Great video! I hope your channel takes off so you can make more s4 b5 video... Good stuff my man! You mentione Brad Watkings, hes a great tuner and is also on the tube, someone a bit more low key but just as good if not better is my man Blake Beadle. With either one you cant go wrong, Brad is awesome if you want pops n bangs, he really knows how to make your car shoot flames 😝

[@jasonsantiago5157]

I'm running stock 255k mile ko3's on my b5 that's been stage 2 for the past 8 years 100k miles. 3500 mile oil changes, and proper engine heating and cooling cycles. I keep saying I'm going to swap them when they blow but they just don't 😂

[@CIPGAS]

Hahaha love this! It’s awesome hearing how some can push the KO3’s hard for that long, and like you said good maintenance and driving habits are key.

[@patrickfeliciano4838]

What tune did u go with? Hearing so many different things about different tunes

[@jasonsantiago5157]

@Patrick Feliciano it was an epic tuning group tune from florida. They have since went out of business, unfortunately. The website now links to solo motor sports. They may be able to tune.

[@jasonsantiago5157]

Finally blew up my K03s and am now upgrading hence why i am back here again. Thought it was good to come full circle.

[@Only1Canoly]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again haha, you’ve got so much potential dude! You made a full breakdown with a PowerPoint on a 2.7t platform lol. This is seriously impressive stuff in this video and super helpful, keep it up brother!

[@CIPGAS]

Thanks !!! Really appreciate the support!

[@harp_attack]

Great breakdown of the 2.7t platform. It took me years (and I'm sure you as well) to gather all of this knowledge and it's great that people just getting into this platform have a place to get it all in under a half hour.

[@CIPGAS]

Thanks! Just doing my part to try an build a great community and culture around these cars

[@CamGchannel]

Thanks for making this video. Great job delivering this information. It was nice to have all this information presented in a way that makes me understand all this with these S4's. One is for sale down the street from me and he did a stage 3. He quickly threw out all these terms and names of what he did. I watch your video and now I understand. He did a text book stage three with the K24 RS6 Turbos.

[@ryancoffman7669]

Happy to be at Audi school today

[@CIPGAS]

😂🤣👌

[@FlannelDad]

I just picked up my first B5 S4 after watching your videos and malakas videos. Thank you guys for pushing me to finally just say screw it and grab one. Been 3 days since picking it up and the smiles per mile are worth it. Thank you so much man

[@CIPGAS]

That’s awesome!! Congrats on the car and best of luck with it going forwards!

[@ProjectCarTV]

Nice

[@CIPGAS]

Thanks!

[@joshuaspicer7676]

Dude, the quality of your videos just gets better and better man. Great job!

[@CIPGAS]

Glad to hear it! Thanks!

[@GermanEliteTuning]

Great video my dude. Thank you for the shoutout. It’s been awesome tuning your S4.

[@CIPGAS]

Thanks bro! And thank you for all the help on the build.

[@dontbekurt]

I just won a B5 S4, and this has been the best thing I've seen so explaining the options etc here.

[@tech-garage1527]

My low mileage b7 S4 is starting to develop chain rattle, knew it would happen eventually and always had 2.7 swap in the back of my mind, but now I'm starting the research and part gathering phase, thanks for the videos and knowledge!

I like this guy he says we alot

Great video brother 🤙😎💨

[@CIPGAS]

Thanks!

[@dinsdalepiranha2333]

Thanks for the great video. I was inspired by this video 2 years ago when my Allroad was a bone stock automatic. Now it's a K04 6speed 410awhp/430awtq monster with all the goodies. Thanks again . Your work is greatly appreciated

[@CIPGAS]

That is awesome! Happy to have helped!

[@monica93304]

Full stage 3, KO4's, custom GIAC, larger intercoolers. Alcons on the front. I over heated it with 220K. I have a 90K A6 engine with bent vavles waiting. I'll clean it up. New valves, timing belt/wp service. Turbos are still fresh. I have and CM FX450 clutch. I love this channel.

[@CIPGAS]

Damn! Hopefully you can get it on the road soon. Sounds like a fun build Thanks!

[@akazi1582]

howd it overheat, debating if i should build motor or not/ just do k24 turbos

[@projectv12bmw66]

Awesome content!

[@CIPGAS]

Thanks!

[@yankumarrah]

For those interested in venturing into tuning this platform there is a forum for self taught and implemented tuning. Nefmoto is a great resource. I learned how to tune my A4 1.8T running Bosch ME 7.5.

