Oh you mean something that Fast Intentions built? Last time I checked it said Fast Intentions and not aviva…
If Aviva is trying to take credit for anything he helped with more than doing exactly what he was told to do when making the exhaust manifolds from the Mock up that FI built and nothing more I am sure Tony and Danny at FI wouldn’t take too kindly to that at all…
Not sure who you are but Jon from Aviva said he said he worked very closely with Fast intentions for months on developing the kit???
Sounds like a lot more than a manifold.
Funny how they never mentioned it once on their post…
Oops… Someone got muzzled
Both #00001 and Pers cars will be dyno’d on a local 3rd party duno Friday, and will be going to the strip (weather permitting) Saturday. Hopefully this will help with the info. Lets keep this thread clean and on topic.
It’s never good to announce a dyno visit… I’m sure myself and some other members will be anticipating the results and to be honest I would love to see another supercharger take the RS4 into the 11s.
Oh there was the one car. I thought one got done in Seattle and one in cali. My confusion.
Anyway Saturday… What track? Should we call youtube to come down and film it?
Any other info on the tvs kit ? Pes going with whipple . How far along are they ?
Anyone going with decomp plates or de-stroking crank ?
No info and nobody has mentioned doing that. Just you.
This is a serious question…Why would you want to decrease the stock compression ratio? Just to run higher boost and octane? I thought that was more of a turbo motor thing…or going NA to turbo.
I just don’t see a point if the JHM RS4 is making great power on 93 with low boost. I’m sure when they push the motor further and beef up the bottom end they will change the comp ratio with the stroke over plates. Also, with the motor being FSI I’d bet that may increase the max boost that can safely be run, the worry of detonation and knock, and safe tuning, have a lot to do with the fueling system and capability too.
took some time to think it out a few years back . that combination yielded best results on paper .
ON PAPER lol
Cause you could then take advantage of the head geometry (same as 2l tfsi) and de-stroke to 10.5:1 which is how the stock 2l tfsi goes to 350 hp on stock internals .
Stupid question: how is the bottom end rebuilt on our cars? As I understand it, sleeves aren’t an option and there’s only a small distance between cylinders.
That’s where the challenge lies.
Nikasil works and has been done.
Re-alusil is not impossible. I sourced a few shops that did nikasil onto alusil blocks. Porsche 944 guys. Ran ok up to 1.5 bar. Dunno about structural integrity of the bns block at that pressure though.
our cylinder walls like almost all audi cylinder walls, are 5.5 mm at their thinnest. Sleeves would have to either be 1.5 mm with the cylinders honed/bored out to accommodate them… Which would leave 2.5 mm walls also known as insanity.
Or you could give up displacement, probably ending up at about 3.8 L
It would still be a pretty huge leap. There’s one company working on this who will pave the way for the platform but until then we will all stand around guessing. Most people are content to work within the confines of the rs4 motor’s power limits…which look to be 550+ whp.
Frankly going much beyond that becomes an exercise in showcasing…it is hardly a daily driver’s four door sedan goal. Look around. The guys who push much beyond 550 whp in just about any platform start to become guys who talk about their cars more than they actually drive them because they are either being worked on or are broken and waiting to be worked on. Those guys are nice for magazine articles and photoshoots, but I want a car I can drive still.
Deleted posts ftw, truth hurts I guess.
nothing was deleted jibby/padrino/snowtrooper

It was moved to the war room since it had nothing to do with the rs4 superchargers
Back on topic, we were told above by mjackson@amd that there were independent dyno numbers and dragstrip passes to be made Friday and Saturday respectively. Anyone know how that went?
Probably not very well or they would have posted a teaser thread while at the track. I hope one of the “crew” chimes in soon with relevant performance info instead of blind arguments. It would be exciting to see another RS4 in the mid 11s
