Re: Audi S6 top speed

MTM says 272 kmh. I have run up to 270-271 (no limiter in my car), probably 260something real speed.

May-be MTM figure is for sedan, which has lower Cd ?

Re: Upgrades

I think S6 in stock form is very nicely balanced package and there isn't much you can do performance wise, without spending serious $$$. I would leave it stock and this is what I have done with my car. Sure, I have another car, which I'm modifying , so I still can burn my cash, what would be life wi...

Re: My 1/4 Mile race against 600HP Supra (Video)

Supra does always have very lousy start, due to their rear suspension setup. Mid-high 10 sec. cars w. 630-650 rwhp., running 135-140 mph trap speeds are common, beacuse they usually never achieve better than 2,0 60-ft. Normally with such trap speed, you should run at least mid 9's. So if you can ach...

Re: Does stock RS4 have (operational) speed limiter ?

Standard RS4 is limited to 170mph. At 155mph its still pulling hard! Sorry, I'm so lazy that I just now did check "official" data.:) Here it says 250 kmh: http://www.audiworld.com/news/00/geneva/index_rs4.html and same here http://www.s-cars.org/rs4/Tech/tech.html So that 278-280 must be without li...

Re: Does stock RS4 have (operational) speed limiter ?

Now I'm confused, is RS4 limited to 170 mph or is it limited to 155 like most German cars and can do 170 when limiter is removed [img]images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] I have read the stories from internet (audiworld) that when you hit the limiter first time it works, but is deactivated thereafter...

Re: Does stock RS4 have (operational) speed limiter ?

Yes it does and will only go to 170 MPH when de activated

Only 170 ? I did assume it can do appr. 180 mph. S6 can do appr. 167 mph. and has less power and larger frontal area.

Does stock RS4 have (operational) speed limiter ?

My experience with several S cars is, that 100% stock cars do not have speed limiter. Is it the same with RS4 ?

Re: S6 to RS4 ?

You obviously have never driven an RS4 [img]images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] jr No I haven't, yet... But I have driven many cars as fast or faster than RS4 and even own one which is as quick as RS, so I can imagine the performance. I will be test driving it next week, if weather conditions are favou...

S6 to RS4 ?

Hi to everybody here, it's my first post although I have been reading this message board for a while. I'm not English speaking, so excuse my probably bad grammar. I do own currently 2001 S6 Avant w. 6-speed manual, bought it year ago and haven't had much trouble since - except coolant leak because o...
