Nice! What the hell is there to complain about? Just keep quiet and nod your head when you hear trash talk like that.

So sometimes if they pick on me I go get him lol
Understandable. And if your brother has a modded S4, then you're probably aware of how needy that platform is and how you have to pull the motor all too frequently. The unfortunate reality is that you just aren't going to be able to match the performance of cars like that without investing a ton of time and money. The other thing is, to make an A4 as fast as an Evo, you'd have to strip out the interior like an Evo. And who the **** wants to do that to a daily driver? Every time they get on you about having a slow car, get on them about not having leather, power heated seats, a 6 disc CD changer, a 3-way power sun roof, and a car that isn't ******* hideous and offensive to look at

But i definitely see what you mean. You literally have to replace two of everything.

LOL thanks. And that's part of it, but it also has to do with the design and (over)engineering of the motor. They shoehorned two turbos, intercoolers, DV's, and all the associated plumbing into the same space as your engine and mine, save for a slightly larger bumper. I can take my turbo off in an afternoon with some hand tools and a case of beer. I challenge you to do that on an S4 without an engine hoist or lift.

I don't understand the point of it at all in the first place - an A4 is targeted at suck a vastly different buyer than one of the rally cars that it's dumb to even compare. A4 shoppers don't even go into the Subaru or Mitsu showrooms and vice versa. As for the locker room dick comparisons, well, they're talking up how much faster they are. Who the **** cares? And as mentioned above, there's a faster car than theirs out there if that's all that matters. I happen to work with a guy with a Heffner-built Ford GT, running twin turbos blowing into the supercharger to the tune of 1500hp. So what? Someone out there probably has one making 2000hp.

Bench bragging is a sport for retards.

i really don't care what people think... never have. do what you want, **** everyone else. its a moot point. if you wanted a faster car, you would have bought one. personally, i don't need a faster car. i've had "fast" cars. i actually like driving my my stock, slow, a4. which really isn't *that* slow.

Lower your car bro. It'll look faster.
