Last weekend i got absolutely smoked by an RS4. It left me absolutely standing!! and i was not shy with the loud pedal either.

It's acceleration was amazing. Yes it had had some work done to it i could hear that [milltek etc.....] but i could not believe just how must quicker it was from 60 upwards than my 6, much faster throttle response in entire rev range!!!

registration was **MEE- RS4 saloon Silver.

Makes me want to save up and have a bit of work done @ MRC. Can't have it happen again.

Was it a B5 or a B7?

Edit: Oops, just saw 'saloon'. Ignore me ;)

It must have some kind of forced induction to blow you away like that

Steve Smee's? car, he has a silver RS4 saloon that was at ADI, just guessing due to the number plate....

His B5 RS4 had something mental like 850ps!! and was featured in Redline last year.

Yes that was the one.
850ps!! I don't feel so bad now.
It was truly impressive and sounded amazing.

Found the spec on another forum

MRC front mounted intercooler
3" milltek catless downpipes with milltek cat back
H&R arbs with MRC brackets and rs2 droplinks
Bilstien Pss9`s coilovers
movit front and back brakes
MRC remap
Hybrid k04 turbos

All the above was more than enough.

Hold on, if it was a saloon that blew you away, it couldn't have been a B5 RS4.

I think what Dave is saying is that he had a B5 but now has a B7 with unknown mods.
