This is my first post here, so I figured I start with putting up some pics of my new(er) project. Wanted something with some power right out of the box, so i went with a B6 S4. So far have the K&N and Milltek Exhaust with AWE tune, and RS4 22mm rear sway bar. Have loved it so far, and this winter the following mods are being done: Piggie Pipes Snub Mount Lightweight Pulley Lowering of some kind ![http://i933.photobucket.com/albums/ad175/rdinuzzo/GEDC0514.jpg](http://i933.photobucket.com/albums/ad175/rdinuzzo/GEDC0514.jpg) ![http://i933.photobucket.com/albums/ad175/rdinuzzo/GEDC0508.jpg](http://i933.photobucket.com/albums/ad175/rdinuzzo/GEDC0508.jpg) ![http://i933.photobucket.com/albums/ad175/rdinuzzo/GEDC0506.jpg](http://i933.photobucket.com/albums/ad175/rdinuzzo/GEDC0506.jpg) ![http://i933.photobucket.com/albums/ad175/rdinuzzo/GEDC0510.jpg](http://i933.photobucket.com/albums/ad175/rdinuzzo/GEDC0510.jpg) ![http://i933.photobucket.com/albums/ad175/rdinuzzo/GEDC0511.jpg](http://i933.photobucket.com/albums/ad175/rdinuzzo/GEDC0511.jpg) ![http://i933.photobucket.com/albums/ad175/rdinuzzo/GEDC0512.jpg](http://i933.photobucket.com/albums/ad175/rdinuzzo/GEDC0512.jpg) ---

Nice ride… My officemate here also has an S4 (2004) but it’s the sedan. Complicated car it seems. I assume you did the rear sway to help cure under steer. How much power did you pick up with the intake/exhaust/tune? ---
