Detailed RS engine specs anybody?

Post by bettonracing » Thu Apr 03, 2003 9:10 pm

I've been searching for a while and can't find the engine dimensions for these cars. I'm talking in terms of Bore/stroke/revlimit/conrod length/floating? wrist pins/piston c-locks?/valve dimensions/piston design/ etc.
Anybody know where to find these things?

(I'm thinking mainly the RS6 but I also want to know for the 2.7T also). Thanks.

Mmmmmmmm that information will be hard to come by..... maybe a RS6 will be nice enough [img]images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] and get his/her car manual out and post it here for you. [img]images/graemlins/thumbs.gif[/img]

I've had alook through the manual and I can't find engine dimensions anywhere.. nor weight..

I don't suppose that it's the sort of thing that owners want/need to know. I don't even really know where to go for suggestions.

It might be worth phoning or e-mailing Kim Collins at QST?
Cheers

Wicked 505bhp [img]images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
I`d really consider leaving the ABT badges off and keeping it looking 100% standard........ [img]images/graemlins/s3addict.gif[/img] but thats just me! [img]images/graemlins/clap.gif[/img]

My local dealer has got a TT with full ABT gear on it..... so it looks like its gone 100% official....... does this mean they will warranty anything you buy from ABT??? or just the items you buy via your dealership??? [img]images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Abt split their products into 3 groups, something along the lines of
a) Body parts.. alloys wheels etc
b) Supsension upgrades, brake upgrades etc
c) Engine modification.

AS far as I understand it Audi in germany has agreed to cover all 3 groups and cover the warranty. Audi Uk have only just agreed to cover step one.. they are working on steps two and three.. they will come, but in time.

The RS6 chip is therefore sent back to germany to be chipped.. thus Quattro GmBh who do the work, extend the warranty and so we are covered.. not by Audi Uk, but by Audi Germany.. who can ride roughshot over Audi Uk.

Forgive me if I am wrong but that's how it was explained to me.

Cheers
