AWE/GIAC Mod Recommendations
I'm looking to mod my Audi S4 2012 over the holiday break. Here's what I had in mind:
- AWE B8 V6T S-FLO INTAKE
- AWE B8 S4 QUAD TIP BLACK Cat-back exhaust w/Stock downpipes
- GIAC B8 S4 FLASH
This will run me right around $3K, so I think this is a pretty good mix of things to add about 100HP+ and add some muscle to the exhaust.
Thoughts?

might as well jump right to a stage-2 tune, the pulley isn't much more in cost, and the added low-end torque is much more useful for daily driving than the stage 1's upper end HP.

Stage two will give you more torque but already have more than I need..........

That's definitely on my list of things to do in the future along with the GIAC DSG tune, but I'll take some time to appreciate the stage 1 tune and then the bump will be that much more gratifying.

You can't go wrong with APR or GIAC tune... If you are looking for the best performance I would go with a open air intake as they have proven to be the best via data logging, strip times, and 60-130 times by owners not companies selling intakes... Also, IMO the benefit of DSG tune is still debatable...
