    Good choice, I would err on the side and have it flashed to stock before each service, you never know when your SA may decide they aren't going to help you fight the fight, and with a DSG I would be safer than sorry

      Revo is the most aggressive tune available. Stasis was offering a toned down version through the Audi partner network. APR has nothing to do with Revo, in fact they are mortal enemies due to the nature of the birth of Revo (not going into it, look it up)

      Revo is now offering a V2 which is much safer, the initial offering requested an extreme amount of boost and dialed back some of the safeties in order to achieve this (not my opinion, actual fact) logs of the new V2 show it to be much more inline with GIAC and APR, it appears that all safeties are in stock form

        Threw it out there because he wanted a sensible winter car so that he can save up for a house. 2014 S4 is expensive compared to an A3 that does the basic necessities.

        Or used S4 but you already bought a new one. So... What's next later, C63?

            Exact same salesman (Kevin) promised me some after the deal stuff...he has since reneged...typical sales guy ********, so yeah I would flash back to stock and not rely on any promises.

              Fair enough. I will wait until the 8000km service to do any tunes, just to make sure my S4 isn't a dud.

              Intake and exhaust though... Soon... Soon.

                Curious... why the switch from a NA //M car to an S4 and not a RS4/5? S4 is sweet ride for sure... I suppose the power delivery on the S4 is the answer? Looking forward to seeing her in person.

                  Daily driver practicality. I found the M V8 was too high strung, needed to be revved high to get power delivery. In the city this is not very practical. I figure simular would come of the RS5, as it packs a high revving V8. Forced induction makes for a good city driver in my experience.

                    The initial Stasis tune was a detuned APR program (As they were in the practice of simply re-branding everything), Im assuming they ditched that when they partnered with Revo.



                    Good to get this all out there... A B8 S4 is high on my wish list!

                          Go nuts, I honestly like the sound of the car better with stock exhaust and Roc Euro intake. Considering no catback has shown any hp gains, I prefer the true sleeper status

                            You are correct, the initial Stasis tune was reported to be an APR light tune, APR has never officially confirmed this
