Achtuning welcomes home an old friend…
Written by Dion on August 7, 2008 – 11:43 am -It wasn’t very long after we completed Bob’s B5 RS4 conversion project that the car was driven down Hwy 101 from Washington to California where it would reside for almost a year. Just last week Bob brought the car back up to Washington (coming back up the same way he went down) to give us an opportunity to show it off at this weekend’s WaterWërks event.
Bob’s B5 S4 received the full RS4 conversion treatment when it was here at Achtuning. The APR Stage III kit for the B5 S4 is an unbeatable combination of factory RS4 components and APR programming bumping stock horsepower to an APR claimed 447hp and 467ft-lbs of torque! Further, this is a daily driven car that Bob reports drives perfectly each day without a single issue.
Modifications include…
Engine:
* APR Stage III kit
* APR RS4 Intercooler and Hose kit
* RS4 Oil Cooler Kit
* RS4 Engine Mounts
* RS4 Carbon Fiber Engine Covers
Exhaust:
* Milltek Downpipes and High Flow Cats
* Milltek SuperDual Twin Pipe Cat-back Exhaust
Drivetrain:
* RS4 Flywheel
* RS4 Clutch Kit
* STaSIS TorSen Center Differential
* STaSIS LSD – Rear Differential
Brakes & Suspension:
* STaSIS Motor Sport Coil Over Suspension Kit
* STaSIS Monobloc 6 – 355 Big Brake System
* STaSIS Rear Brake Kit
Wheels & Tires:
* Volk CE28N Forged Wheels – 19X9.5 et36 – Anthracite
* Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3 – 275/30-19
Interior:
* Status Carbon Fiber/Silver Alcantara Laguna Seats
* Silver Alcantara door cards and rear seat inserts
* RS4 Door Sills
Exterior:
* RS4 Complete Body Kit
* Valeo Xenon HID Euro Housings
* Stealth Bulbs
It’s great to see the car back. If you want to check the car out in person, be sure to stop by the Achtuning booth at the WaterWërks 2008 event.

What DON’T Hartmann 252s look good on?
Written by Dion on July 31, 2008 – 5:37 pm -It’s tough… I have yet to see the Hartmann 252 wheel NOT compliment any of the VWs or Audis we put them on. There are a few wheels that we consider as a “classic” wheel style – no matter what you put them on, they will continue to look good. It seems the Hartmann B7 HRS4 – 252 wheel is one of them.
Today, we had a customer drive down from Vancouver, B.C. with friends and family to enjoy the sights of Seattle while we added wheels and tires to their car. Below is a B6 A4 1.8T rockin’ our Hartmann 252 in a 19×8.5″ size and 38mm offset. Wrapped in Bridgestone Potenza RE750 tires in 235/35-19, the aggressive stance pushes the wheel towards the edge of the fender to give that “bulldog” stance that we at Achtuning like to see.
