Default Re: 800 hp is out of the question just from a chip...
I agree. That was just something I read somewhere.

Default I couldn't agree more!!!
After driving a 420hp 996TT I realized that there really is a point where its just too much (for the street). I always thought that I need like 400hp to be happy, but after the Porsche I got into mine and was perfectly happy because it is more than fast enough to get into serious legal trouble really fast!

Ride is too harsh and our roads here are horrible.

Default Re: Well, if you replace the stock motor with a jet engine,
I think I agree with you. I am just going to leave well enough alone.

Why are you inside typing on a computer instead of trying to reach 1K?

Default Hey, 1/4 of the way there, man's gotta take a break and eat ya know.
Already, inquiring about the RS 4 for a stable mate. I'm such a tool.

Default Congrats on the car, lots of chips available, some over 550hp...
ABT, MTM, O.CT, and more.
Check RS6.com for all the stories and chat with owners who have chipped.

Default I'll keep the S6 Avant for hauling groceries. S4 is too small for my needs.
averaging over 100 miles a day, not bad, but you better get 250 a day over the weekend so on Monday we can expect a full report.

Default You know the RS 4 Avant is way too small for my needs also, but..
I am going to do my damnedest to convince myself otherwise; and if that fails, I'm just going to ignore myself and just buy the thing ;-)

I think I'll get a train engine - I hear you can chip them to 42,000 hp
