    RS2 or BMW 330d??

    May seem a no brainer, I have an RS2 that doesn't get used a great deal! The question is should I keep it or go for the BMW I have been offered? My wife told me to get an RS4!! how many white goods will that cost me? Any thoughts would be welcome.

    cheers Simon
    You might leave the S2 fold every so often - but you'll always come back!

    I think you're asking the wrong people regarding the BMW!!! :mischeif: Stick with the 4 rings one way or t'other.

      Question is, will you be swapping for a 33o, or an RS4 that will not get used......

      My feelings on the matter; RS2 RS2 RS2 RS2 RS2 RS2 RS2 RS2 RS2 RS2 RS2 RS2

          That said, the 330D engine is a very good engine, we use it in our racers with good power and torque figures

          But as stated, this is a Audi forum. I'd keep the RS2
          Cheers,

              I'd say go for the RS4 and give the RS2 to me, I'll even give you a ton to get you started on your first tank for the RS4!

              go aaaan, I've been itching for an excuse to join in the forum properly

                just to ask... will RS4 (talking of the RS4 twin turbo, not the new one) have better milenage then RS2, in over all aspects? I ask because RS2 has 10 years tech engine... so I will be not surprised if RS4 has better fuel milenage.

                  I dont think so! Maybe the same! Dont forget the RS4 has more displacement! That extra displacement must also "filled with fuel" !
                  Go Holset or Go RS4

                    Im insulted that this question was even asked! Did you honestly think you would get a mutual response?

                      Ok already! the BM is out, maybe I was trying to be all sensible and homely. Maybe I should just boost the power when MRC does the cambelt, however I will need to uprate the brakes to big reds. Anyone know of any kicking around?

                        Bry can most probably sort you out with a Porsche brake kit.

                        He has supplied a lot of people on here with 996 kits and does a Great!! job of it!!
                        Not sure if he has any BIG reds but its worth a try.
                        Otherwise there's always ebay


                        P.S. good decision regarding the BM
