Exciting stuff… Incredible that such a small motor can pump out this performance… Makes me miss my AAN even more… But I’ll be back in a 5 cylinder sooner than later… 
You’re making things up again and looking like an asshole again.
I didn’t say ‘the JHM RS4 will never be surpassed on pump gas’. I said there’s nothing that past or current that touches their time on pump gas and I couldn’t imagine it. Any of the supercharged RS4s for that matter (TTS, AVIVA). That’s still the case…let’s not annoint someone a champion before they run the car at the strip. This isn’t participationmedal.com where the quarter mile list includes logs and pbox. However the built motor car in England looks to be a serious contender.
You also need to remember that
a) this TT hasn’t hit the actual strip yet
b) JHM went 11.34 and beat AVIVA and then stopped telling us anything. You can figure out what that means for yourself. They did this on stock fuelling and stock internals. The TT is a fully built engine with the sink thrown at it. The JHM car has a long way to go. Don’t forget that 11.34 time was run in mediocre DA months ago.
JHM have since added bigger fuel pumps and a smaller pulley. You really think it’s still running 11.34? lol
I said you have to get out more because you said
“I have never seen an Audi move like that”
There are 9 second Audis in Europe
There are multiple 10 second B5 times here in North America.
Yes, you need to get out more. You didn’t mention pump gas. If you meant pump gas, you’re right.
I’m a bit confused… power shifting as I understand it, just means shifting without lifting off the throttle while changing gears using a manual with clutch pedal, which is different to my understanding of a no-lift shifting feature that is programmed into some tunes for certain applications.
Am I missing something? How is power shifting a feature built into a tune?
No you’re dead on SLVRRS4. Auditude called an audible once Arin corrected him.
Didn’t work though.
On the B8 and other new cars you can’t powershift or even quick shift because the ECU will automatically cut timing and fuel… Both APR and GIAC had to change programming and get rid of the shift delay to be able quick shift without having the car cut out let alone full out powershift…
So it is indeed programmed to be able to allow a shift while the gas is fully depressed. My buddies JB4 335i experiences the same issue along with another buddy of mine with a new camaro.
If you know how to powershift correctly it’s the same thing as having a new lift shift program IMO…
Being able to powershift or no lift shift is an advantage either way…
Maybe I should have been more detailed but I was talking about the TTRS since it was on pump gas so I didn’t think to mention it, I should have though…
All the 8 and 9 second Audi’s in Europe are basically dedicated race cars all on race fuel with slicks and no interior and crazy standalone setups… Same goes for most of the B5’s minus JHM’s RS6-R run that went 10.8@130. That was on race gas also.
Ok I agree the TTRS hasn’t run at the strip and your ragging me about quoting a number that hasn’t been verified yet, fine so stop talking about what the RS4 ‘will do’ because as of right now the fastest run was 11.34@122 and that other 11.36@126 run. I can say with confidence that the TTRS will def be in the 10’s and will no doubt run 134+. If it doesn’t ill be shocked. Add race gas and it’ll touch numbers no other new school Audi will ever touch…
FYI Arin, your link to the cylinder head porting isn’t working. You’ve got a “[IMG” on the end of the hyperlink. Edit it off and you’re good.
Just for reference…
A bone stock 2012 GTR in Vegas in +2700 DA ran a 11.264@122.14mph…
This is not a record of any sort just a random 2012 Stock run off the GTR 1/4 mile list…
JHM RS4 ran 11.34@122mph in California and I’m not sure of the DA but I can’t imagine it being much worse.
I’m going to say a stock 2012 GTR in a 1/4 mile standpoint would be a very good run with the JHM RS4 as it was in their 11.34 run.
In the video Arin posted, the TTRS on pump fuel walked a 2012 GTR with a tune and exhaust on pump…
A 2012 GTR on the list with a 93 tune and a AAM Resonated midpipe with all else stock including the tires ran a 10.779@129.22mph in +1200DA in Florida.
I think the way that TTRS pulled on that GTR which has ZERO driver error is proof enough that it can run mid 130’s and 10’s the way it sits in even a shitty DA.
Audtitude, I’m not sure you understands what it takes to run “faster” the faster you get. Running an 11.0 and throwin race gas at a car isn’t going to equate to a 10.0 sec pass. The power you need to propel the car isn’t proportional throughout…it gets harder to go faster when your ready fast.
I like your comment on power shifting correctly…lol it isn’t really rocket science
Your also wrong about the new camaro…it can definitely be power shifted. Maybe you are confused because the new ZL1 actually has a no-lift feature built into the tune.
and your being a tool bag again.
and a stock GTR should crush JHMs RS4
Mid 10s and 130+ in shitty DA…lol whatever dude
Actually, you’ve got that wrong. I am talking about what the JHM car has run and hasn’t told you about it. You are talking about what the TT might do.
I know my buddies camaro has a hard time with powershifting…
I know B8’s will not be powershifted without ECU modifications…
Race gas can make a huge difference especially the power bump were seeing from the APR kit between pump and race…
No where did I saw anything about race gas anyways and how fast it would run on race so that’s irrelevant anyways…
I obviously know it takes more to go faster as you get faster.
Powershifting takes a certain skill, most people can’t do it.
who can’t powershift their car? You just need to time the gear change with a shallow clutch stab and don’t take too long in order to stop revs getting out of hand. There’s not a ton of skill about it. It’s just a matter of whether or not a clutch can handle it.
Ok sakimentalcase.
Sorry, what about that is worthy of calling me a ‘mentalcase’? Are you jspazz light? You get painted into a corner and lash out with that? If this were poker, that would be your tell. Boith of you.

I don’t have any other videos yet. Magazines were on site covering it, and jonny posted a teaser so I think more is coming.
Elevation was 622.51 FT to 606.36 Feet over 1135 Feet in the 30-130, which is a negative grade of 1.421% (0mph was actually at 620 ft).
[quote=“Auditude3.0T,post:111,topic:4580”]
I can power shift my car. : )
So there you go…it was ~15 feet downhill.
That is if we can believe the pbox…could be off by about 10 feet I have found, so it could have been downhill only 5 feet, or as much as 25 feet.
p.s. going from 30-130 in 1135 feet is RETARDED. I think my RS4 took 2000 feet to go 60-130 lol
1.5% downhill will def effect the time slightly…
We can go back and forth all day…
We’ll see what he runs thus weekend at Santa Pod. I have high hopes but we’ll see… If that gtr is running good then the TTRS is def gonna put up some insane numbers…

Not without ECU modifications to fix shift delay
