Default What can one expect out of 340 hp 4.2 for hp/lb ft with respect to tuning?
Casually looking at exhausts, chips, etc., is it about 370 hp and 320 lb ft?

Thanks,

J

Thanks! So friction coefficient is only about 0.82? Looks like crank 360-370 hp.

Default Why was the old S8 4.2Q 360 hp at crank and S4/S6 4.2Q
only 340 hp? Were S4/S6 intentionally underrated for marketing purposes or was the S8 a truly higher performing engine?
