Such an awesome time. Wish the supercharger was a little cheaper but I don’t blame you for charging what you charge bc the Audi market demands it.
What do you have in mind for the clutch?
Really great stuff, good to see you hitting the strip. And thanks for bumping this up, always good to see the V8’s killing it 
I would consider it if APR had a step up kit price from the 1320 or special discount for previous 1320 customers
I still love the power from the 1320, but I think i have become a bit desensitized to it…looking for more already ;D
Impressive results. Even more impressive are the results between the old and new kits.
Jump ship to a jhm kit? The price of the kit is less than any discount you would get for the 1740 anyways
Do we have any information on the jhm kits yet? I’ve been interested in seeing their offerings and price per performance improvement.
Based on previous form, I would bet a Coke Zero that a stg1 kit would cost about $8k and get you into the low 12’s and a stg2 kit would cost $12k and get you into the mid 11’s. There’s a thread in the S5 section somewhere.
You’d probably make a reasonable amount of money selling the 1320 kit.
^^
Solid advice. The JHM stage 1 kit on the S4 has posted equal or better times than the apr 1320 kit did with the RS4
JHM Stg1 B6 S4: 11.96@116 (with baby seat)
APR RS4 1320: 11.83@116 (no back seat at all)
APR S5 (4.2 V8) 1320: 11.92@117 (full interior AFAIK)
And for teh lulz, PES M90 RS4: 12.65@110
^^ Did the PES car have a baby seat as well?
Better, even as restricted as they are with the massive pulley.
And stage 1 JHM 4.2 fsi have seen 2 11.6 @ 118-120
Something other than an rs4 ran 11.6???
RS4 is an FSI engine.
“Fuel stratified injection” or direct injection as commonly termed.
No I think he meant 2 different JHM stage 1 RS4s have went 11.6…Probably JHMs car and Marcus
I think he knows that, but some how the discussion transformed from the S5 to RS4 for comparison.
The RS isn’t the only FSI 4.2l engine.
Well thank goodness I included a smiley face. I’m used to dumbing down the discussion on other forums. LOL
I picked times off the database.
well the S5 and RS4 engine are brother sister (I will let you decide who is bitch) so comparisons make sense since we don’t have any S5 JHM data yet.
All of the other forced induction kits have translated pretty well from RS4 to S5. JHM being a centrifugal blower may beit the RS4 a bit more thanks to it’s RPMs so we will see. I would be shocked if Jason doesn’t run 11.7 @ 118 with the stage 1 S5 kit on his car when he goes to Sacramento. In fact, I wonder when he is going?
As for bigserve, 1320 kit is nice that it’s intercooled so that can help a bit. The JHM stage 1 kit can probably be had for the exact same money you’d get for selling the 1320. Then you have an upgrade path for another $4,000 to go to 600-650 hp (vs the approximately 525 hp in JHM stage 1) if you decide to go JHM stage two + IC
That would make some sense to me. Going 1320 to 1740 is going to cost $10,000. No matter how you slice it.
S5 is fsi, so I thought maybe a jhm one had run 11.6 and I missed it.
Yea I would also guess it will run a tenth or two faster than the S4.
x2 on the upgrade point. You’ll be faster just switching from apr s1 to jhm s1, and if it’s not enough you can just upgrade the kit.
