When you start the car in dynamic, you have to cycle it to efficiency and wait for about 4 to 5 seconds and then back to dynamic for it to pop straight away. Give it a try

Would this or the VPS front res delete be a better option if I want louder exhaust/pops/crackles, but little to no drone?
@staykeenofficial

Front res delete 100%. I'm doing a similar overhaul 2018 B9 S4, tuned, and from what I've read, people get least amount of drone with just the front dual resonators deleted. After watching every video on the internet and analyzing sounds, here's what I believe to be true. The mid-muffler, which is solid piped to the factory valved rear mufflers, does a great job at controlling drone, so if both front mufflers/resonators and mid-muffler are deleted (and NOT straight-piped, but H or X-piped) from what I've read - you can introduce bad drone. Replacing ONE of the two (either fronts, or mid) results in more growl but very few reports of drone. An upgraded HFC or catless DP will only exaggerate the sound you're already hearing, but adds additional RASP and crackle. Coincidentally the upgraded HFC is a Stage 2 requirement means most of the cars you're hearing examples of in rev and launch videos - are already Stage 2 or higher. 034/IE, etc. tunes at that stage (especially TCU tunes) will further enhance that additional rasp and crackle. So, depending on your overall mod goals - I would recommend the following staggered deletion method to make sure you don't overdo it. Start with the dual front resonators deleted, (or replace the front midpipes altogether) listen to it (Soundaktor = 0). If you want more bass, delete next your mid-muffler (with the least amount of bends in those "deletion pipes") at a muffler shop or DIY. Listen to it again, go for a drive, make sure to hit 5th and 6th gear at "cruising" RPMs (2K-3K) and check for drone. Still seeking more savagery, then bite the bullet and find a non-resonated catback exhaust like Milltek or Valvetronic and burn that money chasing the perfect sound. Truth is, the quiet stock exhaust is actually beautifully designed and can support up to 500/600whp - it just doesn't make the same impression as a modded exhaust.

I do agree this B9 gen sounds great. My car is currently running a Fi catback and it sounds fantastic. I am going to install a Catted downpipe very soon with the 034 stage 2, it's going to be very crazy. But I did realize that this car's ECU is kinda wack. Whenever I left the car in dynamic and I start up the car, it's not in the dynamic mode. Even though it says dynamic, but the idle rev stays under 1k. Which in dynamic it would idle at 1k. So if I rev up my car right after start, it makes no pops, but if I switch back to auto then dynamic it idles higher and will do the pop and bangs. IDK if that's only me or all B9 platforms. Just find it weird and interesting.

To get the pops you always have to put the car back to comfort and than back to dynamic after you start it up. The sound and the gearbox will always start in comfort regardless of the mode you are in. Also what I saw from your old videos that you were using launch control with esp completely off. You will get the amax shifts only with the esp in sport mode (short press on the off button). You can hear it and feel it when the launch control is active. The car will not "fart" while changing the gears from 1 to 2 and from 2 to 3 and these two shifts will feel like it is shifting without letting of the gas like a no lift shift. The car will jump forward while shifting in amax.

With the valves, do you have to put it in dynamic mode, ignition on before you unplug the connector.? worried that when car is off, the valves are closed? so if you unplug it, you are keeping them shut
@drivenbyboost
2 жыл бұрын
Since the mechanism keeping them closed is turned off the valves will naturally want to stay open and will remain open when driving. However recent data suggests on these cars when doing so you actually lose some power
