i find my stock 2011 S4 to be enough 'compressor noisy' from factory
It's nice, gives something of a Mad Max feeling when pushing it hard :-)

Strange thing though, i didn't notice that on the tryout models i testdrove earlier. Maybe Audi changed something again (car was build April 2011).

It could, i have the catalogues of both early and later 2011 models, there is a difference in fuel consumption and Co2 output for the later 6MT models (but only the 6MT, strange...)

I put the APR Carbonio Stage II in my car the other day and love the sound. Between 1,000 - 4,000 rpms you can hear the SC but not enough to take away from the luxury feel of the car. I love the carbon fiber look under the hood as well =)

I know NWS4Guy will hate me but I found the Stratmosphere a little loud for my likings... Its really personally preference... maybe I'm getting old?

Why in the world would I hate you (or anyone) for liking something? I hope I don't come off as a person who has the audacity to think everyone has to see things my way or they are at fault, because that is certainly not how I see the world.

You absolutely don't come off as that type of person. I'm new to this forum (although not new to Audiworld) but I can already tell by your responses that you are all class NWS4Guy :-)
