RS4 is slow for the money my stage 1 cupra at the time was as quick in the damp coming off a roundabout. Stage 2 plus and it doesnt stand a chance.

I think I met the owner of this car at audi drver international. He spent some time on the track, and his car seemed to do really well.

I know 300bhp is very rare from a Ko3, but if it was genuine then I could quite believe that it would give an RS4 a headache, especially if the driver aint great..

the only thing different between carls and this guy car is that heath Robinson intake and SFS discharge/charge hoses.

carl is using evoms and neuspeed discharge and charge pipes.  you can be pretty certain it isnt worth 43Hp difference over carls.  280hp is widely regarded as the highest output you will see on k03 and thats with all the trimmings and garnish work.

i think as carl said earlier, this guy must be talking about the older model RS4 bi-turbo, either that or hes talking poo

Bacilius' car is very close to 300bhp (has made it on some rollers). Made 294bhp & 330lb/ft on RS Tuning's DD rollers back in July and is a very strong car..

but there is something strange about that though, as thats on the std intake as well. although he has done in on multiple rollers, so who knows, maybe just a lucky engine.

I can show you a very scary Stage 2 graph on a K03.


This was Fishface's before Revo developed the 2+ code. The reason for the quite high figures was that it was operating outside the normal map parameters and hence why 2+ was developed to reign things in a bit.

Apparently it was quite quick as well.  :wink:

the eraly revo stage 2+'s seem to have beenaround that region of power, however it seems revo have reigned them back even further with their newer versions of the code aws they dont seem to be breaking the 270hp barrier ojn JKMs rollers any more

Surely a mildly fettled b5 rs4 is quicker than the v8 rs4?
