Samco Sport Silicone Throttle Body Boot (TBB)
I am waiting for some new clamps before I put this on. I have been noticing some miss fires and possible boost leaks. Audi’s stock TBB on the 2000 S4 was crappy. So they updated it in 2001 and made it better. Well that one still tore. I went the cheap route and got the Samco Silicone TBB for $68 over getting the APR Bi-pipe. The Bi-pipe is still not out of the question but it’s priced at $349 and requires a lot more work than this does. I figured I would replace this until I think about a different solution.
I almost got the Archtuning version 2 TBB because it was more stock looking and also made of silicone. It comes with very nice clamps that I purchased separately for this Samco install. I also heard that with the Samco TBB you can’t fit the front engine cover. I like that cover and would like to keep it on there. So maybe I should have gone with that at $169.
I want to replace my head lights with the Valeo E-codes and when that time comes maybe I will upgrade to the APR Bi-pipe if I think I need it. The installation of the bi-pipe requires that you take off the headlight housing making it a good opportunity to upgrade while I’m in there anyway.
