haven’t watched this in a while. It’s not that ridiculus actually.

That car was my B7 S4 that went 12.99@ 107. My RS4 is definitely quicker in bone stock form.
That B8 S4 is a good running one…one of the fastest B8 S4s on earth now a days. This was before he had the pulley though. It really wasn’t murdering my S4 but it sure won easily. For further perspective the same night he raced a stage III B5 S4 (VAST, frankenturbos, full exhaust, ER SMIC, avant) and the B5 beat him every time. That B5 is the car that got annhillated by the supercharged RS4 with the count vohn tune and the TVS1320 blower.
So I guess I see where RS4tony is coming from. Auditude is just a bit of a mouthpiece, but in a pull sure a tuned B8 S4 should beat an Rs4 but it’s not going to be a disaster. I bet I could stay within 2 car lengths of a REVO tuned B8 S4 or the same with a stage II B8 with APR.
auditude did a pull with his did in the B8 S4 with REVO tune…and RS4 tony driving his then reasonably stockish RS4. It was not that bad…maybe 2.5 cars also. Auditude will make it out to be the world but look at it objectively and rationally. If a car is beating you by 4-5 tenths in the quarter mile that’s about 4-5 car lengths. That’s going to equate to about 2, maybe 3 cars on the highway doing a 50-120 type pull. That’s a good margin but hardly anything to go crazy about. If it was 3 buslengths like it was when the RS4 with SC raced the B5 S4, then shit yeah that’s a vicious beatdown…but these pulls here with (BONE STOCK) RS4s and (tuned/exhaust/LWwheels/cats) B8 S4s are pretty nominal dfferences where it matters (0-100 mph).
