483HP & 420lbfts with APR Stage 2 ECU, TCU, Pulley, Eventuri & Milltek Exhaust on an Audi B8.5 S5

Do you want to know what difference there is between a stock S5, Stage 1, Stage 1 with TCU, Stage 2 with Pulley, intake and exhaust?
This S5 arrived with us with a REVO Stage 1 ECU upgrade and otherwise stock. This customer opted for an upgrade package consisting of APR Stage 2 ECU software, APR TCU Software, APR Supercharger Pulley, Eventuri Carbon Fibre Intake & Milltek Non-Resonated Exhaust with Chrome Tips.
The APR Stage 2 ECU Software optimises the ECU fuelling, ignition and many other maps inside the ECU for use with the APR Supercharger Pulley. The APR Supercharger Pulley has a smaller diameter, allowing the supercharger to complete more revolutions for any given RPM, increasing the boost. The APR TCU software optimises the S-Tronic transmission for faster, smoother shifting and an extended rev range to create a significant increase in peak power.
The Eventuri Carbon Fibre Intake replaces the factory intake and improves air intake flow into the engine and rejects more heat than the factory plastic item. Improving flow through the air intake and keeping the intake air cooler helps to improve power, torque and response as well as improving the engine road massively and allowing you to really hear the supercharger whine.
The Milltek Non-Res exhaust system releases the incredible V6 exhaust note, improving tone and volume significantly whilst the Chrome Silver tips improve the rear-end aesthetic.
🔴 Output Measured = 396HP & 376lbfts
🔵 Max Gains = +91HP & 78lbfts
🔵 Peak Gains = + 87HP & 44lbfts
🔵 Max Output = +483HP & 420lbfts

I love your video. I love how informative it is

[@RegalAutosport]

Thank you Sir!

[@davewilliams7565]

These are good gains, even more so with just a supercharger pulley upgrade. I saw you had replied in the comments about APR advising not to dual pulley on the latest gen CREC engine as the SC has a magneto clutch (identified by the bolted pulley rather than pressed on conical shaft type earlier engine). But a crank pulley swap will take the pulley ratio higher than the SC pulley ratio, plus the standard crank pulleys are known to fail on the rubber so a bit of preventative measures fitting a solid billet crank pulley too. You may get a bit more power with a crank pulley (plenty of sizes to choose from) and avoid the std crank failure.

[@RegalAutosport]

We haven't experimented with that and it's not something we'd like to experiment with on a customers car, we're happy to provide a true bolt-on hardware and software upgrade for a no-hassle upgrade. Maybe sometime in the future we may have the opportunity to but for now, our advice to customers would remain what APR have provided.

Nice work guys, great video. Splashing the cash on the Eventuri, beautiful piece of kit. Shame the car is a bolt on pulley, quite a restriction there. Imo it needs the Audi logo on the front grille and obviously the rear valance needs fitting.

[@RegalAutosport]

Thanks! Yes if it had the push on then we could have done the crank pulley too for even higher gains. The rear valance the customer removed to be refinished but didn’t arrive in time for the exhaust install.

[@first2fight11]

@@RegalAutosport @SolitarySemp This version of the S5 has the Gen 2 3.0T engine, code CREC, which changed the attachement style of the SC pulley amongst other revisions. Why are you not able to run the crank pulley as in combination bolt on style pulley? APR offers a stage 2 dual pulley ECU tune for the CREC engine - been running it on my A6 for almost a year now.

The 4.2 semi-common issue is carbon buildup The 3.0 early models (B8) have potential thermostat failure and the oldee generation dsg gearbox have been known to have mechatronic issues. The B8.5 is the most reliable of this platform as some common weak points have been fixed. Every model of audi s5 is just as reliable as most other cars. Just has a few common failures at higher mileage

[@msaf7262]

Is the exhaust and intake more for aesthetics and sound or are there any power gains from these mods? I've seen b8 s4's running more power without exhaust and intake mods but just a stage two pulley tune

[@RegalAutosport]

It's important to keep in mind that dyno graphs are only a snapshot of a vehicle performance in specific conditions, at a specific health and at a specific point in time. Different dynos, vehicle health, operating conditions etc can impact on the results recorded. A good quality intake and exhaust always make good power on these cars!

