Here are some pictures and information for the GruppeM intake for the B7 RS4.

 

would this fit a 2004-2005 B6 or 2005+ B7 S4 ?

 

I am checking, however they do make an intake for the S4

 

Group M from Japan told me today that delivery time is AT LEAST 3 to 4 weeks. Also, when doing the YEN to US DOLLAR conversion, I realized that there wont be many of these coming state side at $1,400.00 a shot. Oh, and that doesn't include shipping, duties and taxes.

Will see if Carbonio will have a kit available in the next couple of months.

Some follow up on the Gruppe M air-intakes.
After communicating with Japan and the yen to dollar conversion rate this intake unit costs very close to $1,600. Add to this they say the buyer has to pay taxes and other import duties (whatever that means).

For me $1,600 for 5 to 7 hp gain is no deal.

My shop checked with Carbonio and they may have an air-intake system in 3 months for the RS4. Estimated cost are going to be in the $500 to $600.
I will plan to wait and see what develops.

I knew this company would be expensive based on my experience with them before and ordering an air intake for the 997 GT3. The price was $2,900 and it was ordered in Aug '07 and I'm still waiting for it.
Make your own decisions.
