I finally read the valve body or throttle body whichever means

It's a trick to compensate idle air mass by wider inner diameter
you may cut a few mil out of stock body for lower cost, popular in NA + S/C tuning.

Will it gain in AMG kompressor ?

Valve body it's inside your tranmission. It controls the shift, holding the gear longer and shift harder in this case.
The above is what amgc32 qouted me, I originally thought it was the throttle body also.

That is the fastest C32 I've ever seen. Looks like its time to look into chip, pulley, and that E55 part! Besides more power, the C32's biggest advantage is that the S4's tranny is automatic (tiptronic). It would be interesting if the Audi was a 6-speed and had some more power to keep up.

My cousins got a C32 with 275/40 Drag radials, RENNTech ECU and Pulley and hes pulling 12.8@109.9mph at the track...12.9@109mph consistantly!!!

Though i will have a setup to top that!!! hehe

box986 is RIGHT... the '02 have a tranny prob. sometimes and that's the part that goes bad. they changed mine to '03 and it bad again so the dealer said they'll put the new updated one next time i take it in... i guess they use the E55 one.

isn't c32 auto too? i would think both being auto... the awd in the s4 would actually suffer more powertrain loss than a rwd...yeah? no?

Thumbs up

All I have to say is when the Benz took off after the count to 3 shown in the video, that exhaust roar was simply awesome, not even a big V8 can match that kind of noise
