The restrictive factory catalyst inhibits primary flow which limits the power and torque, increases lag, and causes a slower throttle response. 034 Motorsport offers the best solution to regaining that power, decreasing the lag, and increasing the throttle response by producing a higher flow section. With this catalyst, you experience better exhaust notes, improved performance over the power band of the car, and less time to build boost. Make sure you get the most from your B9 A4/S4 with the 034 Motorsport Racing Catalyst!

If you have an Audi B9, chances are you have an eye for subtle, functional, and artistic design.

Both more durable and more stylish, this hood latch handle is sure to match your attention to detail and add flair to an understated part of your bay.

ECS Exact-Fit stainless reinforced brake lines provide more confident and dependable stopping by maintaining consistent brake pressure, long lasting corrosion resistance, and increased protection from failure.

Factory brake calipers slide on guide pins through rubber bushings. This design is adequate and widely used from the factory by Audi/VW. For more precise braking, bronze bushings and 304 stainless steel guide pins allow for a more positive feel at the pedal and more even pad wear.

Working in concert with new stainless steel guide pins allows for a much longer service life and less maintenance.

In most vehicle applications, the plastic turbo inlet hoses found in the intake system are not designed for performance or modifications. They were designed to get the job done. When you add a performance filter, intake, or tune the stock hoses can start to show their weakness.

An unfortunate consequence of the modern closed PCV/breather system is the unintended ingestion of oil vapor and carbon into the intake tract. This lowers the octane rating and leaves harmful deposits on a vehicle's intake valves and ports that result in decreased power. Engineered in-house and manufactured here in the USA, the ECS Baffled Oil Catch Can features a highly efficient 4-chamber oil separator; this design decreases oil ingestion and maintains engine power output. This design also catches as much blow-by gas as possible, bringing carbon buildup to an absolute minimum.
