Booooost.
I think about all the things we could have done, all the miracles we could have achieved, if we were all just a little bit better than it turns out we are.

Re: The Audi thread
adds 4-5 psi of boost without the ecu seeing it. That way it doesn't void the warranty. Seems pretty sketchy to me since I don't see how the ECU can compensate for more air flow

Maybe it's not seeing a boost set point increase, just an airfow increase?

Re: The Audi thread
The ECU will still see the extra airflow through the MAF. But since you didn't reflash the actual ECU, there's no reflash codes or counters logged.
The amount of data these German cars keep in their ECUs makes a typical Mitsubishi look like an abacus.

And I know the ecu doesn't see the increase in pressure since the guy had a boost gauge on it that read off of the ecu. It showed no difference after the power module was hooked up.

Re: The Audi thread
Kinda how mine works. It intercepts the data between the ECU and the sensors and such.

Re: The Audi thread
Everything I can find says the S3 uses a Bosch MED 9.1 ECU, which is the same MAF based system that's in my S5. :d ontknow:

Re: The Audi thread
That's a good question. Looks like the info I found may have ended with the 2013 redesign.

This is the car they're on. A5 Sportback from Russia.


Blue car, blue belts. I think it'd be a neat design accent.

Re: The Audi thread
Colored seatbelts are a factory option on high end Porsches and are also available to Audi via the Exclusive program. It is not rice.

Re: The Audi thread
Well stupid me. I guess I'm still hung up on the idea that rice mods are non-functional and/or detrimental mods that make your car look like something it is not. Like putting Type R badges on a civic or slamming your car so badly that the suspension fails.
I guess I'd better write off the RS5-style mesh grille idea. I wouldn't want to be accused of being a ricer
