  • It's been years since I've done an update, not that as ton has changed. Just wanted to film a quick video and share with the world. Hope you all are well. Hopefully I can get some more updates in the near future.
    Skip to 7:13 to bypass my mumbling and get to the "action."

    This is an awesome car as a whole package. Love the oddball nature of the 2.8 with a blower, and it sounds really good from both ends- way better exhaust note than I was anticipating!

      Thank you!! I tend to gravitate toward the oddball things and I wouldn't have it any other way. I appreciate your kind words.

    Im so happy to come across your video.my Audi V6 is kinda lacking some power and this looks like an easy way to go and slap on a supercharger...I got the same set up in a b7 and have been 🤔 thinking what to do... turbocharger or supercharger..you just made it a lot easier now for me...heheh....mmmm twin superchargers???

      You're very welcome man. Sometimes it takes come encouragement. My 200 surely needs an update here (and in real life) as well. I've been consumed with life and the other project cars so the 200 has been just laying low. Still fully operation but has a growing list of to-do's.

      Thank you 🙏! I had a B5 S4 as well, not quite new like yours but I bought it in 2007 with 57k miles on it. Owned it until 2014 and had the engine out at least once a year. lol.

    Why did you build this as opposed to building an S4/ swapping an S4 motor in? I don't know much about the V6s'

      @amdisthebest  3 месяца назад +1

      I kind of answered this question in this video...
      I bought this car, being very unfriendly to tuning as a form or forced self control to prevent me from taking yet another one of my cars off the deep end. That didn't work. Displayed here are the results.

  • @1.8t5spd

    get sport cloth seats. Whats done for tuning? is it standalone or is it tuned with Eurodyne Mystro 7 or something? Is it a PES G2?

    • @amdisthebest
      @amdisthebest  3 месяца назад +1

      Cloth sport seats are definitely sweet but not super common in good shape and for a facelift, four point seat mount chassis.
      Tuning is done on the stock ME7.1 ECU using WinOLS to modify the binary and correct the checksums, Nefmoto is used to flash the ECU and ME7Logger is used to ram log the ECU.
      This is a PES G2 kit at the core but I've tweaked and improved some of its shortcomings.

    • @amdisthebest
      @amdisthebest  3 месяца назад

      I don’t mean to keep shutting your good ideas down, but S4 seats just sit way too high. I owned an S4 for many years and while I love the additional support they provide, I always feel like I’m sitting up too high and no option to drop it any lower. I’ll come up with something. Wish B5 RS4 interiors were reasonably priced and easy to get. Haha.

      Not really, depends on the person tbh. Power to $ ratio is not great

      310awhp/240awtq on a harsh Mustang dyno. Numbers are impressive all things considered. Is it the best way to build a quick B5, no. Was it worth it to me, 110%. It's different and that's why I (and many) love it.
