He wrote that it would be released for RS5 first (and maybe R8 ) and the B8 after them.
So until it’s released for RS5 everyone should just cool their jets (pun?)
Although didn’t they throw a big TEASE to expect something at H2O in the b8 stage III 33 page tease thread on az? If so I understand the frustration.
This is an interesting theory. Sounds like a crock put out by a jfonz agent lol.
[quote=CornedOutAPB]Allegedly the blower they opted for is not as ideal a match for the S4’s 3.0 TFSI as they had originally planned. Supposedly Arin’s personal S4 had subpar dyno results despite months of tuning and tweaking. This same blower however is a great match for the 4.2L V8s. This is why APR has already started putting them into production for their supercharged V8 kits.
[/quote]
It’s even funnier with the ones that don’t even own an S4 or an Audi with the 3.0 motor complaining, not to mention the 98% of the whiners who won’t buy the blower in the first place…
I should have some fun and post a picture in that thread of my APR CPS box with just a note of “Look what just arrived, track times this weekend”… Poor Arin would get a flood of emails/calls/complaints/posts/twits/facebooks/blah/blah/etc.
One has to wonder…why is Marc on Audizine trolling APR and propping up Jfonz ?
Also, who is Jfonz and who is Jfonz connected to? Some background:
itguy = that knob from Vegas who sells cheap Chinese knock off parts. His company is Silly Rabbit Motorsports, and for some reason, Anthony allows him to market his crap on audizine without paying to be an advertiser. Very strange. Does he have photos of Anthony Marino? I mean, better than the ones we have of him? This is the guy who posted the gay porn gif golden shower selfie over there without as much as a slap on the wrist.
jfonz = Joshua Alfonso, from New Jersey, the tuner who was rumoured to be stealing other company files for the B5 and who admitted to going on n e f homo and lifting code from there (which was developed primarily by other guys stealing lol) to sell to B5 kids on Audizine. He was miraculously accepted as an OFFICIAL audizine advertiser (WTF…we MUST see these pictures) and then was terminated after 1 year. After he MIRACULOUSLY got the ability to tune a B8 S4 (hmmmm) he started undercutting existing tuners and selling his shit on AZ via ‘customers’ who would post glowing reviews. This included itguy (ironically) and then our friend CornedOutAPB…
itguy and jfonz appear to be partnering up somehow with ‘EPIC TUNING GROUP’ from the looks of it, and will develope hardware and software solutions for broke ass b5 kids and B8 S4 owners with poor judgement.
CornedOutAPB =It is Marc, aka 10secS4 aka BigBlueBeast aka BBB aka cueship. He used to be a ‘tuner’ in the b5 section. I use that term loosely. He would basically tweak other companies files and sell them on audizine. He was eventually banned for all kinds of shadiness, and then he moved on to other platforms. Had some flash cars like a Viper, a Gallardo, a GTR and a 997 Turbo. Why is he on audizine, trying to prop up Jfonz, and trying to shit on APR? He hasn’t had an Audi for ages. Does he have something at stake here???
To summarize:
[b]Marc/BBB/10secS4/Corned/cueship/MikeyGTR is from Jersey, was a self annointed ‘tuner’, allegadly stole files, and used the quarter mile to generate excitement about his products. He LEFT the scene, unceremoniously a couple of years ago.
Josh/Jfonz is from Jersey, was a self annointed ‘tuner’, allegadly stole files, and used the quarter mile to generate excitement about his products. He ARRIVED on the scene, quietly, a couple of years ago.

