Hi All,

Had the car for almost a year now. Beautiful find from Dutton Garage in Melbourne Australia.

I couldn't resist it after seeing its immaculate condition inside and out, fully optioned, favourite option is the Individual Audio, sounds so great with just some mild EQ tweaks!

Mods so far:
K&N Filter
Top Speed Pro1 Downpipes/X-Pipe with Magnaflow 200 cell primary cats, stock mid resonators and rear box
ST Lowering Springs (by KW) -20mm F / -10mm R
Spacers +12mm F/ +10mm R
DNA Tuning ECU Remap
DEPO LCI Taillights + Recode
Front Carbon GTS style lip, cut back to fill the "gap"
Rear Carbon boot lip
Interior mid/centre console carbon wrap, driver door controls carbon wrap
Piano Black DCT knob

Loving the car, very different to my previous Stage 3 B5 S4. It doesn't push you back in the seat the way a twin turbo V6 does, but the throttle response, DCT gearbox, tight/fast steering, excellent EDC damping, power delivery and general overall package make it a great enjoyable daily driver.

This forum is great!

Thanks. With how low the front is especially when lowered, most of the front lips made clearing steep driveways impossible!

But I wanted to fill the gap so decided to cut the lip back, a good overall compromise ha.

How do you install this?

It has double sided tape preapplied. Just stick it on ha.

Great car, love the old one too, the B5's were my favorite varient, I feel like they got bloated and lost there way with the S4s after that.

Groovetek,
Beautiful car and it has a twin in upstate NY

I am particularly interested in your exhaust set up with the high flow/sport primary cat. Do you have any sound clips? Is the sound raspier or simply deeper? I have the MPE and I’m looking into the Fabspeed sport primary cat.
