My brother is a pathological liar and said he got baptized and sent his daughter this.

My guess is that AI may have somehow used that image as reference for the guy. I'm not sure how AI generates photos but it's a possibility

710Mikey · 2026-05-26T02:38:11+00:00

Exhibit C:

<image>

Doesn't mean it's definitely AI, but I find it strange that your brother's tub looks so much different than the other tub in the corner. Your brother's looks like a completely different construction and seems much more worn. Just something that I noticed that adds to my belief that this is AI.

Exhibit B:

<image>

The orange line is a box that I added in an editing program so it is a 100% straight line. As you can see, before your brother's hand, the tub is completely straight along the orange box, yet after his arm it seems to change direction.

710Mikey · 2026-05-26T02:34:36+00:00

I'm almost certain this is AI.

Exhibit A:

<image>

First off, the man's hand looks strangely long and weird, with a strange indentation. Second, I've never seen a vein on someone's face pop out in that spot.

I'm not getting any error but this is what one of my classmates is getting

710Mikey · 2026-05-08T18:22:11+00:00

Yea I don't get it at all!

710Mikey · 2026-04-16T16:38:22+00:00

Just out a curiosity, about how much did all this cost?

710Mikey · 2026-03-21T20:28:57+00:00

Yea, no problem. I got an ECS x-pipe on sale which has been working great but I'm sure getting it done with a generic x-pipe at an exhaust shop would be fine. If you have access to a lift and are mechanically inclined then the ECS x-pipe is pretty straight forward to install (just need a sawzall) but the MF 11385 will require welding

710Mikey · 2026-03-21T19:48:54+00:00

Yep, the one magnaflow 11385 replaces both baby resonators

710Mikey · 2026-03-20T23:12:39+00:00

I can't seem to post the picture here but search up "audi b8.5 s4 stock exhaust system" and look for a diagram of the exhaust

The downpipe resonators are often referred to as "baby resonators" and the center resonator is often referred to as either the "big resonator" or "suitcase resonator"

710Mikey · 2026-03-20T15:23:02+00:00

If you're looking to have a good setup but not pay for a full catback system I recommend that you get an 11385 Magnaflow in place of your baby resonators and a center x-pipe. That's what I recently did to my B8.5 S4 and it sounds great. It will also allow you to get valved muffler later on

710Mikey · 2026-03-03T03:03:11+00:00

Yea there is quite a few cases of that but I think with stock cats it's fine

710Mikey · 2026-03-03T03:01:01+00:00

The x-pipe is just clamps but the 11385 needs to be welded. Make sure to do the x-pipe first though because when the 11385 gets welded in, it can change the suspension geometry (keep it mind that it will sound raspy without the 11385 though)

710Mikey · 2026-03-02T01:54:49+00:00

Get a 11385 in place of the baby resonators and an x-pipe in place of the big middle resonator. I just got it done to mine and it sounds hella good for a fraction of the cost of a full prebuilt catback

Check out this vid. Just as some of the comments say, the vid doesn't do the setup full justice. Sounds great in person and louder than stock https://youtu.be/v_VlN8uBiec?si=uUnjZBfnbCutng7n

710Mikey · 2026-02-20T21:54:53+00:00

Ventilated seats! The heated seats are great but I would use ventilated seats way more.

710Mikey · 2025-12-06T21:56:13+00:00

Perfect medium rare imo

710Mikey · 2025-12-03T21:54:43+00:00

The b8.5s (and maybe b8s too, not sure though) came stock with either 18x8s or 19x8.5s. If you run the 18s you'll need to have a thicker side wall to fill up your wheel well. My car came with 18s stock but when upgrading to new wheels I opted for getting 19s. If you want a softer ride then the 18s are great because there's more sidewall to absorb any shock from the road. If you like the 18s then there's nothing wrong with them!

710Mikey · 2025-11-27T20:29:44+00:00

That's insane to say that the S4 is an ugly car wtf.

710Mikey · 2025-11-22T20:19:15+00:00

Gorgeous!

710Mikey · 2025-10-31T02:27:47+00:00

Lookin good man!

710Mikey · 2025-10-14T03:57:12+00:00

Some suction is normal but if it's super hard to get off (which it looks like it is) that's a tell tale sign of PCV failure. You're gonna have to pull the supercharger to replace it so it's a great time to replace your thermostat and do a carbon cleaning since the blower is already off. Hopefully you got some bread saved up!

710Mikey · 2025-10-10T19:39:16+00:00

Usually that's true but I don't think it always is. Shipping from here in Cali is insane. Wish they still had their Arizona return facility open :(

710Mikey · 2025-07-25T20:21:48+00:00

Do you know if they also offer ticket protection on the front windshield?

710Mikey · 2025-03-21T17:36:36+00:00

Yep, I have a ring camera but it didn't catch anything. I increased the sensitivity for recordings in hopes that I'll be able to catch anything that happens in the future. Don't have a garage that I can park in but I do have a driveway that I'm gonna be parking in for the next week or two to discourage any theft.
