The ECS Luft-Technik Intercooler and Charge Pipe System was designed and engineered in-house to provide you with a direct bolt-on system to increase air flow, decrease restrictions, intake temps, and most importantly increase power! ECS Tuning's Luft-Technik Intercooler features a 21x9x3 aluminum bar and plate core with cast aluminum end tanks which uses factory mounting locations, so that no trimming or cutting is necessary. This makes installation completely reversible, creating a system to optimize performance and provide the clean look that Audi owners have come to expect.

With this kit you ditch the factory Air to Water setup for an Air to Air design that drastically decreases intake air temps and keeps them down pull after pull. Instead of hot coolant being circulated though the air to water cooler in the engine bay you get a front mounted intercooler, FMIC, that is constantly getting cooled by air flow though the grill and is completely isolated from the engine compartment making it more resistant to heat soak. The Engineering team at ECS Tuning has spent countless hours in the development of the exclusive C7 / C7.5 S6 Air To Air Intercooler Kit. This Air To Air kit is a culmination of almost 3 years of research and development, multiple rounds of prototypes and revisions, rigorous real world testing, and verified the performance gains on our in-house chassis dyno. The end result of all of this effort is an intake system that combines unrivaled beauty, fitment, quality and performance in one stunning package that will make a statement on your C7 / C7.5 S6.

I purchased this car off our co-worker, Evan, after pestering him 5 times for it, with the full intent of doing a 4.2L belt driven V8 swap out of a 2000 S8. Since purchasing, the swap is complete along with replacement of the entire B5 S4 front & rear subframes and suspension. I rounded out the build with an 18Z BBK in the front and B5/B7 S4 BBK in the rear. To keep that V8 cool I took a MK4 Radiator and flipped it with some persuasion with a tig welder along with an E-Fan conversion. Up next PAINT...

The Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) system plays a vital role in managing engine blow-by gases, reducing emissions, and regulating crankcase pressure. On the B6 A4 1.8T, the factory PCV components are known to wear out over time, leading to cracked lines, stuck valves, and internal leaks. When this occurs, excess oil vapor from the crankcase ventilation system can accumulate inside your intake tract, coating the intake manifold and intake valves in sticky, oily residue. The result? Increased oil consumption, erratic idle, loss of boost, and reduced power. The ECS Tuning Performance Baffled Oil Catch Can System is a performance-focused upgrade that addresses these issues at the source. Through intensive research, our engineers found two critical flaws in the 1.8T's factory PCV system weak rubber and plastic construction used for plumbing, and poor oil separator circulation. To solve these issues, our kit incorporates high-quality silicone hoses for plumbing and a strategically positioned four-chamber baffled catch can. This precision-engineered system intercepts and traps oil vapor before it can enter the intake system, significantly reducing oil buildup on the back of intake valves, preserving your engine's performance, efficiency, and longevity.

Constructed from heat-sensitive plastic, your factory 1.8T fuel injector cups are prone to self-destruction. After years of constant exposure to engine heat, vibration, and chemical-laden fuel residue, cracks will form in the seat of the insert and create a multitude of issues.
