<center><img src="http://www.sportec.ch/de/aktuell/img/LLK_RS41.jpg"></center><p>Just curious if they have a good rep for their tuning products.

Although they look a little pricey...just curious how they compare to other Euro-tuners like Abt, MTM, Forge, etc

I'd love to get my hands on those RS4 IC upgrades....I just can't justify 6900 SwissFranc (~$5100 USD) <a href="http://finance.yahoo.com/m5?a=6900&s=CHF&t=USD">Swiss Franc to US Dollar converion</a>

Default Did a 1st grader write that website?

Okay, I read the info they put up on the RS4 intercooler upgrade. Most of it reads like something Smellsogood would post here. They need someone who speaks proper english to work on that site.

Sidenote, looks like it's an intercooler upgrade for an RS4. So I'd imagine they're rather large intercoolers.

Default It probably has to do with translation from German, French or Italian...Those are the three

major languages in Switzerland...it's mostly Germanic, 10% French, and Italian is 3rd with 1-2%.

I went to Switzerland for my honeymoon....Amazing country. Cleanest Country in Europe.

Default Heheheheheheh. :D

Anyway, the IC's won't fit without an RS4 body conversion (you have that partially covered).

Default I gotta go back.....and the Swiss rail is the only way to travel!

we hit Lucern, Lugano, Matterhorn (Zermat), St Moritz, Geneva, and a few other locations....

The trains were ALWAYS on time....every clock in the country was accurate +/- 10 seconds...every public toilet was CLEAN (unlike other European countries we visited - ie Italy)...and everyone was friendly - unlike the French =)

I can't want to go back!

i have been to france several times and it is pretty cool.

italy and greece rock, but i must be partial to my french heritage. ha ha ha just kidding. my last name would give away the fact that having a french heritage is so not true.

We took that train ride too.
