This is not some antagonistic request for a race. I would just like to see how my modified and lightened B6 would do against an RS4. I'd like this is a friendly thing, maybe hook up early one morning (where there's no traffic) do a few pulls (video'd) and then head out to get coffee and doughnuts or something. For the record, I'm a huge fan of the car but haven't purchased one because I didn't feel there would be any great performance boost given all that I've done to mine. Anyone up for it? )

Default What is in your B6 S4?

Arent the V8 S4's limited to exhaust and modest chip gains? Unless you put the SC in it?

Default Correct.

Lol... I'm referring to the modest gains. It has the chip, full exhaust, and CAI. All in all, my most recent dyno equates to nearly 385hp at the crank, but big torque numbers. What makes the car fun, tho', is that I've chopped the weight down to 3660 lbs. So, the power to weight ratio is similar given that it weighs about 265lbs less, 9.34 for the RS4 vs 9.50 for me and it has more torque than a stock RS4. Should be very close.

dx, this is not to start a debate nor is it to diminish the wonderfulness of your car. Just a fun gtg. I have B5, B6 and B7 S4 friends. It would be cool to make an RS4 friend too.

Default do you wanna run a B5?

this isn't that type of reply either.....just like friendly comparisons too. Might do some pulls in that area (PA/NJ) with another SIII car.....so just throwing it out

Default I'd be cool with that.

Watching your taillights would be fun! D You are way out of my and the RS4's league, but I certainly don't mind losing, even badly. Just promise me that I can get a ride in your car afterwards.

Default lol......

it'll be fun either way. I'll email you about the details once I set something up. Lemme know on your end if you get an RS4 as well. You can get a ride no prob.....perhaps even cockpit it Your email@comcast.net still a good place to reach you?

PS. My car is in SoCal right now.....but hopefully on its way back here soon. It's been awhile since my car has seen good East Coast pump gas......I know it can't wait =)

Default Yup, that's it.

I doubt we'll be joined by anyone else here. But I'm available whenever. Thanks for responding.
