Still can't understand why the remap is like £1500 on them.

1200 for revo.... I agree its expensive but no many people are mapping them so you are kind of limited.

Is that just remap, or is there a bit of hardware for the pulley too?
Sideways yo!

One at the dyno we had did like 450?? Revo map smaller pulley and intake..wow!

Dsg only...good as manual a4s have horrible pedal position for performance driving (imo).
Nice cars though

S4 b8 defo on the list.

Pulley is an extra 50 quid i think.... they call that Stage 1+. Thats the one youd go for really  :driver:

Also, Pendle Performance, Mikko @ Shark and do R-Tec map them?

I have looked into this as I am getting one next. I dont have the balls to get a B7 RS4 as would want to do supercharger upgrade which is too much wonga

boooo, that may expalin why they have not returned my call!

The problem with these is you really want a revision model which only came out on the 12 plate (maybe some Jan/Feb 61 plates too) as they have the flat botton sterring wheel, look better on the outside and are more economical. So looking at £25k+ still for one (avant)

I drove the one that dyno'd at 470hp at SRR.

Feck me it was fast and scary fast in a very linear way that didn't feel fast until you looked at the speedo. :driver:

I would love one but not sure if my pockets are deep enough to run one.

not that bad on fuel Ian if you get a 12 plate onwards? Not like running a v8 surely

My brother had one for a few years, the usual REVO stage 1 and Milly TBE and f*ck me it was EPIC, he has recently got a spanking new S4 Avant Black Edition and that's a whole other level (in my experience from driving both).

The old one (we like red).
