Love that 6th gear for 01E for 200mph at 7200rpm... Small print doesn't say you need >500bhp and a helluva tail wind.
Nice slick looking site !Paul Nugent

That's what happens when you don't have a petrol mist keeping the ports and valves clean. These cars would definitely benefit from water/alky injection.
Pretty sad, an already gutless engine rapidly becoming even more gutless due to poor design.

I have driven the 4.2L and I was bored. They barely crack 300whp on a Dyno Dynamics or Mustang dyno, and they totally lack the mid range punch of a well made turbo engine, making them feel slower than they really are. The B5 RS4 was brilliant, and hopefully the B8 with the supercharged 3L will be that too.1995 RS2 on Alcohol (6.8sec 100-200km/h)
