HAAAAAAAAAAAAAALEEEILUUUUJAAAAHHH....

Doubt it will be K04... look at the new S3 - that has a "large" turbo that already runs "high boost" & is high CR - I expect the S4 will be the same... not so great for modding, still great fun and direct competition to the 335i which is great. Can't wait to drive one

supercharging, not likely, they're prob going back to v6 from v8 to show some effort to the greens they're working on the big autobahn cruisers, and sneakily sneaking in some turbo's thank you audi :)))

Good news... larger exhaust side then?

My crystal ball shows I may own another Audi in the future after all. Lets hope my tubular manifolds, FMIC and other such gubbins can bolt on... could RS6 turbos.... mmm.

Is it me or does it look seriously like a 3-series?

OK I know its 4wd, but it's going to need more than 45bhp difference or whatever to 'see one off' ...in the dry.

BUT the benefits are that in an Audi you get indicators that work and you are likely to be let out of side roads by other road users :D
that wont stop the tdi quattro owners from driving up everyone's back side, giving the rest of us a bad name
