra expenses on daily driver…

PS. Can’t wait to see what happens with the new blower setup, lol. More money that can be allocated for more fun lol.

Airflow is fine with the stock grille. I added a protection screen attached to the back of my grille, but AMS didn’t think it was completely needed. They use (and I am sure APR is similar) a hemmed fin design that is much stronger and more durable than the fins on the stock unit. The hemmed design essentially folds over the front edge of the fin making it much stronger. Either way, the protection screen can’t hurt, and it will keep your rather expensive radiator looking nice. Just make sure you don’t use something too restrictive as the screen does impede airflow to some degree…

Yeah, I’m with jran, airflow is fine with either grille… I’ll do RS for looks as IMO it’s much nicer… I also have a front plate which I’ll delete, it’s a requirement in OH but I haven’t got stopped in the RS and they’re pretty laxed… The CPS or any of the others is a good mod for sure…

Yeah, blower should be sweet from the sounds of it and what I’m hearing…

You don’t need the aux cooling kit. Only possible exception is if you have the adaptive steering, but even then, I don’t think it has the same heat exchanger. You should be able to look through and see it. It’s an awkward u shaped bar that is quite noticeable.

I put some small dents in my ams kit by accidentally dropping a bolt on it while it was drying from rad paint. You can certainly do a screen, but not sure if is necessary.

I will take the cover off and look because the shop I use said I need it. They also said that the CPS comes with a pump but I’m going to look over the parts and speak to them before anything is installed. I do not want the older V1 version and would prefer the new larger capacity tank. If it comes with pump and larger tank that fits without mods as per Primetimes plan I’ll keep it. We will see what comes of this. Either way can’t wait to gilet this done and taking her tracking as soon as DA’s allow but from what I noticed the Barometric Pressure around here has been steadily moving up and staying about the 30.00 mark, will watch the patterns and get ready accordingly…

I’ve had the kit for over two years and it’s great. For the first few months of ownership you must periodically check the reservervoir and fill it, as the air bubbles work their way out of the system. Make sure your shop has the vacuum pump system that can evacuate as much as possible out of the system. The main issue is that the supercharger is higher in the engine bay than the reservoir, because of the way the hood slopes down. The nice part is since that loop isn’t pressurized, you can check it when it’s hot.

I consistently notice supercharger coolant loop temps are 35 degrees F below the engine loop, after all day track abuse in moderate to high ambient temps. If I’m driving like a real asshole in 105+ weather the loops can get equal in temp. I have the older kit that has the supplementary pump. I don’t have the ADS cooler (6MT P+ model). I’m not sure I would upgrade to the higher capacity tank. I don’t believe I would measure any meaningful delta in loop temperatures, but I might be surprised.

Overall you will notice that your first pull on track makes as much horsepower as your last pull. I’ve even done a dyno run at lunchtime during a track day and it posted great numbers, 365 whp.

Yes the main reason I offered the CPS was the need for consistency all year round and the requirement of keeping the supercharger safe and cool especially after having stage 2 and pulley for over two (2) years now. I wouldn’t want anything to overhear and go BOOM…! That would be a huge bummer. Thanks for the assistance and knowledge that all of you ways provide it is priceless and unbiased compared to other people I have spoken to… Cheers

Just got the news that APR CPS is in installed and ready to go. Don’t know if the ADS auxiliary was used or not. If it was not I’ll be refunded my money for the part and off I go. Will let you know how the car feels when I pick it up tomorrow, should also have pics of the parts and install. We’ll see about that hope they didn’t forget to take them, S hit happens sometimes. Thanks all for the all your feedback and help with the project. Will keep an eye on water levels and make sure system has been burped properly. Also, when I have a chance hopefully in a track day, if I can make it there anytime soon, I’ll get some logs and see what the differences will be using 93 octane fuel ex. Timing, IAT’s, boost dump, knock sensor, timing retard…etc. Cheers

They obviously forgot to take pictures but CPS install looks nice and clean. Haven’t logged yet too busy with work and family matters. Not that you guys don’t know what it does for IAT’s and performance but I’ll try and do some logging as mentioned earlier in the thread. Thanks for all the advice and PS I was told that I needed the ADS piece. Now I need to drive her a couple of hundred miles and check the reservoir level. I it up the other day after the car sat for 5-6 hours and it spewed some coolant (ever so little) because I was careful so i take it the systems pressurized after all. Heard out there on the world wide net and some people said it wasn’t but I beg to differ. Any suggestions on this subject might help with burpeeing the system again,let me know. The ship did use a Vaccum when they installed system to pressurize it. Thanks as always and all of you’ll have a great weekend.

I just add cheap bottled water to it when it’s low. Water has higher thermal capacity of coolant. It doesn’t freeze in my climate and there’s plenty of coolant in the system already to keep me liquid down to about 0F.

Ok, now what’s with the reservoir spewing out coolant even after 5-6 hours… I take it I need to let it cool down longer and maybe drive it around more before I start messing around with it, lol.

Alright, I ran a scan found something’s I didn’t like…one was supercharger pump failure.??? And the others I have no clue… Also posted copy on boro’s thread about the diff not working, anyway. Also have some logs driving around and some soft launches to see what CPS is doing. Seems to be working but can’t understand about pump as I said above.

AND…here are the logs… Can’t make to track yet but figured real world driving would show something…

https://www.dropbox.com/s/vvevl2ophzsfvmn/log-01-031-101-231-481-1311-2231-2251-2271-4691-4741-5971%202.xlsx?dl=0

Having a lot of trouble getting all the air out of the system. Although the guys at the shop pumped the system with a Vaccum at least 3-4 times the other day, when the car is running there’s still air and it’s causing pressure in the cps. Basically, it’s sucking fluid up and down when engine is running. We called APR and supposedly there is only one guy that has the secret guru black magic tricks to get all the air out. Any suggestions from the brain trust on here…?

what if you crack open the supercharger bleed screws? or is this the engine circuit?

We did that also, it helped some. Now the heat exchanger is finally getting warmer which means it’s starting to do its job but prior to this it stayed cold even after thrashing the car a few times in a row. From the looking at the logs before and after the IAT’s were almost identical. No I take it that since the system has been separated it’s not part of the engine circuit any longer.
