RS4 doesn't really need a HP bump. It needs a TQ bump and some wieght reduction.

Default Good luck on the weight reduction!
we all would love to see that, but they'd have to get serious about using a lot of lightweight and expensive materials throughout.

Default amen to a tourque bump....
with the current setup i find that you really have to be in the right gear to feel any pickup...

my friends CLK550 'feels' faster and thats definitely due to tourqe

Default Yeah, ditto on the torque bump. +50 lb/ft to +80 lb/ft would be welcome!
hell, i'd even trade horsepower for torque now.
