Nice signature, anything to do with the 1979 Le Mans winners?

I'd have one as soon as its released, but would only take it if it was done in Germany by MTM themselves.

No trust in QST whatsoever, based on experience.

So much for the rumored 630HP! Still, if I was to buy another Audi this would be the route I would go. Think the RS5 is the best option though ;o)

Engine bay sounded really noisy from the front at the start of the clip?

if it does 0-125 is 11 odd seconds, what does that say about the 1/4mile time!!

I am surprised that this car can do 0 - 200kph in 11 ish seconds with an increase in horsepower of around 120 PS. That is a sustantial improvement on the standard car's time of around 17 seconds. It equates to a reduction in time of about 30% for an increase in power of about 30%. These things don't work linearly like that, in the same way that a doubling of top speed requires a cubed effect on power i.e. 2 times speed requires 8 times (2 cubed) power, I was under the impression that the reducing of acceleration time was inversely proportional to a fourth power of torque rather than power. Am I totally misinformed or have I missed something here.

I don't doubt the car is massively quick and I would love one, it's just the numbers.

Agreed... a time like that would suggest a LOW 11s/10 sec 1/4 mile. My B5 is lighter and naturally quicker... at 500HP runs low 12's... questionable figures.

As far as I'm aware, the kit will not really be released. A bird told me that the engine isn't happy in the long term.
