02 CLK 55 AMG,09 C63 loaded with P30
I cannot believe the first post I put on this board after buying an E550 is about this but I stumble along this thread and cannot resist. 3-4 years ago I had an 01 S4 with chip and exhaust and I took a CLK55 pretty easily; let alone a C36. It was a 13 second car with just chip and exhaust. That car was awesome off the line if launched properly. I would not call bs necessarily, but the S4 was definitely not chipped. It also could have been tip or launched really poorly, because they can bog it not launched properly...
Btw, the E550 is awesome!

Absolutely, went down to CT to pick up some wheels with my friend. The owner selling the wheels had his S4 on the dyno (met up at a tuning shop). His '01.5 S4 was putting down 425hp/450tq at the wheels! Amazing potential with those 2.7T engines.

Nope.
Feel free to remove the chip from your shoulder at any point.
Chicago- the X5 is wifie's. You'd be grateful it was AWD were you ever on the same road as her. It's people like her that give Korean girls their reputation on the roads

I almost have some big car related news to announce. Just got back from the dealer and rather excited. I wasn't going to say anything until I have finalized the deal but you know how that is. Over the next two weeks things should be sorted and I will of course post pictures.
Lets just say Wifie's Cayenne is on hold...the clue is in my sig.
Stephen- rofl at your "tecnhical term" comment. (which also brings things back on topic)
Well, it's another warm night and I'm gonna break out the Corona and chuck some steaks on the bbq. Laters guys.

95 Audi urS6 Quattro
I'd race him if my shop had any stockish S4's around, but as of right now. Theres a Stage 3 S4, and a Stage 2 S4, and then my A4 with a blown turbo. The only stockish S4 hasn't had its clutch broken in yet =/.

Maybe this will put what the B5 S4 can do into perspective. When I had my C5 Z06, it had about 375HP to the rear wheels with the bit of stuff I added onto it. I believe this was a very very fast car...375HP at the wheels with 3116 lbs of weight.
I had a friend with a 2000 B5 S4 that was stage 2+ and had well over 100,000 miles on the clock. We hit it from 40 on, both in the proper gears. I pulled maybe 3/4 to a full car length on him up to 100 with both of shifting properly (not expert, but not missing either). That car was pretty damn fast.
Now, what kinda mods can I do to the E550 to get more juice?

ML320, Looking for my S4
hmmmmm I have a Lightly modded s4 and I know i can take down that CLK55 of yours.
Mods. Intake, Chip, Diverter Valves.
No exhaust work. No weight savings. and I know I can take down that CLK of yours
Wad'ya say Jon

FWIW, just a ECU flash, GIAC for example, puts an additional 70-80hp and 80-90tq at the crank. Looking at around 320hp/340tq, 3500lbs. Not too far off from the 5.5, 342hp/376tq, 3700lbs.

a GIAC+intake s4 would be have at most 250awhp with a peaky torque curve. they weigh 3700+lbs (check any audi forum).
btw, i raced my brothers GIAC tuned s4 and won. i easily pulled away from him when my car got traction.
so you would know how fast the W208 amg are. i raced a tuned STI (400hp) and won. i had 2 passengers (380 extra lbs) and he was by himself.

When my CLK 55 spins its all season tires at 30mph on rough pavement you know its got monster lowend torque. Topend is no joke where the turbo 4 runs out of steam. Hey Tommy lets head out to E-town.

Well, I'm not running a giac. I'm running a custom SSP chip. Giac gives you 18lbs of boost I'm at 27-23. I also just killed a C55
