Default S3 Dyno

I've heard the S4 is very underrated when it comes to horsepower (Audi states S4 as making 333hp but everyone seems to generally agree it is much higher).

Anyone of the opinion that the 292 advertised horsepower in the S3 is a bit conservative? The performance numbers (0-60, 1/4 mile) seem to indicate a more powerful engine than what is being officially published.

All German car manufactures understate the power ratings of the engines in thier cars. German law states that if you say 300 BHP, every engine MUST produce at least 300 BHP or there will be fines.
