S6's are a much better car than the RS.
Reliable, NA throttle, grt soundtrack, no drc or box woes.
Enjoy!

Same motor that's in the B6/7 S4, aren't there better mods than listed above? A supercharger must be one of the better mods, ne?
The only thing that's 'the same' as the b6/7 S4 is the cylinder and displacement numbers iirc. It's an entirely different motor.

S4 is a shorter, timing chain 40 valve 4.2 and the s6 has a timing belt. The list of differences is quite long so unfortunately modifications don't exactly translate. The s6 and s8 are closest related and the s8 has loads of improvements including the intake manifold. As for supercharger I haven't seen a kit other than the one in the first video below. That was a 2.1 kenne bell blower... And it was insane. That was one of the founders of vast in Detroit... His own car. He made that for fun. He now helps jhm out but works for ford svt full time. Very interesting guy.

OP have you contacted jhm? They took over the vast x6 4.2 program and have a bunch of things that might help you out.

Not sure. Only 2mm thicker will make a difference though.
