Wow,
Good job for such a heavy car, as far as wheels and everything go.
GIAC/AWE tune is MOVING!
Very quick. Haven’t seen any tuned APR S5s run yet. Will be interesting to see how they stack up.
p.s. holy modlist

That’s not going to fit in our list. Although lots of it is fluff. Are the wheels light? I reckon they must be lighter than peelers which are around 30 lbs. The Brembo GT kit…are the rotors lighter than stock?

The only relevant mods are GIAC Stage 2, Intake, Catback with Downpipes, ColdFront, DSG flash
Wheels are about equal or maybe a slight bit heavier than the Stockers. Front brakes are also very close to stock weight- maybe 2-3lbs total at most…
Those wheels are 24.5lbs/corner.

Tires are 25.6
My dads peelers weigh 51.3lbs with 255 OE tires.
With LW wheels and rotors this car would go 11.7 on pump
Props to AWE/GIAC… Awesome car and awesome time!
Anyone know the overall weight of a S5 vs S4? I would think it’s slighly lighter with 2 less doors but probably wrong…
Pete, The 380MM Brembo’s are 8 lbs overall lighter than the stockers(41 vs 33)but about 3.5 lbs lighter rotor the rest is the carrier, caliper, etc…
but it wouldn’t look as blingtastic!
49lbs a corner is solid at this level. Stock is probably 57-58.
Wow! My peelers with sport maxx GT 255’s were 59lbs! Shit my BBS CHR’s with 245’s are 48 lbs… I guess I don’t have “LW” after all!
Dunlops are bricks- Conti a lot lighter. My dads 17’s are 48lbs as well
They hinted the Q5 (Which doesn’t look to be an SQ5) was the 12.5@110. Damn…
Last time I checked 25.6 and 24.5 is 50.1 not 49 lol since you like to to suttle jabs all the time.
But like you said with Mistros LW rotors, all this is negligible
According to motor trend S5 weights about ~200-300lbs more than an S4
Dunlops weigh 5lbs more each than the Contis according to tirerack
Sure you do. Just not FW (featherweight)
that’s a familiar timeslip. Guess I need a tune.
not sure why it’s damn though…it’s the same engine…same blower, which is being maxed out. The Q5 weighs what…4400 lbs? About 300 more than S4. That’s right where it should be really. It’s making probably 475 hp and 460 tq. That’s nuts.
It probably weighs closer to 4500lbs- wheels weigh around 65-70lbs each and it’s as aerodynamic is a brick… Also not a DSG and no LC
FW I guess would be the wheel setup of the APR 104 tune RS4?
24 for the wheels and 25 for the tires = 49 to me. Fractions, sure have fun. I guess they’re brand new 1 day old tires and not worn down. Oh wait they have 10,000 miles on them and are down 3/16" there’s a pound or two.
Very strange this obsession. It makes sense now though…now we know why you’re running off to the track on pump gas every 2 days…it’s because Mistro went 12.21 in his RS4 on pump.
Heaven forbid he should run catless and with no headwind. Will you cry if he goes faster? Should we ask God to edit your user account so Mistro’s timeslips don’t show up?
what did they weigh? is that the APR RS4 that went 10.6 @ 130?
I believe Dan’s RS4 went 10.7 @ 130 on his street wheels/tires. They’re quite light.
Looking forward to your car going 10.5 @ 130+ I guess.
those sound like lots of guesses purporting to be facts…let’s get some real numbers down
Q5 weight from motortrend - 4336 lbs
coefficient of drag from a few sites - 0.33 (for perspective a B7 RS4 is 0.31)
wheels and tires…I will let you find that. I’ll be shocked if it’s over 61 lbs. They’re not super wide, and sidewall doesn’t weigh much relative to tread. The 20" wheels probably weigh around 30 lbs each…and the tires are what…27-28 if they’re conti sport or michelins?
