FS: Roc-Euro B8 intake

Had this installed for about 2,500 mi and then more or less unexpectedly traded in the S4 when we found a new truck with the specs we wanted on a lot. The gain is around 7-10 HP per John at...

Needed more HP & torque; F250 > S4

With only slight regret, I trade in my S4 tomorrow to help my wife get an F250 XLT diesel supercab long bed. Her Jeep was not a worthy trade-in as it is worth about what is owed which only would...
