Default RS6 tip is out of the W12 A8's
Its the only trannie in audi's line that could handle the power. Trannie is still probably overwhelmed by that monster. The regular S4 should have the same plane jane trannie that all the other natural asperated V8's in audi's line get. Oh and the RS6 is missing a cog, when compared to the S4 trannie. RS6 is a 5 speed auto, S4 is a 6 speed auto.

Default Not sure, there are even trans failures in RS6, so I doubt that the S4
trans can handle 450+HP and 420+ lbs of tourque.

And at the looks of the 6sp and clutch setup I doubt that that could handle it either.
