I installed one of these two year ago on my 2013 S4... Could have saved a lot of time if I knew about that trick to get the fuses out of the way!! BTW... If you don't want to fiddle with the vent slats, P3Cars sells this unit already pre-installed in the vent for like $200 more. Can't wait to see what your stock 0-60 time is!! I got my P3 to read 3.5 sec. after upgrading to a tune and dual supercharger pulleys!
Smart idea to check it works before install! I used some Tesa tape to hold the wire down on the inside of the vent. Electrical tape would also probably do the job.
A really useful gauge for the S4 would be an oil temperature gauge. I am left guessing how hot the engine is running. It was on some of my prior Audi models.
Huh... Maybe that's because this is a video showing how to INSTALL the boost gage, then he immediately mentions that they'll be making another video going over the setup and operation of the boost gage. These videos may not be jump cut to hell with over the top personalities and tons of useless dialog, but they are clearly laid out, well lit with great camera angles, professionally skripted and edited, and very thoroughly explained. Sure, I guess he could've started the car and shown flashing numbers, but how would that have given you any more information than you already had!?! You already saw him power it before installing, random numbers showing up wouldn't have informed you any more about installing it, and he literally said that they would be covering the gage in another video! These guys put out some of the best auto install videos I've ever come across and should be getting tons of credit for the effort they put into showing people how to install stuff they don't even necessarily sell. They are literally showing their customers how to do work that they could be getting paid to do! All while spending a lot of time they could be earning, putting together these great videos.
Do I have to code a new alcantara steering wheel if it comes from poland? Could you guys do a video on it? I kno my friends BMW has an airbag light now and he doesnt know how to code it.
Hey I know this is off topic, but I saw your video on OBDeleven and wanted to know if it was a good option to use to diagnose micro switches in the driverside door hinge?
You make great videos, but I'm really disappointed in this one. It would have been really nice to see the gauge and the vent fins put back together before you go back to the car. Also... at least turn it on after you installed it!!! I know you did another video, but that's a pretty bad tease dude.
Never ever do such a things, soooo dangerous, people installing carplays, screens, wireless charges, screens. It may cause chassis proplem and end your battery, after 2 year, you may have to spent thousands dollars to restore electric systems.

Nice clean look to incorporate into your car. Better than the old round boost gauges I used to run!

Is your car auto or manual?
DSG

Hi there! Can you show how to wire up the auto dimming function by any chance? I can’t really find it anywhere
Love this b8.5 series! Giving me a lot of inspiration and ideas for the car 👍🏼

Just code a lape Timer ... so u have your Oiltemp. for free. U can do it with VCDS
I’d love to see how you tap the auto dimmer. In the P3 video can you show how to manually dim the brightness. Thanks for the content
This has gotta be the fastest S4
You have every performance part available
Very slick looking, thank you!
Sat here for 15 freaking minutes and never got the end result. 😑😑😑
Daniel Torres that is why I had to thumbs down :( I clicked the video for the end result.
His stragy of earning more money from youtube, uses us to keep in touch and he earns thousands dollars
Why not use the analogue option for the boost reading? OBD boost reading is inaccurate (only requested boost, not actual).
Just subscribed look forward to following the build!
Do recommend any other gauges for the Audi B8 S4? This one seems very pricey.
Any tips (new to this)
you show how it installs, but does not show working after installation 🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦
Heitor Stender he says it at the end of the video to look in their other videos for the one that shows how to work the p3 gauge....
Huh...

How accurate is the boost reading??
I love the sound of cheap plastic in the morning.
I wish you had more compare videos. Like why p3 is better than Scan Gauge 2 or Autometer Dashlink?
going to talk about on AskDAP 123
How did you unplug the vent? Is plug buried deep I. The vent tube?
Did you ever find out? Did you pull the vent out more to get to the plug?
did your car come with the dash trim gloss black?! i thought they all came in gloss gray?!?!
Yaimdan they do, he either painted or wrapped it
is there one of these for the 2012 audi a7?
I have one but it stop working it’s stuck on the same number it won’t go up or nothing

gingi 801 if anyone wanted to know yes it's a great tool to diagnose those switches
DCT Fluid service..Would be helpful video next
patience grashopper
Would this work on B8?
Great if you have a left hand drive car....
Sick
I just want the car when you finish with it. 😁
You make great videos, but I'm really disappointed in this one. It would have been really nice to see the gauge and the vent fins put back together before you go back to the car. Also... at least turn it on after you installed it!!! I know you did another video, but that's a pretty bad tease dude.
HOLD UP!!!! I CAN'T FIND THE FOLLOW UP VIDEO! THAT'S JUST CRUEL!
hello. I have VW SCIROCCO TSI 2009. lamp flashing hand brake and make beep . but brake is good . need help?
PLEASE INSTALL APR Coolant Performance System!!!!!
We are a Unitronic dealer but we will likely have another brand cooling upgrade
It's not that tough just a bit of time for the self bleed system.
390 bucks? Why is all that shit for a B8(.5) so darn expensive? Jesus Christ...
ohhhhh fck no

Qsock
Useless

Would love to see both of these as those are the next mods going on my B8.5 S5!