[@DougsAdventure]

Great resource

What part? I’m from Little Rock

Great job bro....

[@CIPGAS]

Thanks!

[@ehtirammusayev1]

Now i saw where i am at and what else i can do. You did not mention anything about meth kit. That is what i am thinking to have. But in my mind i had some questions now i found answers for them. Thank you man

[@CIPGAS]

Glad you found it helpful. I though of mentioning meth but that would have made the video 10 minutes longer hahaha

[@ehtirammusayev1]

@@CIPGAS if that was 10 minutes longer still i would watch it man. I like your videos and watching them till the end. Thanks a lot

[@ecmfreestyle]

I’d like to help chime in on a few things! From stage 1-2! Stage 1 is a simple software flash! Upgrading DVs will benefit also! 710n’s are great low price DVs that can handle 20psi+ I believe! With stage 2 it’s recommended you upgrade your down pipes and exhaust! The stock cats are SUPER restrictive and rob about 40+ HP...you can gut your stock cats or purchase aftermarket! “BEL” engines have a different flange for the turbo flange be sure to get the correct set when purchasing also “TIP” cars need different DP’s because of the trans mounts! +1 for Brad @ GET tuning and Blake Beadle as well! I’m sure there’s more I forgot but for your basic knowledge this video hits all the points! I encourage those to also read the B5 S4 wiki tuning page along with Nefmoto tuning site for more info 👍🏾

[@CIPGAS]

Thanks for the input 💪

[@chrismullen1878]

Blake tuned my B5 after I got the monster SEP Ypipe...Dude is super legit, car runs like a dream!

[@snaggletoof1927]

Fantastic video. Lots of new S4 owners will be glad to have this information handy.

[@CIPGAS]

Hope so!

[@shongrinnell]

Forgot to mention I also have the 2.8 heads ported 2.7 intake manifold ported to match 2.8 valves intake and exhaust they r all the same turbos ported to match the down pipes xs power catback dual exhaust custom 3.5 to 2.5" y pipe stock inter coolers for now 450 walbro pump I'll post a video soon of my build explaining all I've did and a walk around I get alot of comments about it.. just like to have fun I enjoy watching others it inspire me to do what I do..

[@CIPGAS]

Drop me the link of the video when it’s up.

[@shrtsquanto]

I enjoy your videos, very informative and easy to follow. Just upgraded the clutch and upgraded the transmission because the clutch finally needed to be replaced after 175k miles. Upgrading suspension and replacing u/l control arms in the coming weeks. I am hoping to eventually make it to stage 3. haha.

[@CIPGAS]

Great to hear! What’s the plan for stage 3?

[@cosmicbuttersjr6415]

Awesome video! Just grabbed a c5 wagon !! This helps alot

[@CIPGAS]

Glad it helped!

[@rinaldsabols6921]

Thanks. I’ll start with stage 2 and then let’s see maybe some day to stage 3 👌

[@CIPGAS]

Stage 2 is a lot of fun man! It’s fun, get instant boost and saves you a ton of $$ on an engine pull

[@anthonybiel8488]

I gotta mod my 2.7 eventually

Fantastic video my dude keep it up. Not to plug my self but I offer a fantastic option for those who don't wanna buy a rs4 intake or need a larger volume intake, And it's a diy solution.

Checked out the video and it looks great man! Would love to try it.

My car lives at 8150 ft. altitude. Intake air is always cool yet never enough of it. Two weeks away from summer tires. keep up the fantastic content, lets see some paint.

[@CIPGAS]

Jeez that’s high! Paint coming soon haha.

[@shongrinnell]

I agree.. my budget isn't like most I have ebay turbos I have had for 5 yeas now stage 3 tune pushing 475 wheel hp on 20x8.5" wheel its a s4 b5 hybrid 98 audi a4 Quattro 5 speed manual transmission 2.7t.. 92 octane with 2 ecu's 1 for E85 and 1 tuned for 93.. turbos set at 7psi 20 pounds of boost for now.

Thanks

[@garydean5784]

Hey man I just came across this video And actually learned some stuff. I say I learned Because I half ass had an idea of what I knew but you explained it in such great detail That I fully understand it now and I appreciate that keep up the good work And thank you. BTWI never subscribe to anybody or anything on KZbin but I definitely subscribe to your channel lol.. Hopefully I'll have my B5S4 fully built From bottom to top within the next year or 2

[@igorfedossov5509]

Great video! Keep doing more videos like that 👍

Thanks! Will do!

