It's pretty simple for this one too. Just a change to the throttle scalar.

I would like to make a positive comment/experience with the Katech V1 in my Z51 C& A8. I have driven at least 7K with my V1 with a completely stock tune. I do have a Halltech CAI, Formato Intake Manifold, a Borla X Pipe and a lower temp T-stat. With the exception of a couple times my car had minor stumbling for a second or 2 per the earlier descriptions, I have not had any other driveability issues whatsoever. I considered switching to a V2, but unless I have additional issues that are more severe, I see no reason to change.
Now... My A8 was another matter... TC replaced and all seems well... for now at least.

It's a ported factory throttle body with the correct numbers and connector. Very unlikely to be noticed. Or keep your oe throttle body when you go in for repairs
