You and your worries about valvefloat....<shakes head>. ;-) Agreed, but then

most of use don't have the turbos to truly take advantage of the raised limit anyway.

very true....but the question wasn't really if the turbos were adequate...hehe. As for valvefloat..

I know a few people that floated theirs in camed BMWs...just doing my due diligence, brother! :-)

hey...could you Pleeeeeze put me on your info email list. I want to know EVERYTHING regarding the "R.C.s" as the news develops.

I want to be "Revolvered"...just remember, I just coined that phrase, now give me the employee discount ;-)

I set it to 7200 on Stage 3 S4s and 7400 on highly modified RS4s. No probs whatsoever.

Depends on what you call part-time, I have a dedicated track car....

the '05 Elise I just picked up, that will be out there this season, and I race Karts too, so the S4 kinda got put on the back-burner for the time being.
