I would have done the same thing…can you still post r8 video
Nothing big and most who went to waterfest probably saw already… But, Arin posted a pic on vendorzie and FB showing the intake, TB and pigtail… Wonder what size the TB is and hopefully he will share as I would prefer to make my own intake tube but will see… I bet these are similar to the TB I was trying to get from INA enginerring that never materialized? Looks like 20psi + Wonder how much they had to lower timing? Hopefully, the race gas tune is out when they release the blower…
Seems the tb is a holdup
Wow… 20+ psi… I’m going to need to start looking at the ESS S/C’s to be anywhere close to you guys once this thing comes out…
Any plans for your car? What’s the downpipes/catalytic converter setup on the E92?
Is your car a brand new order?
Car is brand new.
The plan is to keep it stock for as long as humanly possible.
Yeah a cat delete/HFC + tune supposedly nets you 40whp and TQ. If I do anything I’d probably go full ESS S/C as they range from $8k - $14k (for the full monty) and seem to offer a decent bang for the buck.
What blower do they use? Is it a V3? or am I thinking of something else
edit: it is. Same as JHM uses on the RS4
Awesome piece of hardware with immense scalability

Yeah, it was pretty plain to see the stock TB wasn’t going to cut it for stage III. For what is worth, it’s already a restriction at 70mm.
Scroll to banter between me and prime

maybe they went with a rs4 throttle body? idk if its a direct fit but at 90 or 92mm(i forget which) that will flow more than enough id guess
Don’t think it is that big… Overseas car most likely… Arin?
Trying different sizes and not sticking to the VW parts bin. Ran an 80 mm setup today up from the factory 68.
Btw, I filmed the gauges from the passenger seat of my car today. I wanted to post but didn’t.
Excuse:
Clutch was slipping a little so Joel shifted slowly and the CEL was on for one of the IAT sensors we rigged up in the bay (no one turns off codes during development unless they are lying). I figured if I posted it, the Internet would explode. Wanna see it anyways? I’ll just leave the link non public so we don’t melt the local Internet router hub.
yeah, post the link. finally going stg2 on my B8.5 first thing in the morning. would like to get a glimpse of future options.
We have a lightweight flywheel and performance clutch solution for you! ;D
Whoa is this the b5 section? We have:
- Slipping clutch
- Bad IAT sensor
- Extra passenger weight
Was there also a boost leak? And is the tune still a base file?
The video would be cool. Even if it sucks, it would be the first proof of a moving/running 1740 car.
Would be interesting to post a link here for two days on an unlisted video, and check the views. We have like 100 active members. If the video has 2500 views by Sunday, you know it’s getting passed around like Richard Simmons at a decorator convention.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Base base file with base tweaks on a base beta alpha cal.
Video uploading.
Do show
B8 RS4 is dual intakes so not likely that big
B7 RS4 is that big. Same exact part that is on the C6 Z06 I believe.

I had to blur the phone call. : )
No idea how to embed youtube here (Tried full link and just unique id with [video] [youtube] [u2b]… what am I missing?)
