Torque Factory B5 S4 wins 2007 Ultimate Street Car Challenge
This is why i got the s4... i knew this would happen!
The Audi S4 of Brent Mattraw, built by the crew at Torque Factory in Venice, California, showed its capability with consistently strong finishes in the acceleration, dyno, braking and driveability tests. A true example of an ultimate street car, this S4 builds upon a factory platform with choice modifications and just the right amount of tuning. Making this win even more impressive is the fact that, two weeks prior to the USCC, Torque Factory had the S4's engine sitting on the ground in pieces. Going for broke, they built the engine, put the car together and ended up with an 11-second, 572 wheel-hp street-driven beast. Jeff Moss, head honcho at Torque Factory, drove the car to our cover photoshoot and then drove it back to his shop, without having had time to touch the car since it entered and took the crown as the Ultimate Street Car.

The car had prototype RS6 turbos in it. From innovative turbo....since the shoot out the head engineer that made the turbos has left innovative to start his own company and start selling the RS6 turbos.
There are other company's that clame good #'s with the RS6 turbos but none have ever been anything more than fancy dyno manipulation. The prototype RS6 turbos clearly make real power. glad to see we (S4) topped the supra and the Z06....there looks to be a new king of the hill coming in the S4
