Just out of interest, would there be anything to be gained with different air filters, I would of thought Audi, esp the R8, would have the optimum filters. But if it is a new airbox I get it.

Must admit,I was thinking the same thing,it looks like something else is supposed to be living in that box,but I bet this setup will increase his induction noise. oopsie.gif

Surprisingly, quite a lot actually. As absurd as it sounds, there is a guy who did a back to back dyno with the change... And got a 13hp increase. Sounds crazy I know...
The stock ones are actually pretty crappy.

13hp, I'm surprised, the standard ones must have some uber filtration standard. But those ones do look pretty damn nice.
We tested my BA xr6 at a test and tune, air filter in and out and a K&N, 16 runs, I think inconclusive, same terminal speed, indicating no power difference

They usually claim around 3hp, which you wouldn't observe in the 1/4. I don't believe manufacturer claims on this sort of thing. Intrigued by this user dyno though. The ones on there now have an extra sock looking thing around them that can't help.

Deposit paid on this... fingers crossed. MY08 Alpine white 335i M sport.

Why fingers crossed? You paid the deposit right? It's not going anywhere. How much are they going for these days anyway out of curiosity?

Post #4191

Yeah i know, stranger things have happened is all. Im the kind of guy who wont be settled about it until its done and in my driveway.

Picked it up for 46K Like i said Alpine white, MY08, M Sport, 50K kms on the clock, very happy as its next to impossible to pick an M sport with 50K on the clock for less than 50-53K. Certainly alot of car for the money, only thing im dissapointed in is the black interior, its not exactly awe inspiring inside when they are black leather, really need that beige trim, still awesome regardless.

nice work, bang on the money, good pickup

That is a good price for it, well done.
Not what I's spend my 46k on, but if it's what you want then you did good.

Yeah i had serious help from a personal friend who has sold cars in the industry and managed for various dealerships to get the price that low, so i wasn't without help, he was guiding my hand throughout the negotiations, i felt pretty sorry for the salesman, he had no idea who he was f'king with lol so that certainly helped with price.

Of course, thats a given. Everyone knows when you trade a car you get stuff all compared to what you could get selling privately. All im saying is the price was pushed as far as it could be, and the salesman had a rough week dealing with the various mindfcukery and smoke and mirrors. Im just saying and so are the others that i got it at a very good price point.
