    Question Two questions about Stasis Supercharger

    Thinking about doing this for my V10 when it arrives.

    Does it require the manifold?

    Anybody have a picture of it in a coupe?

    Re: Two questions about Stasis Supercharger

    • The STāSIS Supercharger uses the stock intake parts (airbox, filters, MAF sensors, and throttle bodies) up to the intake manifold.
    • The STāSIS Supercharger replaces the stock intake manifold with:
      • A new intake plenum (the U-shaped shiny ribbed part in the photo).
      • The supercharger (the waffle-surfaced part).
      • A new intercooler plenum and intake manifold below the supercharger (also ribbed; mostly hidden in the photo).
    • The STāSIS Supercharger does not require the STāSIS exhaust. (Just in case you meant that "manifold".)

    Re: Two questions about Stasis Supercharger

    I realize both images I posted are of the V8. I couldn't find a V10 coupe photo.
    On the V10, the intake plenum is stretched, the supercharger itself is longer by one row of "waffles", and the intake manifold/intercooler underneath is, of course, longer by two cylinders. In this spyder photo the black bar blocks the view of the intake plenum, but if you carefully compare it to the V8 images you can see the differences.

    Re: Two questions about Stasis Supercharger

    Thanks! It looks great! A couple more questions (they may never stop...)

    I notice in the photos there's also some carbon fiber on the aluminum version but not on the black version. Are those parts STāSIS or Audi? If Audi, what comes with the V10 Coupe?

    Nope, I meant the intake. I guess I should have said plenum.

    Are there any performance advantages to the exhaust with the SC?

    Re: Two questions about Stasis Supercharger

    That piece between the inlet tubes with "V8 FSI" is Audi. You can see in the spyder photo and this photo of stock the silver "Y" shaped / three-pronged bracket which holds it. On the V8 the carbon engine bay trim is an option. (I'm told the "supercharged" badge we put on my car is an Audi exterior badge from another model.)

    I've heard there is not, but it sure sounds faster!

    Stock V10 / V8

    Re: Two questions about Stasis Supercharger

    I think the carbon fiber in the engine compartment is standard on the v10. It certainly sets off the aluminum very well!

    Thanks again for the quick replies.

    FWIW, I like the STāSIS supercharger so much on my V8 that I've had idle thoughts of getting a V10 coupe just so I can do this to it!

    Is my plan, Sell V8 end of Summer and order V10 for a Spring delivery and will have Stasis Supercharger and Exhaust waiting at dealer to be installed.

    Is it possible to get the Stasis supercharging for the V10 without making the exhaust any louder?
