Your B6 A4 has served you well and faithfully, year in, year out. Why not deck it out in a set of Euro-look headlights from Valeo and see it in a new light. These jewel-like Euro-style assemblies will fit your stock front end without cutting and drilling, and their electrical connectors accept your stock harness plugs without a fuss. You won't even have to buy bulbs if you don't want to. Just swap your old halogen bulbs over for a clean, amber-free, projector style look that's sure to add fresh excitement to an old relationship.

Get in touch with your bad self. You know how to drive a stick, so why not stick a fork in that marshmallow self-adjusting pressure plate. Why not go with a conventional disc, mated to a single mass flywheel. Our Valeo single mass flywheel clutch conversion kit takes your Audi back to its roots as a bare-knuckled brawler. The non-adjustable pressure plate puts you in touch with the clutch, restoring a crisp, responsive feel. The single mass flywheel costs less than a dual mass, and can be resurfaced in the future to extend its service life. You'll feel the difference.

Because of the location of the power window switches in most vehicles, they can be extremely vulnerable to damage. Opening your door to get out in heavy rains or a window left down at an inconvenient time can water log these delicate switches and ruin internal electronics. Replace yours to restore function and make your windows operational again.

Experienced enthusiasts have learned over time the secrets to achieving a tight and unified performance-oriented chassis. High-quality bushings and mounts have proven to be one of the most rewarding, albeit less conspicuous, additions to a performance car. The ECS Heavy-Duty engine snub-mount anchors your power train using a single direct-fit, full polyurethane piece - allowing the full measure of torque to reach the pavement under hard acceleration.

Upgrade your exterior lighting and rid yourself of the amber turn signals found on US spec headlights. FK Halogen European spec headlights feature a clear turn signal and integrated angel eyes for a more modern appearance. The set includes both left and right headlight housings; use the included wiring harness to power up your own angel-eye bulbs.

Your B8 A4 features highly individualized design elements that make successfully complementing the vehicle with aftermarket wheels a serious challenge.

Designed to bolt right up to your car, the 349 fits perfectly without modification.

Few sensors in any car have a higher authority than the Mass Air Flow (MAF)sensor. It is so critical to fuel control that a failed or contaminated MAF can cause an assortment of driveability problems: reduced power and fuel economy, ping, a failed emissions test, and sometimes, a no-start. If your car suffers from MAF-related bog, stumble, erratic idle, stalling, or an illuminated check engine light, a new Bosch MAF can restore lost performance in minutes, and increase fuel economy. Readily accessible; easy to install.

The mass air flow sensor, or MAF, controls the amount of fuel delivered through the injectors based on the volume of air entering the intake. If your vehicle is throwing a MAF code, replace it as soon as possible to ensure you get the best fuel mileage and performance. It is common for this part to fail slowly, causing poor fuel mileage and hampered performance. When it fails completely, the vehicle will stutter and stall as it falls into a limp mode.

It's common tuner wisdom that increasing airflow & reducing exhaust restrictions increases an engine's ability to make power. Of course, more available air only translates to increased power output when an engine's ECU adjusts to this new condition by adding more fuel to the mixture. The importance of a superior-performing fuel pump should be obvious - the majority of power modifications place extra demands on this part, posing the risk of fuel cutouts or fuel pump failure. With the Autotech Hi-Volume Fuel Pump Upgrade, the sky is the limit, offering up to 50% more fuel flow.

Countdown to launch. All systems go. Engage. Before your next stop light liftoff, add a space age digital system monitor to your cockpit. P3Cars Vent Integrated Digital Interface is a plug-and-play data display that fits like factory into the left side dash vent, in easy view of the pilot seat. Pop it in and plug it into your car's onboard diagnostic connector. Then scroll through critical vehicle parameters and monitor manifold pressure, system temperatures, and other vital stats.

Why not replace your worn stock clutch with something special? We have three great clutch conversion kits built around our ECS-engineered lightweight RA4 flywheel. This lightweight design reduces rotational mass for faster revs off idle, while its larger clutch contact surface improves clamping for better power transfer. Improved low-end throttle response. Smooth operation. Less lost power off the line. Stronger and tougher than the original. If performance is job one on your to-do list, ECS Tuning Clutch Kits deliver.

The cam chain tensioner supplied for the B6 A4 1.8T actually executes two critical functions. Maintaining adequate tension on the timing chain is its most basic purpose, keeping the correct level of slack in the chain to best balance noise levels and friction reduction. The second function of this deceptively advanced part is controlling cam timing, increasing power through all rpms by rapidly adjusting the valve opening and closing event. ECS offers the Uro Cam Chain Tensioner, allowing your 1.8T the opportunity to make maximum power & maintain efficient timing chain operation.
