lol, thats funny :P speaking of, I've been looking around for B8 S4 info all day..
.. I've been getting the new car itch lately and I guess I've subconsciously been awaiting B8 S4 drivetrain specs before I make a decision; with fingers crossed on a V6TT, of course.
A friend of mine said his friend who's an audi tech has actually gone for recent "turbo training" so that he will be able to service and support a "new turbo motor" from Audi. Not sure if he's BS'ing me or not. I know this doesnt necessarily mean S4, but has anyone else heard anything on this?

Well, my car runs, the kit is fitted, and will be tuned over the next couple of weeks...
...so I'd say patience my friend. It won't be much longer. There is a VERY solid base tune already, done on a car with just the kit and no other mods. We'll share some data once we have a tune on my car, which has all the supporting mods for big power.
Additionally, there are kits in the hands of two other accomplished tuners at this moment, so we should be seeing their results soon.
As of now, my car is the only car in the U.S. with the full production kit and all the supporting mods fitted. I just drove it out of WMS on Friday for the first time... We have all the fuel pulled out of it, and a 3 BAR regulator in the car so that I can drive it while we working on other things.
We will keep you posted, but I promise you, from what we've seen thus far, it's going to be TiAL/Bravo FTW!

would you mind starting over on a completely new platform? ; )
how long do you think before we could make a b8 twin turbo... REALLY fast?
JJ's doing alright as far as I know. Haven't heard otherwise, but I havent heard from him in a while. Uli told me he supposedly went for "turbo training" .. I'm just not sure A) how truthful that is and B) if this is the motor slated for the S4. I know the TT-S is also getting a new form turbo so I guess it could be that?
