Apparantly the RS6 engine has been tested upto 1000bhp!! and seems to be Ok with it.... [img]images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

Trouble is that the gearbox (tiptronic) cannot get close to that sort of power beacuse it will just strip..

Interesting developments ahead [img]images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
