Sportec RS550 From Geneva

[Reno]

Ow, i'm starting to understand i think:

It says "Midbased application based on RS4...."
maybe it's for an elise or something, like this one here:

Well sportec is only tuning: seat, vw, porsche, skoda and off course audi..... [img]images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [img]images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

so this lotus thing is not possible, and porsche's engine is in the back, right,....so it's a complete mistery [img]images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [img]images/graemlins/sekret.gif[/img]

I'm really confused guys, Bettonracing is posting a 650bhp RS4 engine detail in a Sportec RS550 thread relating to an RS6? - am I getting close, or am I still going

Hey Andiroo. U're right. After seeing the pics I didn't even go back to check and make sure I had the same car (they look the same?) I just figured it was.
My bad.

Here's the pic that caused the confusion:



I'll check myself next time.
Thanks for keeping me in check.

[Andiroo]

Hey no probs mate, at least I ain't going mad [img]images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Andiroo

[bettonracing]

atleast I ain't going mad

Can't say the same for all of us... [img]images/graemlins/spineyes.gif[/img]

What car is that in the pic above (my post)?

I'm starting to wonder if that dyno chart was just lingering nearby just to be noticed (?).

[Andiroo]

[img]images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]That car is an RS6 modified by Sportec and called an RS550 (550bhp). It's a lot bigger than the RS4 model which is the RS460 [img]images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

What about the chart? It was right infront of the car 'cause that's the only reason I took a pic of the car (no dsrspct but there were WRC cars and F1 cars there as well as other race cars). I tried asking about the car (boost, internal mods, etc) but everybody at the show was either German/French/ Dutch/ all of the above. I'll try emailing Sportec.

just found this picture...what a car!!!

We performed a joint test with the Sportec RS550 and the MTM version and it was published in the June issue of Audi Driver. I accompanied Neil Birkitt when he drove the Sportec back to AMD in Bicester. Having never been in an RS6 of any kind before I was shocked! Forgive my naivity but I am fairly new to the marque and new to the magazine too! I had admired the RS range from afar (as most people do I suspect!) but I must say it was awesome in every respect... here are some piccies...
