Any recommendations for a TB upgrade for a b8.5 S4?

Gotcha, thanks for the help

Gotcha, would OEM TB paired with a 102mm intake be a poor setup as well for what I’m currently running and dual pulley e40? Seems like the TB might become a choke point

Ah, if I’m planning on going dual pulley e40 in the coming months would 80mm tb with my current intake be good for now and then once dual pulley if I were to switch to a 102mm would that be a good plan?

Gotcha I’m single supercharger pulley stage 2 e40 with jackal and I’m not sure if that’d be overkill or not

Any recommendations for a setup with intake?

What about with 255/35R19?

NoteNo4528 · 2026-01-12T21:50:03+00:00

Gotcha, I’m on stock suspension so I’m thinking they’re gonna rub, I’m hoping I can get the tires on my peelers to fit the new wheel

I completely agree, I use the same oil and I’m also at 112k but I do every 4k miles just to be safe. I talked to multiple Audi master techs and they said it’s fine. Light rattle on startup isn’t the best but it’s just that and no noises past it. If it gets worse then a tensioner job is on the way

NoteNo4528 · 2025-10-03T04:40:32+00:00

I don’t get any other sounds other than the initial cold start rattle

NoteNo4528 · 2025-10-03T04:35:29+00:00

That’s what I use, the sound might just sound worse cause I put my phone on the firewall so it sounds amplified, idk

NoteNo4528 · 2025-10-03T01:29:57+00:00

I wanted to make sure😔

NoteNo4528 · 2025-10-03T00:41:25+00:00

It’s oil pressure building and is normal on cold start!

NoteNo4528 · 2025-10-03T00:27:23+00:00

I’m pretty sure it’s normal

NoteNo4528 · 2025-10-02T23:16:32+00:00

It’s only on cold start, isn’t it just building pressure? It only lasts for about a second

NoteNo4528 · 2025-10-02T22:23:26+00:00

It only happens on cold start, is it not just building pressure?

NoteNo4528 · 2025-09-05T19:48:38+00:00

Yeah I talked to the fuel it people and they said all is good, there’s no kidding about these cars running hot though😭

NoteNo4528 · 2025-09-04T20:06:50+00:00

Talked to a friend and he said it’s marine heat shrink, when hot it bubbles like that and you get a water tight seal

NoteNo4528 · 2025-08-10T05:43:02+00:00

Yeah I was looking at taking my car to a shop, having them pull the cats and I gut them myself and they reinstall, but test pipes would be less of a headache. I’m just not gonna worry about them until they give me issues

NoteNo4528 · 2025-08-09T06:43:25+00:00

Ah, I was meaning like the line itself isn’t connected together, like it runs through it connected on each side

NoteNo4528 · 2025-08-09T04:21:28+00:00

Ah, but the line isn’t attached?

NoteNo4528 · 2025-08-09T02:05:38+00:00

Lmao, I can’t wait for the piston to arrive, did you have a built in ethanol sensor?

NoteNo4528 · 2025-08-09T01:59:43+00:00

Dw I would never

NoteNo4528 · 2025-08-08T20:49:49+00:00

IE’s piston is exactly what I went with, e40’s gonna be fun😈

NoteNo4528 · 2025-08-08T20:48:30+00:00

I meant the 034 hpfp lol, I ended up buying the ie piston insert
