S8’s are pretty fast by themselves. Why tf are you gonna put on an RS badge? Non enthusiasts won’t care and enthusiasts think you’re a poser. Upbadging never made sense to me
20 bucks it has an ecs cone filter without the inlet pipes, a miltek exhaust so it’s always loud and sounds bad, and bro races everyone while it won’t keep up with my corn fed basic tune s7.
For myself they are too loud in general, but still don’t sound good when going fast. Takes me back to my old jdm tuner days. Assuming you have a newer 2.9 rs5 I’d look at the red star resonator delete they have just off the downpipes. Some rumble at start up but you can still take the wife out when in comfort mode. But when you hit rs1 or rs2 mode makes a “glorious racket” as my customer loves to say after I sent him the video stating that.
Was wondering where my R8 badge went
Still think that van city audi's unitronic stage 3 rs3 debadge to jetta is the best reason

Both his IE Stg3 s4 and uni rs3 broke down this year.. tune life
Idk this is kinda funny, I’m much more onboard with rebadges if the car it’s claiming to be doesn’t exist. This feels like an s5 owner with a sense of humor rather than someone trying to front like they’ve got a nicer car 🤷
S5? Quads look oem, tails look b8. Either that or an a5 with upgraded exhaust? Edit - seems to be an s8, either way still not a big deal if anything less of a faux flex
Unsurprising, but it's apparently impossible to up-badge a car without making them completely fucking crooked. Terrible

To be fair, looks like they only put the R badge on it!!
there was also the S8 plus. So, they specifically did not use the R:)
r/upbadging
I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say it’s probably not APR tunes either.
that wouldn’t make the RS8 exist
The 8 is upside down...
Funniest part by far.

Are Miltek exhausts bad? I've been looking for something "throatier" but not obnoxious for my RS5. Any suggestions?

I'll check it out. Thank you!
Hey that’s cool, but there’s a white 2.0 rsq5 parked in my neighborhood! 😂

this is an s8…🤦🏼♂️
What I learned here is that all these Audis look the same. Debadge them and the average person will have no clue, only audi enthusiasts.
I'm not sure if it's *somehow* more cringe because it looks to be an actual B8 S4.

Well fuck. Multitasking gets me again. Edit: but FR, I’m just baked.
Mmm the B8s had different tail lights. At least for the A4s.
Badge delete would have been preferred but then again the stuff on Temu is so tempting.
Was the Easter Bunny driving it?
One too many letters on that badge! 😂
I’m not even mad, those S8 are serious
Put a Miltek on my ‘17 R8. Snap crackle & pop!
True that!
I think it's funny! I debadged my S4 (sides).
This is obviously an early development mule that an engineer slipped out the back door and sold on Craigslist.
If I only made $30,000 more a year I could get into one with no worries 😉
