and again:

there will be NO TURBOS.

whatever your dealer says. whatever you want to have.

NO TURBOS

or do you think the chief engine technician of audi is telling lies?

read this:

NO TURBOS.

Its so sad, Audi's turbo models were very successful and we all love(d) turbos.
I really can not understand why Audi does not listen to the customers. [img]images/graemlins/033102bad_1_prv.gif[/img]
We are the customers and we want turbos.
This was a very big mistake, Audi! [img]images/graemlins/24430-audibash.gif[/img]

So Carl, what you're trying to say is that it will not have any turbos [img]images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

why would Audi go to the trouble of developing a new engine for the S4
I thought that the S4 engine was essentially the same as that used in the allroad. [img]images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

This is the only real benefit other than 4WD that Audi had over BMW was the tuneability of their engines and without Turbos it look far less attractive

Its essentialy the same as is used in the RS6, but sans turbos AND : Chain driven cam shafts from opposite ends and alternator, fuel and water pumps resited to fit. Which it does. Beautifully.

Pop the turbos back on underneath and WALLOP!, Next RS4 [img]images/graemlins/beerchug.gif[/img] [img]images/graemlins/sleeping_2.gif[/img]
