Way to go! That’s incredible to see and must be such a great feeling. In regard to the tires, I recently did exactly the same on my Golf R. Went from Michelin PS4S to Bridgestone RE71Rs and the difference was incredible. They handle pretty decent in the wet too if you ever get any rain down there. Keep on pushing!
Thanks brother! It was an incredible weekend. I knew the car was capable of, but I had no idea it had that much in it. And I love those tires!
Great video! Hit the sub 2 minute club! Congrats!
Love it. No virtual cockpit, good to see another poverty spec S4 our there :)
“Poverty spec” 😂
Very good video, thanks for the insight. The humor compelled me to like and subscribe too. =)
Channel is getting fun to watch now bro 🎉 remember we got the exact same car haha same color as welll 😅
Thanks bro! That’s right! Glad you enjoyed it.
Congratulations
Thanks!
man your videos are too good to be this underrated, so good to have great content about my car
Wow thanks! 🙏 hopefully the channel takes off some day. I’m going to keep working on it. Appreciate the support!
love your vids, are you sponsored by 034 at this point?
Let’s go!! 🎉🎉🎉
If that was the only sponsor I could find... "Hot Alien Babes" Credit the win to other driver doubling your weight.
You know you checked out the hot alien babes website. Come on. Be honest. 😂
these new b9 s4 are pretty damn slept on
You should have driven both cars , same driver diff cars . Your lines were better , and that’s says a lot with a understeer prone overweight 4 door sedan vs a mid engines 2 door coupe .
I kind of wanted to make this series about both the car and driver/owner. We know the better car will win every time with a professional driver, but I like adding the driver variable. 🤷♂️
I love the s4
How many times can 034 Motorsport be said in one video?😂
034 more times.
Any drone at highway speeds?
Nope. It’s really great.
amazing video and I'm impressed you beat the Cayman lol
You picked nice lines on the track.
Nice video and great series idea. If you're able to add weight to the comparative specs that would be great. I think the AWD helped you win this battle even though you're probably heavier but might not be the case in other battles. Also you probably have more torque which i think plays better for autocross than horsepower as we're not looking for top speed but acceleration off the corners
Great suggestions! Thank you!
Nice job brotha! Very smooth driving. Great use of the full track!
Thanks a lot!
Nice! Great looking lap You're over there living my dream
Thanks! Where are you located?
U killed that
the crazy part is it still had more room to go even with you pushing it to the limit you can see in the video alot of corners where you can get back in faster. When you learn the brakes and the track a bit more.
I totally agree! That was my first weekend ever pushing it at that track and my first hot lap with those tires. I see many opportunities in the video. I wonder if I could have even gotten a 1:55 with a cleaner run. Regardless I’m super happy considering full weight and no aero.
Thanks bro!
@@midlifemods I honestly think you could get a 1:50
@ oh wow! I don’t know. It’s hard to see and hear in the video how much I’m fighting grip and under steer but maybe you’re right. One way to find out right? 😃
Driving gloves 🤣🤣🤣really????
Yep.
Randy has some good vinwiki stories very cool guy
Do you regret not getting the sport diff? Mine doesn't have it either and I feel like I'm missing out big time
It doesn’t ever cross my mind. 😁 the Quattro does a great job as is in my opinion and losing a little grip is more fun 😂
I've never seen chrome calipers before. That's amazing, and a bold choice. But now your gorgeous BBK upgrade up front only makes the rears look cheap. Hand-painted yellow on little floating calipers... come on man. Regardless, I like you and your channel. You make me smile, because boy do I relate. /subbed
I’m basically a rolling mullet with these yellow rear brakes! 😂
why does your 2022 model not have a digital cockpit ?
I bought the base model (premium) because I all the mods I was going to do. Also, I love the analog dash. 😎
so it’s dyno at 368 whp but due to drive train loss? it is at 450whp???
I’m not good at dyno math. And apparently all dynos are different and spit out different numbers so I’m just going off of what the owner of the dyno says… he says it’s at around 500 engine HP not wheel HP. I’m not sure what the conversion from 500 engine HP to wheel hp, but I know it’s much less.
Sweet video! Those brakes look fire!
Thanks!
