Strangely enough, I'd just watched this thirty minutes ago.

Have you ever seen a car so badly looked after as that S4.
He said that he'd paid "under £20k" for it from a family member...what is he some sort of philanthropist?
It was minging....I'd have choked at paying £10k for it in that condition.
Looked as if the previous owner should have had a van.

Food for thought though, how an £1100 re-map and it just about held it's own with the RS4?

that is the ultimate stealth machine - how he puts up with the dog smell is beyond me!!

Feck 0-60 in 4.12 well impressed can't wait to get mine now

Forget 4.12, the 0-60 is 3.33 with MRC. See YouTube.

Would you accept a cuppa if offered at the home of the previous owner?
I'd decline saying that I'd "had one last month...." FFS

Good race video.

First, Harris' B8 S4 Avant with BBK and catback vs. B8 Rs4 Avant stock
Then, Harris B8 S4 Avant with REVO tune, BBK and catback vs. B8 RS4 Avant stock

That was in the original link

I have always liked the B8 S4, very stealthy and an awesome difference with the remap! My concern would be whether the gearbox and other transmission features can cope with the extra torque?

Great video, I think Chris comes across really well on all his vids tbh.

shame a minority insist on being idiots.

For me he's the "go to guy" for tests - I'll listen to his opinions before anyone elses.

Original link was to the very wordy story on another website. I was just referring to the race and I'm sure some people like just seeing it in the thread.

Yes he's great at telling us which daily driven four door car is best at drifting.

Useless I think.

As posted on another thread; I suspect if it was a FL S4 and MRC tune the results would be even better than this S4.

I think Harris is a marmite character. His reviews are interesting but there's something about him that seems a bit ... gay?
