Audi RS5/RS4 goes twin-turbo ! 450hp 4.2l V8...

My prediction is that the next M3 will be a twin-turbo 3.5l I6, but right now I think that it will most likely be a twin-turbo V8...

Interesting that they choose turbocharging for the RS4/5 instead of the supercharging used in the S4/5.

This makes me appreciate my twin-turbo N54 even more...don't care about the cost-cutting N55

Considering BMW's stance on the HPFP issue, I dont blame him.

Pass. I'll take the BMW equivalent of any Audi, any day of the week (save the R8).

Too bad Audi doesn't sell the RS6 Avant or S4 Avant in the US.
