A Question?

Post by Iain » Wed Feb 25, 2004 3:39 pm

As power to weight ratio is an indicator of performance, I was wondering what is the difference in the power:weight ratio of a Std RS4 compared with an MTM Stage 3 RS4?

At a guess 238 bhp/ton for the standard RS4 and 287 bhp/ton for Stage 3 MTM (458Bhp. This was based on weight of 1,620 kilos

I have the same problem. Wife is "Always" trying to steel it. I gave her my old Stage 1 A4, but now that isnt enough, and she wants the RS4.

on the flip side, it does make justifying the $$ easier.
