Twin turbo is much more tuneable.
Audi dealer parts are a ripoff, and they forget the older Audi models quickly, with regards to stopping selling parts etc
But they are a great value for money luxury car imo

Well recently bought an audi s4 and all i can say is what a fantastic car! But unfortunately i have realised its not for me. Its a very smooth drive with fantastic power but as strange as it sound i prefer the drive of a cosworth/evo.

I am going to be putting it up for sale soon and try and get back into cosworth/evo scene.

Bi turbo V6 (2.7L) is more tunable than N/A V8 (4.2L) model, but the V8 can be retrofitted with the twin turbo set up off the older RS6, and with the right parts taken up to a still super reliable 600hp

Fast car indeed, I was impressed by the run I got in a B7 (2005+) model. Whats not to like, V8 power and noise, superb build quality and beautiful interior (B7). The seats are just awesome! With that said, i think id have an e46 M3 over one for the hooligan element lol
