Installing HUGE Intercoolers on the B5 S4!

Hey everyone,
In today's episode we are finally back to some fun mods. We are taking another step towards preparing this car for some larger turbos. I figure it's best if we do all the preparation we can ahead of pulling the engine, in order to make that as smooth as possible. Today we are upgrading the intercoolers on this car to some much larger twin side mounts from AWE. These are going to make a massive difference on both our stock setup and whatever comes in the future.

Thank you for watching! If you enjoy, consider liking and subscribing for more.

Fun fact: Some of the scenes from today's video were shot through a lens from the early 1950s. I adapted it to my camera and the results were pretty sweet.

So good to see someone still making b5 content on YouTube love the videos and great to see how far the car has come!

I must say, this b5 series is honestly some of the most enjoyable videos and production quality is great man! i know I am late to the vids, but awesome job and keep going!

The S4 has made leaps! Keep it up I love the content Hunter

Thank you. I love finding a new channel with a large library of older vids.

Thanks for another great video mate, I’ve been binging this build since I found your channel. I also have a stage 2 tuned s4 down here in Australia (where these cars are very rare) it’s been so handy having this series as a tool to use… currently am struggling to find a boost leak which is putting the car into a soft limp mode which is quite frustrating as I’m struggling to find the source of it.. this has been giving me a lot of motivation to get on top of it though 👍

the S4 is coming together so fast!! the larger turbos are going to be INSANE! and it’s about that time in the year where we can begin to expect the TT’s wrap journey to begin at anytime now, i’m hyped!

Side mounts are best plus you save your bumper from butchering the hell out of it. There's quite some options for side mount but if you want to go really big Wagner Tuning make some of the biggest SMICs i have ERs very big aswell on my Tial 770s. great video good luck .

Would love to see a follow up video on fitting the carbon fiber shrouds under the bumper.

I’m new to the channel, but do more thumbnails like that, i know nothing about Audis but I clicked because that thumbnail was gold. Nice video as well

[francismiranda]

hello I have a2001 s4 but I have yet started on any projects to it dont really know where to start thanks to your video sir atleast I have all this for guidelines

Just buy new hardware and brackets for the bumper side mounts. They all go bad eventually because we are taking off the bumpers so much on these cars.

[barrybridygham]

I had an 04 s4 and I’m now looking to grab a 01 s4 what have you spent on the upgrades?

[chewbaccasaurusrex]

Where'd you order the intercoolers through ? Haven't really seen them on sale/discount in awhile.

[DustySteelGarage]

Even though I have a 1.8TQ I’m going to go with this kit. Been looking at it for awhile but it’s very pricey. If someone with a 1.8TQ goes front mount then normally the bumper needs to be cut up. The bumper comes off exactly the same as the S4.

[RichieST]

Is it possible you have two a4 fenders on the car? Although the fenders aren’t unique the plastic parts the bumper clips into are unique to the s4 and may make the bumper fitting an issue. I have one a4 fender on mine and the bumper is much harder to get on and off on that side.

[thepeginator]

Genuine question, how old are you and what's the insurance cost like on these? In the UK the chance of someone in their 20s being able to insure not one but two sports cars is slim to none!

[FlannelDad]

Just found you guys because of this video being posted when I so happened to search s4 intercoolers. Droppin a sub 🤘

[stark]

Cool upgrade but a cut off wheel would've been better to use

[ThatBGUY]
