;D
cool vid…those are some big trees. PNW somewhere?
they deffinitly look good on that kind of track.
While I know more then anyone else a dyno isn’t the best tool for telling tail of the tape. This is some dyno footage showing the 605s not doing any better then a hopped up ko4 car.

@Saki Footage is from Pacific Raceways in Kent,Wa.
@Justin What do you mean “that kind of track”? I as well as many others prefer road racing rather than the 1320. If I want to go fast in a straight line i’ll get on the freeway.
As far as the car you posted a video of I have no idea what that has to do with this thread thats showing a friends 605 S4 at the track performing great. You seem to be derailing things here. Lets stay on track. There’s plenty other threads you can go trash the 605’s in.
I think that’s what he means. The Tials seem to love the high end of the tach. They flow crazy up top.
That car in the dyno vid is beautiful. Santorin done right is fucking awesome. There was one for sale around here, and I would have grabbed it if I had a garage spot for it. Nice and low and wide and Santorin and clear cornered…damn nice combo.
ever consider going to the drag strip in your car? It’s nice to have data for comparison purposes and the data we grab off the slip is great for evaluating what the turbos are doing on the track with all the measurements. Will help us beef up our fledgling B5 1/4 mile list too. Can’t seem to get Tial guys to go.
Hell, I’ll kick in $10. I’ll offer that to any of the Tial/AMD/EPL combo cars. First 5 and I’ll paypal them $10 for their timeslips. No joke. Primetime did this on the B8 forum to gather some times up, but he’s much more baller…I think he offered a total of $250!
I was making an attempt to say something nice. The video looked good and It looked like it was performing great on that kind of track.
the dyno was just a refrence. Seems this tial thing is all over the place. looking to get more info out there
@Saki This was a friends car running not mine. I have RS6’s on my car. If you’re so into the B5 and the 1/4 mile why don’t you buy and build one to run yourself? Seems like it would be alot funner for you than sitting on the sidelines hassling everybody to do with their car what you want. Just a thought.
@Justin That was pretty transparent.
cause it’s a proven fact taht V8 rs & s4’s are where it’s at. B5’s only have a chance if you can not let them(the V8’s) get into 3rd!
hassling…hmm…i think I just asked if you would go and offered to pay your gas money lol. Sorry to offend. Good luck with your car!
so rather than some Tial cars going to the strip, I should instead buy one. I will give that some thought!
sexican there are many funnier things you can say than the 3rd gear thing. That was one guy like 6 years ago. Im pretty sure it shouldnt define 2 generations of Audi S4 owners…nor should B5 guys always making lame 3rd gear jokes define that scene.
I made as much power as that guy less hp more tq by a few!
