APR Presents the World Premiere of the Eaton TVS1740 Supercharger

[clochner]

The way this is going i’ll have a deposit on the next RS4 before a release on this thing.

But it’s been 6 months since the announcement of an upgraded supercharger, and they even hinted before that of a Stage 3. I mean I am quite happy right now with my Stage 2, but I know i’ll be craving more power shortly.

I went with GIAC because i’m convinced i’ll be putting down better times than if I went APR, that is once the DSG issue is dealt with.
When it comes to Stage3, I won’t have a choice but to switch to APR but that all depends on what the Stg3 will cost. If it’s north of $7500 for just the SC, I doubt i’ll go that route.
Also, with no one giving definitive dates on release, for all I know it will be 2014, and by then I will probably be out of this car. Stage2 is plenty for the time being.

LOL - I am confused.

Didn’t Arin say that Late Oct 2012 was the initial planned release?

: )

3 cases of coke Sak was just kidding.

lol can’t believe that worked

For the record I only decided to go GIAC in like February so my wait wasn’t as long as others. ;D

So are you planning on switching to APR then when they release the supercharger? Wondering why you didn’t go with APR at first, given that an upgrade to Stage III will be cheaper than switching from GIAC to APR, not to mention the cost of going with GIAC initially.

I doubt that you’ll have to switch. There will be two or three stage iii kits. Hell there are like 6 available to the b7 rs4 already and you guys are a much bigger market. By a factor of like 25

How are you convinced youll be putting down better times? APR cars have been proven to be faster? Its ok you can get rid of your dead end tune and get a stage 3 when it comes out, who knows maybe APR will hook you up on a conquest stage 3 kit.

He is confident in his tune and he should be. Like for like, the only comparison we have for stage 2 is manual vs manual and GIAC destroyed Apr on both race and pump. We also have seen the GIAC California car run in the 11s with stock cats.

Don’t be such a homer.

Good. Basically, if they don’t take too long on the release and it’s priced to my liking I will go for it. If it’ll cost an arm and a leg well then I might as well wait another year and more on to another platform.

interesting that we’re seeing videos of this before we see the rs5 blower in action… is that a hint at something? ;D

[sakimano]

The hint is that you guys were crying yesterday so Arin felt bad and threw you a bone. p.s. I still haven’t gloated to you directly about catching you with the 2015 timeline joke
