RE: 2008 RS 6
Seems a bit odd that Audi has gone away from the turbos for the S4 and inparticular the RS4 - now the RS6 has turbo chargers?[sm=interesting.gif]
Any way it will be kicking the M5's ***, the M5 is getting old now, maybe they will update it with more power?

im sure a few years after the new m3 comes out there will be a bran new spankin m5 that will (i hate to say it, but its probally gonna be true) will be faster than the rs6, given i's still rather have the rs6 because it looks so damn tight and it o so comfortable

I thought from all the press/media bout the S6 that the V10 was a fair squeeze into the engine bay? how did Audi fit a V10 bituro in - with all that plumbing and not to mention 2 coolers[sm=dontgetit.gif]

Powered by the same V10 engine as the S6, but with some help from a turbo delivering about 520-550 bhp,
Sorry guys just re read it again, would Audi use 1 turbo, no they wouldnt be that silly to just use 1 turbo[sm=chairshot.gif]
That is one shick avant![sm=badbadbad.gif]

Is this the man's answer to being a soccer mom or something? What's next? They drop the V10 into a minivan??? lol

Reading that link - I never understand all of the "they can't put in the same engine as the Lambo" kind of thinking. Someone buying an Audi sedan and someone buying a Lambo are not the same buyer. Someone that has wanted a Lambo their entire life isn't going to hear that the RS6 has the same engine and say "Now I don't want a Lambo" or "This car doesn't seem fast anymore because I know that somehere out there, there is a heavier 4dr sedan with this engine". Car mag/blog writers just need to get over it.
