I’m skeptical that a B5 S4 hits 100 mpg in third gear. If it did that’s a weird choice for a small displacement engine with small turbos making 260 hp. Must have felt dog slow up top in the bigger gears.
Maybe that is why the B6 third gear looked so good comparatively lol. It maxed third at 90 mph at the top of third with an extra 80 hp.
Hmm my logs seem to show around 7000+ RPMs so I’m not sure what’s up with that graph.
Okay I logged again with MPH…
In 3rd gear, my 2013 S4 with 6MT and 255/35/19 tires (about 5000 miles on them):
0.0134 MPH per RPM
4200 = 56.28 MPH
6500 = 87.10 MPH
My old B5 S4 with 6MT and 235/40/18 tires (not sure on life, though):
0.0138 MPH per RPM
4200 = 57.96 MPH
6500 = 89.70 MPH
Interestingly, it doesn’t fit with the MarkP link I posted. My B5 trapped 122 MPH in the 1/4 FWIW.
Do you have your B5 timeslip? I can add you to our list if you’re not already there…
edit: already have you there. However it’s not 122.
ather B5 S4 2.7T Manual 98 VAST Milltek/Milltek Dual K04 11.86 113.66 1.62 VAST MAF, RS4 airbox/intake cams, ER SMICs, (limp mode 3-4 shift)
LOL the limp mode run. Yeah I have a bunch in the 120s somewhere. Even have one night on video on YouTube. Also have the limp mode run on YouTube. Don’t really care about the list anymore. Never even ran again after I got water/meth. Probably could’ve pulled an 11.5.
Anyway the MPH vs RPM difference shows that what people told me about it being the same was wrong.
If you ran the times, post the slips.
I looked where I thought my stack of slips was, but they weren’t there and I’ve moved twice since then, so I’m not looking anymore… In case you’re questioning my claims, here’s a video of some runs when I had a couple friends with me that recorded the runs… it shows the result board after one of the runs anyway. The car got faster after that with water/meth, a retune or 2, etc.
