Do we know what rpm and boost levels these cars are both running.
Also it’s nice to see the strip results for this past week. Out of pure interest what did the big kit run the first time at the track and what has changed since then?
No information being shared on that yet. Rumours? Plenty
low boost = 9-10 PSI (from the car owner RS4per)
high boost = 15+ PSI (from the kit designer, posted on the forums)
Strip results on the 1.0 car were confirmed as low 12s by a couple of guys who saw the car…however the owner of AMD sent me a profanity and insult laced PM message that claimed they matched APR’s 11.8 but went 121 MPH
RPMs = 8700 RPM according to the owner of AMD if I’ve interpreted this right (stock rev limiter is 8200)

Sorry I think your misunderstanding me here, the cars as they stand are not 10 second cars. No chance but doing the things I mentioned then I reckon they will safely go into the 10’s. imo they’ve not beat my record saki they stripped the car doesn’t matter by how much but in my eyes its defeats the purpose as you say. I could have done all the stuff I listed but didn’t see any point as the car was my DD. a lad in Manchester now owns it, rather ironic actually. I sold my rs4 to him after he’s just sold his gtr and I’ve went the other way
Also raised rev limit? Sounds like they’ve really had to ring the shit out the car to achieve their time where as I was hardly stressed
Yeah, the raised rev limit sounds kind of weird. Maybe I just misunderstood the guy selling the kit.

I agree as I ssid. These are not 10 second cars. Sure the amd car was stripped down a bit and after thinking abkut it and talking to some people im not sure we know just wyat they had to do.
What makes mo sence to me is this…the csr is just loud comment…thats one of the single dumbest things ive heard…if you put a 3inch dp and a 2.5 catback on 4 rs4 cars they are all going to sound the ssme…its not like your going to get one car that is … just louder then the others…makes no sence but either do 90% of lies the amd crew tell…its hard to keep track of thrm all…the car in thr video seemed way to loud to have what they clsimed…maybe dumps or maybe more was removed from the car then we have been told…
Any news yet on tyres or fuel etc?
Thats another thing with amd…they have been cought liying so mamy times you never know…they had a b5 that they keep claiming was 93 when it was 93+ some absene amount of methonal…who knows with them anymore. …I would just say scratch the importance of it and give em props for thr 11.4
They claimed 92 fuel
They claimed Dunlop direzza street tires.
If you think they ran with no catback, just watch the video on a good computer…you can see probably.
I don’t know why the video was muted for the first 30 seconds…that would be interesting to hear.
What’s with the epic amount of blue grey smoke coming out of the RS4 at 1:37??? And no that’s not tire smoke or burnout smoke. It’s from the RS4. Did they do a diesel swap?
Interestingly, I noticed this on one of the dyno videos too…if it’s the same car
May have another engine pull for ‘oil leak’ coming up lol.
Best part about this? Jason@AMD was trash talking JHM because their development car, an RS4 JHM actually owns, had its motor pulled. As part of JHM’s normal development process they push the car, then tear it down to see how it held up. I guess this is a concept foreign to AMD, what with them practicing on owner’s cars (woodi, RS4per). Anyway, Jason kept making snarky comments about how his kit is running great and no smoke! (a reference to the JHM car). His theory was that they blew the motor with their supercharger. The funny thing is he PMd that to me as if it would be bad for JHM lol. I just told him what would be surprising about that? They blew 3 motors on the California B6 S4 while developing their supercharger, and blew a motor on their Detroit B6 S4 while developing the turbo kit. That’s what they do…test on their cars, not ours.

Launch Control. Throttle Wide open, full enrichment + under boost, Cut Spark.
It does it on the short blip, and then the extended RPM set point.
That 10s period of silence leading up to staging is the camera man laughing.
Per posted the service records of the oil leak repair. Hopefully its been put to rest.
