Default R8's have modability?

As for the RS4, there's still exhaust and suspension that can be done.

Obviously not the kind of power gains to be had with a turbo car, but less heartache and expense as well.

Default Yeah, if they bring the turbo V6 back in the B8

I'm sure you'll be able to chip it. If they don't do a turbo RS4 tho, the turbo upgrade path may be more difficult and quite a bit more expensive.

It also boils down to price for me, in 2-3 years I should be able to get an Audi Assured RS4 for quite a bit less than a new B8 S4 will cost...
