[Cymru1]

unknown s4 avant (could be standard, looks "upgraded") (looks
really nice!....matt grey)

guess im carrying less weight but down on hp.

so chances of keeping up/upset? nill?
(he could have 500+ but something tells
me to "have a go"!

Are you talking about a 2.7tt ? A chipped ~280hp S2 will beat one they are not that fast.
If it's had bigger turbos fitted and tuned then yes you have a problem !

You may be interested to know the 261 HP tt S4 is listed as having a 0-60 of 5.5 seconds - weighs 1510 kg (avant is 1540 kg)
and the 4.2 v8 S4 with 339 HP is listed as having a 0-60 of 5.6 seconds -weighs 1660 kg (avant is 1720 kg)

I'd say a remapped S2, remapped B5 S4 and a B6 S4 are all in the same ballpark. If you find yourself loosing you could always just try an "Yvan Muller" style shunt up the rear on the brakes and nudge them off... rubbing's racing.

Yeah how many s4 are standard? Not many and with that I would say they are quicker than s2 with the same chipped status

[pixsaudisex2]

I say the opposite Jamo lol...

My mate has a chipped S4 and they are a bit quicker than a chipped S2. They go like stink to be honest.

my mate has a remapped s4 2.7 tt its quick but he doesn't drive it like he stole it !! i always get the better of him in my old homefried s2 coupe . its the way you drive, i'm not say i'm any good but i can defo beat him ... lol

I've had a run in my standard s2 against a friends standard b5 s4 and they were pritty much neck and neck.

Agreed, Id say standard S2 and S4 are very close but with both remapped the S4 should be quicker.
A generic remapped S4 is ~330bhp, add an exhaust and custom remap and its 350
