Does the car "feel" like that torque curve? If it feels like it pulls hard to the red-line then I call BS on the whole dyno thing. It looks like someone else has said, it runs out of air. Without the front intake getting force fed I can see it not working out. On the road you're going over 100mph f...

feel for you dude... been keeping my eye out for dyno results on here and appears your not alone as alot of cars seem to perform 40-50 bhp down on spec. Really annoying. I still think that rs4's just dont get on with dyno's but thats just me. The power issue is the only thing that has stopped me buy...

gees guys..... you are scaring the bejeasus outa me here...... im in the market for a rs4 but its looking more like ill be sticking with bmw m3s at this rate with all the talks of under powered cars and leaking struts and the like .........give me some good news about rs4s... Just what i was thinki...

I realise i'm stating the obvious but rather than worry about dyno numbers, why don't you guys just hire out a stretch of road, get a load of you together and thrash it out. Forget 320hp or 400hp on the dyno- get some baseline cars ie e46 m3 and a few other cars between the 300-400hp range and have ...

your kidding? I thought Rs4's were 370hp? I'm completely lost now

B7 RS4 kerb weight = 1650kgs = 254hp/tonne (420hp std) 8P S3 kerb weight = 1495kgs = 207hp/tonne (310hp modified) So the RS4 should be noticeable quicker (but like Les said, you will need to use all the revs) But with a bit of MRC magic ----> 8P S3 kerb weight = 1495kgs = 280hp/tonne (420hp upgrade...

What bugs me is that i can accept other cars will be faster than an RS4... this is simply fact and doesnt bother me one bit- there is always something quicker at the end of the day. What i'm finding hard to swallow is if i get rid of my S3 and spend 34k on an RS4 (i do really like the car) i want it...

sorry just specifying it wasnt a saloon (maybe a little heavier??). Nothing against your avant though- looks amazing especially with those RS6 rims!!

That looks fantastic. WOW, cant believe how good that looks! suits the car perfectly

Managed to get hold of an Rs4 for an hour from my local dealer (albeit an avant)- Was sitting on the fence reading posts on here about power issues and speed etc, been watching some videos on utube as well. Finally got hold of one for an hour and managed to have a couple of totally unscientific blas...

Same engine i guess and same weight, something doesnt add up here...

Well............. We nipped out on some private road earlier this week. It was dry, and sunny - till it got dark. And the verdict..........I need a new clutch, new disc and pads and djcevo has been home about half an hour!!! We played for about 45 minutes, with the following results: Straight Line:...
