Buddy of mine just recently bought CPO B8 S4 with premium package[drool]. He gave his son his old B7 S4 for high school graduation[eek]. He's going to college the fall[hail]. But anyway. We used to go for spirited late nite [drive]. I would always be ale to take him from 0-100[race] with no problem. From 100- ? he would get me. Now since he has a B8 S4 whats my likely hood I still can do the same[confused] Just figure I ask people's opinion before I go out there and get myself my ass handed to me[facepalm][headbang]

You're gonna get your ass handed to you. Don't even think you'll get close to him. S-tronic are fast or even in manual form

My car is currently in a stock 3.0T performance range.
Hows your driving?

Really depends on how the tune is for your ko4. I was able to keep up and pull on a c5 rs6.

WOW, a bus. I know that are fast tuned, but a bus against a BT A4, I figured a car or two.

I raced a B8 S4 from about 40 - 120 on a hwy and kept up with him just fine. He never got more than half a car ahead of me. If he's stock, I suspect you'll pull on him

Since Im tiptronic[eek]. I stick in S Mode and floor it on[drive] straight aways on the Mexico TPK. No skill in keeping it straight[facepalm]...lol
Compared the HP of both of them. He has 333hp and I estimate mine @ about 325hp. He been aching for me to step on the Mexico TPK with him.. Luckily its been raining up here[=(]....

If he doesn't get a tune I think he'll slowly walk on you. If he gets a tune and a pulley, I think you'll get destroyed!

When I had my b7 stage 1 with open non res exhaust and no other mods I kept about half a car length behind a b8 s4 on the highway doing a pick up from about 50km/h he thought I was an s4 and wanted to compare 4.2 to 3.0t he was surprised as hell when I told him I'm a stage 1 2.0t and we did a couple other pulls from 80 and he didn't get that much further than me. (Don't flame, I do know his driving skill may be lacking but still)

Maybe not that bad but he got the jump and there was no catching him

That doesn't make any sense 330+ HP vs 205 HP ....
Carbon build up isn't that bad

Did the S5 driver know he was racing?

Believe it or not, some of the before and after dyno's of carbon cleanup, are shocking. It's a much bigger deal on the 8cyl.

My friend had just called me before I posted that. I've driven the s5 too myself and it was being robbed a lot of power I wasn't impressed at all

Yes father was playing around with son to do short pulls

this they did a carbon clean around 60k and the car felt completely different now it's a 170ish if I remember correctly

Hes right, carbon build up really affects the 4.2, when I pulled against my dad in second, you can hear it struggling I swear. Hes going to get a clean up soon since he wasnt that impressed ahahaha

Naa [facepalm]. But his son with the B7 S4 did a few pulls against the B8 S4[eek]. He told me that from 0-100 the B8 S4 had it by a car length [race]. That leaves me to believe that Its going to be hard pull on him[=(]
