drivetrain losses don’t matter if we’re talking wheel horsepower. You guys dyno’d around 480 hub hp…which would be around 470 wheel horsepower. The Benz should be good for a solid 450-470 WHP. Similar there. Weight being the biggest difference (and torque…the Benz’ torque is likely around 50 wtq stronger down low (at the start of the pull)
tough to say. Tuning a 2.7T RS4 and picking up gains is not the same as tuning a 4.2 that has had a supecharger added to it.
Even then, their 2.7T cars don’t seem to light the world on fire. Are there any fast 2.7T MRC times? I couldn’t find any better than 12 seconds at Santa Pod.
Here’s an MRC tuned B5 S4, stage III car. Wasn’t even close to the SC B6 (except for when the B6 waited for him to catch up).
i remember all the hopes and dreams they promised you. i didnt want to say anything but i knew they were full of it. i believed the tune and headers and all, but they also told you ITB’s which is when i thought to myself, this company should just stick to c63’s lol.
I must have missed that whole thing. I was probably not allowed to talk about/think about RS4s back then because RS4power said so (since I only owned an S4)
