RS6 to be 610bhp
- Thread starter Rob_
- Start date
Love Audi's but thats actually quite a decent gain over what the engine in turbo guise is likely giving out without the turbo's.
You cant just bolt 2 turbo's to an engine without drastically changing the internals. Thus reducing power to make it more turbo friendly different compression ratio etc will all rob a bit of power. And theres probably likely to be 1 small turbo giving decent low mid range grunt and 1 big turbo taking over at the top end when the others ran out of puff.

TBH audi are always playing catchup. M power rules the roost
BMW bring out the big power saloons and then audi just waits for a bit to bring out something more powerful.
If the M5 can hit 190mph then that RS6 has got to hit at least 200
Yeah but there is a simple fact you have overlooked.
BMW's look shite.
Audi's look nice.
I just can't stand the looks of the new BMW's. And for me to spend that kind of money on an M series BMW it has to look good....which they dont.

who cares if it can hit 200mph?
how many of you will achieve that anywhere?
i would rather have a car that looks good (audi), handles well (4wd audi) and can get to 60mph in blistering pace (audi). got to remember, its a 4 door saloon that will also weigh around 1800kg i would guess probaly nearer the 2 tonne mark. so for it to get to 60, in under 5 secs say is phenomenal.
guess which i would have??? :rasp:
MKIII 138
non you cant afford one
btw MTM tuning will surley tune to beyond 700bhp ? on a reliable day to day basis thats got to be some serious brakes that thing needs to stop 2 tonnes from 180+ mph !!

I'm loving these huge powered saloons lately! M5's, RS6's, E55's and now the Panamera! Finally the days have came where you dont need an "un reliable" supercar to go mental fast!
BMW M4; S1000 RR
You can say from experience can you ?
The recent BMW's do look frigging awful. There either ugly or just plain dull and boring.
I know there good to drive but I cant spend that kind of money on something if it doesn't look nice too.
The M6 is possibly one of the ugliest cars on the road right now. Awful!

Ever seen/heard/driven an RS4 or R8?
Meh, flying past Clios is hardly 'yawn' material imo

The same experience as you. Sorry I forgot, you'd driven every BMW/M/Alpina ever produced.
