We're excited; and with good reason. ECS Tuning proudly introduces our new line of premium, corrosion-resistant rotors: GEOMET®. GEOMET® is a special coating containing metal oxides, zinc, and aluminum flakes, sprayed over the entire rotor surface to ensure complete coverage, and baked on at 600 degrees to form a durable and attractive silver-gray finish that fights rust far better than paints or other conventional coatings. You can expect your new GEOMET® rotors to outperform and outlast stock rotors, and look great behind your alloy wheels

In as few as 50,000 miles, the control arms on the front of your vehicle can creak, groan, and cause your vehicle to feel completely unstable on the road. At highway speeds, your vehicle may wander from side to side because of suspension control arm problems. Fortunately, ECS Tuning has a complete front control arm kit from Vaico at a great price - it's the perfect time to regain driving confidence and control. All arms come with factory installed ball joints and bushings.

H&R Sway Bars are crafted from the highest tensile strength steel-alloy available (50CrV4), which translates to fast feedback response time, guaranteeing smooth transitional sway bar function. H&R Sway Bars are precision engineered and manufactured in Germany, and are incredibly strong and durable. Each sway bar is cold-formed and heat-treated, with forged, seamless bar ends. H&R then shot-peens to check for dimensional correctness.

The first generation RS4 featured the most advanced variant of the Audi 2.7 litre biturbo V6 engine. The 375hp motor necessitated more durable engine mounts to ensure that engine vibrations didn't equate to power losses. While the RS4 never made it to North America, ECS offers it's more advanced engine mounts for your 2.7T-powered Audi Allroad. A better secured engine means the engine can effectively transfer power through the drivetrain, and because the mounts are OEM parts, you can expect minimal transference of vibration into the cabin.

When you don't want to settle for less, get the legendary quality of Bilstein shocks. Designed for the performance minded automotive enthusiast, these Sport Shocks allow an unparalleled level of control. They have been designed for use with either stock or lowering springs or upgraded sway bars, these shocks will take your suspension to a new level of performance. Great look. Improved performance.

ECS GEOMET® premium brake rotors start with quality materials and precision ECS machining. That would be enough for most of us, but it is only the beginning. To prevent brake pad deposits for better braking, select a slotted and dimpled ECS GEOMET® rotor. Slotting cleans the pads by moving water, gasses, and contaminants away from the pad/rotor contact surface. To prevent rust pitting and corrosion damage, ECS GEOMET® rotors are sprayed with a special water-based solution, then heated to cure the coating and remove all oil residue remaining from the manufacturing process.

Check out the Vaico diverter valve for your B5 S4. Keep your boost inside the intake - where it belongs. Cure common driveability concerns with this stronger, more durable 710N valve. Diverter valves live in a tough neighborhood. By definition, they limit turbo boost, and most eventually fail due to a pin hole or tear in the valve diaphragm. The 710N Valve is a diaphragm-based, factory upgrade for a lot of applications. The 710N valve was originally found on the TT225, and is known to have a tougher internal diaphragm that can withstand higher boost levels.

With cars and engines routinely asked to run long past 100,000 miles, there's no money to be saved by putting off regular maintenance.

Our three-piece pulley kit combines weight savings with an overall underdrive pulley ratio to take back power that is usually lost to inertia and accessory loads. Available in black, blue, or red, these pulley kits come with a smaller diameter crank pulley, larger diameter power steering pulley, and stock diameter alternator pulley. This balanced combination reduces parasitic power losses associated with accessory loads and the high moment of inertia of heavier pulleys. Our carefully engineered set works perfectly with your stock tensioner and belt to save you money.

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 flywheel kits deliver.

The lowered ride height achieved by upgrading your factory suspension is a consequence of the modification, not its purpose. With this knowledge, you can appreciate the value of more finely wrought suspension designs, like those from ST. The ST-line Performance Coilovers utilize tempered high-strength springs, hardened chrome piston rods, and galvanized zinc-plated strut housings - a consequence of which is a powerful, aggressive stance. But the enduring value of this arrangement lay in its durability, reliability, and reverence for precise engineering.

Horn blasts and sideswipe near misses during lane changes are scary stuff. If you're lucky, all you get is a massive dose of horn before swerving back to your own lane. Where did HE come from? ECS heated Blind Spot mirrors expand your rear vision area to include that guy shadowing your quarter panel. Easy to install, these mirrors look good, and make merging with traffic a non-contact sport.

Don't wait for valves and pistons to bang heads in the dark. Avoid costly engine damage caused when a broken timing belt wreaks havoc inside your engine.