I’ve been looking forward to your uploads!!! I wanted to know how you took off your sideskirts. Hoping I don’t have rust :// cheers 🥂

[@wgmyung3572]

His rust area was on his doorcards it’s held on by adhesive

[@CIPGAS]

Thanks! They are held on by one screw near the fender and 3 at the bottom of the bar near the center, the rest is held on by velcro.

[@martso9288]

i have a '91 C4 100 quattro with a 12v 2.8. I want to swap in a 2.7bi into it. Is it really hard to do so? My car is euro-spec.

[@teilyrmagnum5524]

Wondering is the b5 s4 2.7tt same engine as allroad c5 2.7tt?

[@TheNutshaq]

Gonna go buy an Allroad and build a badass sleeper

[@CIPGAS]

Yeah they are aweosme!

[@blackowlgarage6731]

Why is it with more flow you sacrifice low end torque? It seems like an intake manifold and heads that flow better will give you more power throughout the whole RPM range.

[@mindaugasgasgasjanavicius5938]

Mmmm. What about a6 aza code engine, it have 230hp, 6speed manual. Same options to tune?

[@AllBADDD]

What is needed to run e85 on this platform, just picked up my first b5 s4 like 2 weeks ago and it has BW K04’s, o34 85”mm maf, Bosch ev14 550cc, And it has a project b5 450/85 fuel pump, is there anything else I need to change? so the car has all this but to my understanding it’s on a stage 1 map and it’s running really rich I was looking into getting it tuned soon but would it even be worth it to get it tuned on e85? BTW I don’t drive this car at all in its the current state it’s in. Thank you

[@CIPGAS]

You are pretty set there The lines can handle the e85 and so can your injectors and fuel pump

[@ocavant]

Do the Darintake mod to the air box (cut a hole in the bottom)😂

[@audigw]

Excellent video. I have my original engine on a stand right now, would you have still gone single turbo? Say budget wasn't an issue. It's so tempting for the pros but the little purist in me says otherwise lol

[@CIPGAS]

Definite understand how the purist in you wants to stay twin turbo, and honestly I probably would have still gone single. Not for the power but for the sounds and overall driving experience of the single

[@jangorkawert]

Hi i have a question. Is it even possible to somehow upgrade tiptronic? Or swap transmission i just want to stick with at.

[@dino-vk2cp]

so the oem pistons are good for 500whp

[@CIPGAS]

Just about but many have taken them further

[@dino-vk2cp]

@@CIPGAS ty for the information i was scared to push it ower 430hp

[@chrismullen1878]

Awesome video like always! So when I wanna go stage 3 I'll just order the parts and bring her on up to you? What Ko4's do you suggest, is it worth it to go with BW's or just paying for the name?

[@CIPGAS]

Bring her over, we’ll make it happen. The BW come at a big premium but they are incredibly reliable turbos. If they are within budget I recommend you get them.

[@chrismullen1878]

@@CIPGAS sounds excellent. I'll most likely go with the Borgs. I'm striving for reliability... well, for a B5 haha

[@kingdingaling2854]

Im right at the 550-580 crank and 494whp to be exact and im curious if you know what kind of loss % down low and gains % up top i would get from those 2.8 heads you mentioned

[@ssnandrei3164]

I’m looking to get a b5s4 I won’t do mods for power I’ll do sound looks etc.. but which would be better to get for that the 2.7 or the 4.2?

[@CIPGAS]

Really up to preference then. Wether you like the V8 growl on the punchy boost from the v6

[@florider_hd]

whats the difference between the APB and other types?

[@JoshuaLBatterson]

Hey dude! Have you got some aftermarket sites you’d recommend for parts, twin turbos and etc I’m from Australia so it would help me out a lot.

what 2wd transaxle options can i fit to the 2.7 bi turbo ?

[@t29heavy67]

What is difference in block between the s4 and the 2.7 a6? I know ecu is different also

[@CIPGAS]

Blocks are very similar if not identical. The engine codes BEL in the A6 and Allroads were later revised casting for some and they have slightly stronger blocks coded BF

[@t29heavy67]

Hello, but what is the difference in engines of european audi a4 b5 and USA model? or even what ingeneral is different?

can this be the same recommendations for the A6 C5?

What’s the best water pump timing belt do you think to get ? Also do I need the lock too if I mark 3 lines to the timing cover and cam gears ? I’m a tech but haven’t done a 2.7t without one but I think I would be able to no ?
