At the heart of the B9/B9.5 Audi S4 lies a formidable single-turbo 3-liter V6 engine, all but ready to be transformed.

034MOTORSPORT PRODUCT HIGHLIGHT
Impressed by how the Audi S4 performed against the RS3 and RS6? If you have an EA839 3.0T powered Audi and are looking for this sort of performance, here are some of the key modifications showcased in this video that can help get you there:
Over a series of drag races, the B9 S4 doesn’t seem to break a sweat, being able to successfully activate launch control and take off in back-to-back runs without any issues with great consistency. After a few drag races against the RS3 and RS6, Carwow managed an impressive 11.4s ¼ mile, which was dead even with the more powerful RS6!

It has been proven time and time again that with Dynamic+ Software, you can achieve consistent and repeatable performance on your B9/B9.5 3.0T vehicle! 034Motorsport ECU and TCU software are designed to perform consistently and safely in all uses. Whether on a road course, drag strip, road trip or simply commuting daily in hot and cold weather, Dynamic+ Tuning maximizes all available safety features in the MG1 ECU to ensure that your car is running its best every time.
Thanks to the 034Motorsport Billet Transmission, Rear Differential, and Subframe Inserts, this B9 S4 consistently launched off the line with zero fuss, allowing the car to put all of the power down against the RS3 and RS6.
From the factory, the transmission mount, rear differential mounts, and subframe mounts are made of soft rubber that contains large voids within them, leaving performance on the table. Our Billet Aluminum Inserts are designed to fill these voids, lock down your drivetrain without compromising comfort, and provide a more responsive and connected driving experience. 034Motorsport Billet inserts would also help with your 0-60 times and 60ft times, which is crucial, especially when drag racing, as it allows the car to maintain its suspension geometry for more effective use of the tires.
034Motorsport ZTF-R01 Wheels are fully forged, designed with ultimate performance in mind. Not only do they transform the look of your B9/B9.5, ZTF-R01 wheels help to reduce unsprung weight due to their lightweight forged design and provide all of the performance attributes needed in a track-focused wheel while also being practical for the street.
Mounted on this B9 S4 are 19×9.3 ET35 034Motorsport ZTF-R01 Forged wheels, finished in Anthracite and wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport 4 265/35/19 rubber. Weighing in at just 20.5 lbs on each corner, the reduced rotational mass on all four wheels allows the car to spring into action quickly to accelerate off the line.
With great power comes great braking capabilities. While the factory brakes get you by for the stock power output, Stage 3 is a whole other level of power, which is why this B9 S4 is equipped with the 034Morsport Dynamic+ Braking Package, which includes lightweight 2-Piece Floating Front and Rear Rotors, as well as our Stainless Steel Braided Brake lines. 034 2-Piece floating rotors feature 72 directionally curved vanes to forcefully flow cool air through the rotor to dissipate heat and are unique to the left and right axle to provide a substantial increase in cooling efficiency over the factory rotor design.
Unlike the stock rubber brake hoses, the included Stainless Steel Braided Line Kit will not bulge or expand with brake pressure, resulting in an improved pedal feel and more consistent braking performance.
These rotors also work well with OEM pads or any performance pad of your choice!
It was an honor to have Carwow and AwesomeGTI showcase our products to the world and show what the B9/B9.5 Audi S4 is truly capable of! This Stage 3+ TTE810 B9 S4 put up one hell of a fight against its bigger RS siblings and proved that with the proper modifications and optimized tuning software, this 4-door family sedan can do it all.Â
