1ST WITH MTM SUPERCHARGER ON B7 RS4

Post by **PhilT** » Wed Dec 20, 2006 3:12 pm

Anyone who has just spent £15k on an upgrade of a £60k car is obviously going to be a bit busy earning the money to pay for it........ It baffles me why people don't spend the time to do their own research.

A few minutes on Google, and you get the following:

I wonder why they have blurred out some of the exhaust in the underside photo?

so many questions, also was anything removed to fit the supercharger.

need imput

I would guess he is using the stock motronic system that MTM tuned

Post by **tartan_rob** » Thu Dec 21, 2006 1:45 pm

Same wheels as me....!

Post by **CliveH** » Thu Dec 21, 2006 3:34 pm

Yes, they're nice Rob, and I think much nicer than the RS4 B7 ones.

but just wanted to share this with you.

I am just back from Germany from a MTM base.

I am believed to be the first person to have a supecharger fitted.

Although I have been advised to take it easy for the first 1000 miles, I can say that it makes a huge difference to the power of the car.

The car feels more responsive. (not that it wasnt before the charger.

Interesting if you can back your claim.
I found out through Kim that MTM haven't even finished their own car yet, nevermind a customers car !

Just to add up what I've learned from MTM (both Germany and Greece shops). The Germans wouldn't post any data on the specs of the kit since they want to run more tests (so they said and I have no reason to doubt that)
The MTM guy in Athens told me that they already have 4+ kits here for customers that want it(!! 4 RS4s out of ... the very few in Greece anyways!!) Anyway, the specs is the same as MADRS4 posted.
580 HP, torque 60++ kgm.Oh, the turbo pressure is around 0.6 Warranty? He told me that they will cover the same years (2?) as AUDI and if I have purchased the 2-year extension from AUDI they will back it up as well!!
Mind, this is stage I as he said. The beast can go to stage II at 670 HP (or something huge) but at that point they'd have to change parts of the engine (pistons for example). Not to mention, suspnsion, brakes etc.etc..
Anyways the cost he gave me for the kit was 14-15K € (not GBP! Euros!) Anyways... this is all I got and I think that a kit like this to the beast is a bit ... well .. too much I think. (my point of view!!)

I would wait for a couple of years before trying anything so radical on the engine! It's not a cheap car (especially for Greece -> 96,000 euros base price .. OUCH!!)
