Default RS4 Supercharger

the "other" forum is reporting VF Engineering has/is developing a supercharger application. Bunk?

Default I heard the same thing, but....

VF Engineering is going to need to get their own RS4 for testing. I don't think any owner is willing to guinea pig their engine for testing.

Default As much as I would love the thought of wishing for a semi-affordable S/C

that car will be blown up before it's over. I hate to say that, but I must as that is my gut feeling.

Default God speed to him

forced induction on a high compression engine already putting out 100bhp/liter.

I fear he will get a ticket for littering along with his first speeding ticket.

He should keep a broom and dustpan in the trunk.

I hope I am wrong, but I see bad things happening.

Default Nik @ VF's answer....

<i>"We have successfully supercharged the 12.5:1 compression Porsche 997S with 5.5 psi since 2006.

Our test cars have been dialled up with higher boost successfully. We use the factory PIWIS tool and a GIAC proprietary scan tool which allows us to monitor real time ignition correction for our safety testing. We will be testing the RS4 with similar fervour."</i>

Default I hope they are right here, too.

The RS4 with forced induction would be a monster.


I hope all works out well for him (them).
