Default Tuning potential

I know the S4 2.7lt V6 Twin turbo is essentailly the same unit used in the RS4 but what are the differences responcible for the power hike? and what can you tune the S4 engine to with reasonable money say £500-600?

the RS4 has many differences, like larger turbos and increased fueling to start with. Have no idea what that is in american dollars, but i would imagine a nice multi-program chip for that amount of money

For about $1000 US...chip and exhaust (300-320HP)if you don't get spare ECU, but most will say STFA.

Default One of the better S4 upgrades... close to RS4 numbers...

There's more that can be done. Search the rest of the AWE site for other RS4 parts.<ul><li><a href="http://www.awe-tuning.com/pages/shared/part_detail.cfm?PMaI=1&amp;PMoI=4&amp;PEI=6&amp;PP =s4_27t_drivetrain.cfm&amp;PPT=Drivetrain&amp;IL=r sk04">http://www.awe-tuning.com/pages/shared/part_detail.cfm?PMaI=1&amp;PMoI=4&amp;PEI=6&amp;P
