Great video as usual Bud. One thing that you definitely should do is to replace the OEM Carbon fiber interior trims. It makes the interior looks a lot nicer and pretty easy to install. I also have the 034 stage 2 tune on my Audi S5. I think in their video as they explained they ran a special program to maximize the turbo output. The shift points was way earlier than redline. That might get u a tenth or two back.
I do like the carbon fiber trim. I'd get it as long as someone isn't trying to take my head off with the price. I think 034 claims only the tcu tune is different from what's available now.
@@StreetRyde Honestly I can't imagine it to be more than 4 500 bucks for the trim. And I've seen plenty Audi A4/A5s with it. So it shouldn't be that bad.
I have had no issues with my tune so far. My car was also out of warranty when I got tuned. Remember tuning isn't the only reason why you may have to use your warranty. Sometimes cars just fail on their own. If you are concerned about your car failing I would hold off on tuning until your warranty has expired.
Nice! The other things to consider with 034's run was they were running their full TCU tune which isn't available to us yet, and the S5 sportback is something like 200lbs heavier than the S4. They may have been on drag radials too. I'm running stage 1 93 on my S5 coupe and I've wondered what effect weight reduction would have. I'm probably not too far away from you in Delaware, but the closest E85 station is 45 minutes away sadly.
Man, I need to find some road for 1/4 mile runs. I'm really curious how much slower the SQ5 is. Best 0-60 is 3.88. Best 1/8 mile 7.750 @ 90.04. I think I need better tires, what tires are you running?
Thanks for taking your time to do this. We’ve learned from your mistakes for that I thank you.
It's my honor.
god bless you my man! thx for the info

Love the videos! Are you sticking with the auto “S” shift points or short shifting at all?
My runs are all Dynamic S. I will wait for a TCU tune for shorter shift points
really worried about tuning because of warranty issue how sure are you with 034 E85 tunes?

My closest e85 is about the same time as you plus or mins a few minutes. The good news is it's on my way to work.

I'm running Michelin Pilot Sport 4s on the rear and Pilot Sport All Seasons 4 on the front. It's best you have the same set all the way around.
Hey hey hey!!