I tried really hard, but I couldn't convince myself to get the full brake kit. Instead I just went with the j-hooks, some good pads, and ss lines on all four corners. Those nickel calipers look hot!
Hey man, that’s a great set up for a daily driver. That’s what I had and I was happy. but for racing, I needed to at extra advantage.
How do you not have more subscribers!! Great video!!
Wow thank you! 🙏 can you please go find some for me? 😂
@@midlifemods I’m editing a couple vids, I’ll throw a plug in them for you.
Thanks man! I can’t wait to see the blue beauty on the road.
That whole 034 setup looks 🔥
Their products are the best!
Excellent save. The wall on the left was coming up fast and you avoid it. I think the tires are trying to talk to you.
God dam you definitely spent 10 plus omg
My feet finders account has been blowing up lately. Gotta fund this project somehow. 😂 Kidding. This video was sponsored. Check out the link in the description of the video for author Michael-Scott Earl.
Good video. Did you have the Audi sport resonators prior to the 034 deletes? Also are the selling the H&R springs?
@@crxgatorthanks! I did not have the sport resonators and I am selling my springs. Hit me up on instagram if you’re interested. @themidlifemods.
Brakes look 🔥. Looking forward to the track day video!
Kids are very resilient,I think he will be fine.🤣😉
Yo hilarious video! I have my RS3 stage 1 tuned by unitronic, and now giving 034 a chance with my Q7 today. We will see how it goes!
Thanks! Good luck!
How long you been in e85
About a year.
@@midlifemods wow no issues?
Nope. Why? Have you heard of people having issues? Should I be worried? 😃
@@midlifemods rotate off of it for a bit couple weeks let the car breathe
Got s5 2015 with 57k miles for 14.5k car is clean some millionaire was getting read of one or his toys its convertible so probably gonna tune it after winter
I really think your issue with paint coverage came from the fact that your calipers were already painted. I’ve watched 10s of videos of this exact paint system and all of the ones without pre painted calipers were basically covered after 2 coats. I said that to say, yours looks just as good as the rest I’ve seen, you did a great job and you are another reason I’m planning on getting this kit.
I think you’re absolutely right. The factory paint was not a great source for adhesion. But overall, they turned out pretty good. But can you believe I just took them off for a big brake kit? After all that work 😂
@@midlifemods I can believe that 😂 seems like that’s the go to for everyone as well as the g2 paint
So much torque! @034motorsports love the tune!
not located in TN by chance are ya
Nope. CA. Why you want to drive my car? 🙃
This production value is 🔥
what is the brand jack system you use in your garage? would like to buy one
I’m pretty sure they’re quick jack
why didnt you just buy the audi ceramics... would last a good while and provide PREMIUM breaking.
My budget. And these are fantastic with the right pads.
Do they even make a ceramic for the S4?
Hey, great mod list. I have also just bought a new 2024 S4 as well. Would you say the suspension mod do justice to the car? hard to put a preference but I have driven things like M340i, daily an e46(still have this) and miata.. lol what would you put the S4 against given handling/suspension mod.?
Thanks! I’ve shared my full mod list on Audi World forum if you’re interested. www.audiworld.com/forums/s4-b9-platform-discussion-214/my-s4-build-3071456/ I think the sway bar kit and lower springs completely transformed the car. When you combine those mods with the all wheel drive Quattro system, you can keep up with almost any car and average driver on your typical roads.
Bro good video but those goofy ass gloves 😂😂😂😂😂
Decker Canyon is one of my fav roads as well. Btw you would have more fun in a M340i with a Bootmod3 tune :D
😃more fun? Oh yeah? Maybe we need to swap cars and see. You might be surprised how much fun this is 😀
@@midlifemods lol that would be the ultimate video that would get all the views, Two Dads switch Euro Cars to see the difference.
Hit me up on IG! @themidlifemods
The stage 1 e85 was fkn awesome so worth it!
Right?!
That was a fun one,start to finish,way to go Ryan the video guy...I'm wondering if maybe you're addicted to racing.???Just a thought.🤔
So here for a Volvo wagon race car! Did I see a VW Beetle?! Beautiful Passes! Great video Dillon!