I dont know what the hell is going on with that ITguy.
There is one important thing about that dillweed that all of you guys missed. a couple of days ago he was calling out cornedoutAPB saying Jfonz doesnt have a B8.5 tune yet but will soon. But a couple of days before that he mentioned that Jfonz is no longer a tuner and does not tune Audi’s anymore HMMMMM??!?!?!
Those are compelling and confusing questions Arin. The website makes no sense at teh best of times, let alone when a trigger happy moderator steps in with their pink infraction ray-gun.
He was trying to distance himself from Marc because it was clear a few months ago that Marc crossed a line posting a fake quarter mile time that the B8 guys jumped all over.
Also, he was right because JFONZ the company is no longer a tuning company because the company has been shut down. They (Joshua Alfonso) are now operating under a new label. Epic Fail Tuning Group. I mean Epic Tuning Group.
p.s. this is always reassuring…when your company’s ‘contact us’ page is a fucking email address. No phone (not a real business), no address (not a real business). Just an email in cyberspace. All of these mom’s-basement fly by night operations are the same. A fucking ghost you would be FOOLISH to give your money to. There is no credibility, there is no accountability.
There is two Seans associated with ETG. One is Sean Cyr (itguy) which is SRM and the other is with Supreme Technology Engineering or STE who is AZ member- Don Supreme.
“Sean, is a Software Engineer with over a decade of experience. Sean first developed an interest in computers at the age of 8, after watching an episode of Star Trek. With virtually no guidance and before access to WWW, he taught himself programming by age 12. He later formalized this knowledge in college and holds a B.S. In Computer Science. Sean displays an obsessive interest in cars, particularly in the pursuit of horsepower and unbridled acceleration. This obsession lead him to form friendships with others of similar interest, and while not gifted in the areas of fabrication and mechanics, his background in software development and reverse engineering made the transition into ECU tuning a natural extension. Sean is also the creator of the Performance Parameters Display, an embedded computer system that integrates with a car’s instrument cluster, ECU, and various sensor systems for monitoring engine running conditions.”
Don Supreme appears to be the one that ETG is using for their B7 A4 2.0T tuning development . Since he was a B5 guy and now he has an A4 2.0T. Also, more than likely he will be the one to run/test Franken Turbos 2.0T k04, since ETG will be the one tuning it for them. Purely speculation though.
[quote=MikeyGTR]I’m selling an OEM 2013 GTR intake manifold. This is a mint condition low mileage piece that comes with both upper and lower intakes and all three gaskets. For those who don’t know, the intake manifold was one of the parts Nissan changed for the 2013 model year which accounts for the 15 horsepower bump from 2012 (530 to 545 HP). This is a great low cost mod for those looking to squeeze every HP they can out of their stock turbo GT-Rs. It’s also an improvement if you have banged up
I’m asking $325 + shipping/Paypal fees. Local pickup is available in NY/NJ/CT area. Please PM me or text 203-514-2258 with any questions. Thanks.

Now here’s that phone number and a new username and an email address under Marc’s viper account
[quote=cueship]New Viper Classified: FS: Mopar Performance Computer for Gen IV VipersDescription: Hello,
I’m selling a Mopar Performance computer part #P5155254AB that fits all Generation IV Vipers (2008-2010). This upgraded engine controller adds 10-15 HP at the wheels on a stock Viper by tweaking the fuel and spark tables; it can also be used on a modified Viper with bolt-on modifications such as intake, exhaust, headers, etc. This calibration automatically detects the additional air flow from those modifications and adjusts the fuel and spark accordingly up to 700 HP. The 1-4 skip shift feature has been eliminated and the rev limiter has also been increased. Lastly, you will not receive any warning lights or limp mode should you remove the cats or O2 sensors from your modified Viper.
I’m asking $850 + shipping/Paypal fees. Local pickup is available in the NY/NJ/CT area. Please PM me, e-mail neonacr79@verizon.net or text/call 203-514-2258 with any questions. Thanks for looking.

[quote=brian b]I also paypaled this guy then was promptly blown off. No tracking # or any other communication. I filed a claim with paypal and got my money back a few weeks later. Sorry I didn’t post something about this guy sooner but I don’t get on here that much. I feel bad, as maybe I could have prevented you from going through the same bullsh!t I went through. Again Sorry!!!
