Audi S4 gets a thumbs down...
Today I was driving to pick up some lunch with my 6 year old daughter driving conservatively. I am on Route 12, which is a highway with traffic lights every 3-4 miles and I see an Audi dodging between cars behind me. Well we get to one of the aforementioned traffic lights and I see him pull up in the lane next to me with a clear road in front of us. At first I thought it was a plain old A4, but I saw the little "s" badge in the front grill. It was an older model maybe 2000. For a moment I forgot that I had a 6 year old passenger in the back...
So not wanting to get pulled over doing 95 with a child, I realized that it would be a short race to the speed limit. He was inching up before the light turned so I knew he was going to punch it. So I told my daughter to give him the Thumbs down sign when we passed him...As soon as we took off I heard a little laugh from the back seat. Then saw him in the rearview. I shut it down at 60 and he came by with a tumbs up.

But anyway, yeah that guy should've known not to try if he was bone stock. He didn't have a chance against a C32.

Modified B5 S4 or A6 2.7T
Now if you run into a stage 2 B5 S4, a stock C32 will have a hard time beat it. I run an A6 2.7T 6 speed (S4 motor) with around 350 BHP /400ft lb torque, 3600lb and regularly surprise C5, GTO, STi etc. as they have no idea. That's with relatively minor tuning (downpipes, cat-back, K&N GIAC-X chip). Serious S4's run up to 460 hp or more and can run in the 11's.

But anyway, APR, AWE and VF are coming out w/ a SC for the B6 S4 claiming over 450 hp which will be available later this year. That's what I'm waiting for. Here's APR's SC...
