Default Three After market Improvements -What Would You Choose?

Curious if you were to install three after market improvements in stages what would they be?

This is presuming a MT S4 with the sports differential.

I think the first for me would be the Alu Kruenz cross brace.

intake/output meaning a CAI and some improved exhaust

Then a chip with a pulley.



Would love to hear from those that have already done mods and now have the hind sight to suggest what is best application of mods. What and how much you spent please.

Was going to wait another year to order my s4, but may pull the trigger sooner as I am sick of BMW dealers and their pp attitudes.

1. APR Tune

2. Alu Kreutz

3. Stop Tech BBK (if you don't want the BBK then I would consider the Exhuast).

Exactly the way I did it already, tune, intake, exhaust, Alu-Kreuz, then Vagcom mods, LED interior lights, Titanium Grill, new fogs, and then a window tint. Would love the flat bottomed steering wheel but can't see spending that much on a steering wheel. I did the Stasis tune which I'm happy with, but if I did it over again I would probably do APR or someone who can tune the ECU to work with a SC pulley and have more flexibility for different octanes. I was taking the "cautious" route by doing it through Audi (or so I thought, but I think the dealer lied to me in effect about the warranty coverage since the head of Audi has said they don't work with Stasis. All in all though I love the car and it is lightning fast and awesome to drive.

On Day 1 I'd do Window Tint, Vag-com, fog lights (either full yellow or Xeon Match).

Then tune, stabilizer, etc etc

1) Winter or AS wheels/tires or performance wheels/tires depending upon what your car came with

2) Tune

3) Alu or Sways...I find it interesting how many people went straight for the Alu.
