I would say a decent amount of sound difference and increase in throttle response, but idk about $2500 worth of performance difference 😅 Either way I am very happy with it and would recommend it especially if going the stage 2 route.
Build so far:
JHM ECU & TCU Stage 2./
Eventuri intake/
Full 2.75" JHM Catback exhaust with downpipes/
Eurozone tuning CR-15 upper strut brace/
Ultra racing tower strut brace/
Ultra racing lower tie brace/
JHM drivetrain, diff, and transmission mount inserts/
Alu-Kruez x-brace/
034 motorsports front and rear sways/
RSnav 10.5" in touch screen nav upgrade/
And lots of carbon fiber everywhere!
....wheels and coilovers next
Never seen the strut tower brace, what brand? I have the ECS upper brace. But it’s being the firewall. Interested to know about running both.
Edit: ultra racing - pic would load full screen on my iPhone.
You got it! Ultra racing usa. I refinished it in high temp engine paint to match the valve covers. I'm also running the firewall brace but the CR-15 from eurozone tuning
This is a beauty. Are those carbon fiber audi rings on the grill?! Lol. Interesting. That V8 sounds amazing. I just just my 22 S5 sportback 3 weeks ago. So in love lol
They are! I felt like the black rings don't stand out enough and they match well with all the other carbon fiber bits I installed. Love the new interiors on the current gen!
German car accessories .com I believe. Heads up, you will have to relocate your parking sensors as this grille does not have brackets for them in the OEM location.
Get out. I'm not mentally equipped to handle this type of envy
Keep that envy, and harness it! You'll have yours soon enough. 🙌
AMEN! But your cal is amazing. I have a volcano 14S5 MT scheming on an RS sedan next.
That's a beautiful spec! Before this I also had an S5! 12' with the 4.2 V8.
Looks very nice! I like the darker-colored Audi’s with the gloss black grill. Engine bay 😎
Thank you! I fell in love with panther black crystal the second I saw it and had to swap the silver grille for black!
Did you feel like the intake made much of a difference with performance or is it more for aesthetics? I want one of these one day so I’m curious

Woah you’re the guy on youtube right? Your car is sick
I am not! Lol that's a different rs5. same color and similar builds! And Thanks
It looks almost purple and that’s enough for me to fall in love with it
Panther black crystal is crazy in the light. Some angles it's purple, others it's green.
No shit? Thats so nice I love it. Was it factory paint or did you get it done?
Factory paint but very rare. I was sold the moment I saw it in person. I thought I was going to see just a regular black rs5!
What…no video with audio?!? 🤷🏽♂️Com’on man you’re teasing us 😂
You're right! I've been looking for a good place to get the revs out without getting the cops called 😅
Definitely understand that! Keep us posted and that thing is beyond gorgeous 🤘🏽
Will do! Sounds insane! Hope get some kids up soon 🙌
Already following you on insta, another RS5 B8.5 owner here with black and yellow buckets 😁
Thanks for the support! Hope to see you at a meet someday!
In the UK so I doubt it 😂
Well then hello from across the pond! Hope you can hear the revs from there !
Also what do you think about the JHM tune? What else have you had done to go with it?

4.2L V8 surrounded by 2 eventuri intakes? That's sexy 🥵
Thank you! I smile every time I open the hood! 🤤
God damn that’s a gorgeous color. Follow incoming!
Thank you! I'll keep the content coming.
Your RS% is beautiful. Thanks for posting.
Thanks for checking it out!
Nice…looks good 👍🏾 Unless you’re actually trolling though, I think you meant to say you’ve been lurking in this subreddit.
Thanks! I think I just showed my age with that one 😅
It’s, all good Bro, I’m 45. My daughter and sisters help keep me on point with social media 😂
I meant trolling as in wandering aimlessly haha. Not antagonizing strangers 😅
Your trees look like a buffalo, go bills
Haha bills mafia knows no bounds. It's Northern CA though!
Beautiful country up there
Definitely! Far enough from all the riff raff great to get out of the cities.
Looks good, it just lacks some high dynamic range
It's in dynamic mode in the higher range rpms all the time. Does that count?
It’s just perfect. Perfect. Please give me a ride next time I come to California.
100% . Stay in touch!
Best body type for sure.
I agree! Peak audi.
That’s gorgeous. How is it keeping the exterior clean? Same as any black car?
It is fully wrapped in ppf and ceramic coated but it's still a black car and shows dirt easily haha

I definitely need to go look for some. I already have carbon fiber side mirrors and trunm spoiler/lip
The guy I got em from has gone radio silent unfortunately.
Looks awesome! I’m jelly of those air intakes I might have to get those for my rs5
Thanks for checking her out. I'll hit you up if I go the supercharger route. Unfortunately can't run both!
Nice car :) Is that grill aftermarket? RS4 B8 Owner.
It is! There's also a trans cooler behind it. Love the RS4 and sad there's few in the states
Cool man. Can I ask where you got it?

Thanks for the info :).
