The only change made to the vehicle between testing is the swap from a stock intake with a new clean air filter to the IE Cold Air Intake Kit. Dyno power results are approximate and may vary from car to car.

NOT YOUR AVERAGE INTAKE
IE engineers set out to produce the highest performing cold air intake that looks great and fits like a factory installed part in your S4. The latest in computer design and 3D scanning technology were employed during the development process for a perfect fit and maximum performance. The final product resulted in the greatest performing and best-looking intake available.
INCREASED AIR FLOW
This Intake delivers an impressive flow increase to feed your supercharger and engine. More cold air flow means more power, especially during the hot summer months. Ditch your stock restrictive airbox for the IE intake System.
HIGH-FLOW VELOCITY STACK
Delivering cold air to your engine is a must for making power. The velocity stack efficiently channels air as quickly as possible into the intake system. The velocity also functions as a solid mount for the air filter which means no intake pipes rattling on heat shields.
CUSTOM HEAT SHIELD
IE uses a multi-piece heat shield which performs and looks great. It effectively channels cold air from the front of the car to the massive performance filter. Furthermore, it eliminates the induction of hot air found in other locations of the engine bay further protecting against power robbing heat off the exhaust and supercharger.
PERFECT FITMENT FOR 3.0T ENGINES
This Intake fits B8 & B8.5 Audi S4 3.0T V6 Supercharged engines without any modification or installation hassles. The install process is simple and can be done quickly with basic tools. The fact that IE intake utilizes the factory airbox mounts ensures a perfect and hassle-free fit. Additionally, the stock mounts allow for engine movement which keeps intake components from getting damaged.
CLASSY AND CLEAN APPEARANCE
Wrinkle black powder coated velocity stack, inlet pipe, and heat shield results in a sleek and sporty appearance in any engine bay. As a final touch, all IE heat shields are finished with a classy, laser etched, stainless steel IE logo badge.
