Thanks. Yes i have - non res valved. It is ****** loud outside the car! Make sure you are watching b8 videos as the b7 does not sound the same.Spot on thatDid you say you got the Miltek non resonated system btw? Found a couple of vids. Does sound very nice actually and one of the cheaper. Valvetronic?

I've had some success with the projector 'audi beam' puddle lights tonight. I tried some a while ago but the brightness and focus was naff, they got hot and they rattled. So this time around i changed the LED's, mounted the drivers differently, blacked them out to stop light escaping out the side, fitted better heatsinks with the proper chip paste, changed the focus so they are bigger but still crisp and fixed the rattles!

So by training I'm a chartered electrical engineer. I worked on naval radars and missiles. I moved on from that 10 years ago and work in marketing now so cars (and vintage lawnmowers) are my way of doing something tangible and practical for fun rather than workSheer commitment. What do you do for a living? This can't just come natural to you haha.

Yea i'm into my gardening. No not in the forces but working closely with them.Vintage lawn mowers?! Wow. Hand in hand obviously haha. Stick an old HEMI in one and see where that goes! Ex military? I'm in the mob myself. Definitely keeps me sane being a petrolhead. Cannot wait to get my RS4. Anything you hate about it?

There is nothing at all i hate. I ****** love the thing like i do my children! There are a handful of annoying things that are on most audi's but any annoyance just disappears when you open the sunroof, slip it into S and stick your foot in it

Got the adaptation to make the car remember the gearbox and engine drive select state on start up working:
Before:
After:
It does effect the throttle map and exhaust valves not just the D/S box setting but a cold start will override the exhaust valves to closed and a cycle through the drive select modes in P or a shift into drive from P will be required to open them as per normal Dynamic settings.

No change to the cold start at all. Just now the valves open when you put it in drive rather than having to cycle the modes. That's ideal so i can start in P without annoying the neighbours and just put it in drive (which will now be S not D) when the cold start has ended.So...still a quiet (relatively speaking) cold start? No open valve cold start?

Cold start with the valves open is stupidly loud, valves shut is still pretty full on.

Yea. The engine is never running in these 2 vids. Just ignition on to compare the close down and start up states.Arrrrrrr, I totally misunderstood then. That's ****** clever! Expect a serious request and long list of mods when I get mine

Thanks mate. Ordered some new pipework for a custom x-pipe in place of the milltek DP resonators which should work a treat. Hoping to have it done before the RR day. Need to go all out to make sure i beat my bro's 1.4 ibiza on the dayGreat work mate.
I am looking forward to seeing and hearing your car at the rolling road meet.

I did some videos of the valves pre and post adaptation with cold and warm starts I'll post up later.
I don't have a YouTube channel, just an account i use to host videos to put im here, ebay etc.

My RS4 went tits up yesterday with the engine management light came on and was running very rough, hopefully just coil packs so should get sorted this week.Thanks mate.

Cold start in dynamic with standard coding. Your options for opening the valves are a cycle through the modes or put it in Drive and then pull down to S. Note putting it back in D after this will revert the valves so the only way to make it stick is to cycle the modes:
Next up is the adjusted coding on a cold start in Dynamic. Again the valves shut because the cold start overides the dynamic setting but just putting it in drive opens them because it is in S from start not D. After this the drive select button works as normal to close and open them again:
Last up is a cold start followed by a warm start. The cold start valve operation is tested with the drive select button by a full cycle, it is shut down in dynamic then started again with no changes:

Yea I'm working on coding the favourite button on mineSpot on. Saves cycling through so much. Had to do that all the time in my B8.5 S4. Must admit, the star button on the B9 is pretty handy haha.

No i have the new buttons like you but not figured the coding 4 buttons on the right not 3

About 5 mins to swap the buttom module but the coding is not obviousEasy to retro fit that?
