RS246.com Forum :: The World's #1 Audi R, S and RS Enthusiast Community

Hi all, I just joined this forum today after months of looking at it!!
I currently have a 2001 Audi s3 which I'm hoping to change very soon.
It is the 210 bhp model with Amd remap to 249bhp.
I am thinking about getting an s4 next!
Is there a real difference in the s3 & s4 as I would probably get bored quickly if it isn't a very different car as I usually last about 8/9 months before wanting a change but would now like to get a car which I'll keep a lot longer!
What should I be looking at getting in an s4?
I want a saloon, preferably facelift model in noggy blue but not bothered as long as I get a good example with some nice performance mods.
If anyone knows of such a car for sale anywhere in the Uk please let me know,

Thanks in advance
Mark

I followed a similar route. Used to have a Leon Cupra R with 286bhp, then went to an Evo VIII with 383BHP, now have a 320bhp/375lbft S4 Avant.

The S4 is quicker than the Cupra R was, and overtaking is its speciality.

Also you find on here that not many people buy the AMD figures as their not exactly accurate, you need to be talking to a gent call Doug from MRC for all Audi needs.

The previous owner had the car Amd remapped at Jabbasport and I also have the rolling road printout which shows 249 bhp but I know what your saying I've heard some bad things about Amd.
I'm just hoping I can get a car that I'll keep as I'm getting sick of constantly changing cars!!
I'm also considering at a stretch... gettting a B6 4.2 s4
Which is the better s4? cost/performance wise?

If you get bored of your cars quickly get a B5 S4, there is much more scope on what you can do to it when compared to the V8 S4. The 2.7 should also be better on fuel when light footing it.

You could get an S4 and remap it with a full exhaust and gut the precats and get to nearly 350bhp, when your bored of that, you can K04 it and with extra mods see 500bhp on standard internals.