Has there been any engine reliability problems after the work. I had a stage 2 upgrade on my b8.5 postponed as the garage had experienced 2 car engine failures back to back after APR stage 2 upgrades

[@RegalAutosport]

Not with our customers, sounds very odd! Perhaps some underlying health issues that went unnoticed which then lead to failures/other problems after the output was increased. We’ve been tuning these cars since they were released and have had 0 issues

which intake is better the eventuri or the APR ultracharger system? im looking to have very similar work done, however i cannot choose between the eventuri which looks amazing or the APR ultracharger which sounds like it improves the performance more?

Ultracharger allows you to run a larger throttle body, which is the big performance differentiator. I believe can run both the APR intake and the Eventuri with the Ultracharger system

Hi I have Audi A3 8P Quattro black edition 2010 S-tronic with stage 1 map and gear box map from Avon tuning, it’s running 251bhp ( before revo stage 2 induction kit and cobra non res exhaust ) I’m thinking of revo’s stage 2 would you recommend revo for the Tsi engines or is there better ones out there?

[@RegalAutosport]

250HP is about right for the smaller turbo 2.0TFSi. You can install an exhaust and intake for more power, but you’re really limited by the size of the turbo. So gains aren’t massive. For your car, we’d custom tune it in-house on our dyno with before and after rolling road graphs to show you the difference.

Is this dual pulley or single pulley?

[@RegalAutosport]

Thanks for the comment, this is the single pulley. APR advised against doing the dual pulley on a bolted setup due to the supercharging having a clutch, apparently if it’s overdriven too much it can fail. Otherwise, this customer would have upgraded it too. We do have an S5 booked in soon for a similar setup + crank pulley too. So we’ll make all the comparisons then again 🙏

Do ppl know that the Eventuri cold air intake & ECS cold air intake for the 4.2L V8 RS5 does not produce any extra HP or performance? I think these cold air intakes are more beneficial for V6 supercharged engines, but for the naturally aspirated V8 it's a $2500 aesthetic upgrade only. Every RS5 V8 owner I've talked to said they produced no gains whatsoever, and one owner said maybe 2-3 more HP. Has to do with the poor seal from the filter & the intake dam which would just ingest hot in air into the motor defeating the purpose of "cold air" intake. Plus, both don't have an air box to suck in air. That's why the German engineers designed it that way.

If it produced some actual HP gains, I'd buy it but it doesn't so 🤷🏻‍♂️ I think the German engineers knew what they were doing intake box-wise. I want to like eventuri & I actually do. They look sick & produce a slightly better growl but $2500 for a strictly aesthetic upgrade is just not worth it. For a show car that sits around? Sure, for that it'd be perfect.

What about the cat deletes that you must do now. What are your plans for that because that's where I'm at now and researching the best options for that since we all know the car will sound terrible after delete

[@RegalAutosport]

The secondary cats have already been removed, leaving the primary ones in place. For most 3.0TFSi drivers this will be ample power, if you want every last horsepower then you'll have to pay the price of the huge volume and tone change that comes with the primary cat delete. It's not something we have done or recommend for customers, as it leave the car without any cats. Of course, we can do it providing the customer understands this.

[@HVACRTECH-83]

@@RegalAutosport but the problem is the cats will fail and possibly plug up and cause engine damage if left in place at this power/ egt level. That is what I as well as everyone else has been told by our shops and on every forum

Also, in the u.s. anyway, we only have the primary cats, no secondary cats, just resonators

It depends really, other tunes run really aggressive ignition maps which reduce the life of the cats in favour of headline horsepower numbers and flames. We’ve done tonnes of these upgrades without issue, perhaps it’s the better quality fuel here too.
