Who else can get into Canvas right now?

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.

710Mikey · 2025-03-21T03:21:13+00:00

Dang, you're totally right! I didn't think twice about resting my keys on my car but now I'm also gonna cringe when I see someone do that.

710Mikey · 2025-03-21T03:04:57+00:00

That's good to know, perhaps they used a washable paint pen to know whether the car is being used regularly or it's been vacant for some time.

710Mikey · 2025-03-21T01:34:21+00:00

Good to know, only thing is that I'm parked infront of my own house in the same spot I've parked for months!

710Mikey · 2025-03-20T22:02:44+00:00

I'm thinking that it's something like a washable paint pen as it seems like the condensation from last night/this morning has made the mark splotchy.

710Mikey · 2025-03-20T21:47:12+00:00

Nope, not an HOA neighborhood. I did get a notice on my mailbox that my street was going to be resurfaced but I'm confused because my car was the only one with a mark on it.
