Default VAG, check for codes........MAFs can die very slowly....or very abruptly.

Causing a loss in power. Don't forget the Bypass Valves either. If all else checks out, it could just be that you're getting used to the performance.

Default I gotta say I have the same thing going on..

its a stock S4, when I first got it it felt quick, and still feels like it pulls nice esp. when doing highway kinda speeds, but say in maybe 2nd gear and go I dunno I just dont feel it but the speedo still goes up..

anyway Im sure the remedy to this is just make it faster, a lot of guys have chips and Im REALLY curious to see what a chipped S4 is like but I just need my warantee as everything breaks. Well good luck man you arent alone!

btw Marc911 is right, Ill drive my moms 528i then get into this and see a world of difference, so I could only imagine the Hyundai. Good luck man

That happened with my first S4. Now with a stage 3- is never ever feels slow, maybe too fast.

Default Put fueling in to go to "full" stage III, drive it for 6 months and you'll want even more.......

oh, and there's no such thing as too fast
