RE: RS4 v BMW 335i twin turbo
Yeah you can chip a rs6 now and get over 500hp. with exhaust, upgrade the turbos, and some minor things and 600hp is cake. Just make sure you have the 6 speed. The autos cant handle the power from what i heard. but impossible to find six speed. I have only ever heard of one.

the 335 is a 300HP car right? a stock S4 should still be able to run that car, an RS4 is just murder

The new RS6 will be a twin turbo V-10 gallardo motor.
Do you remember what Toyota did with the Turbo Supras? Well double the torque and there you are.
A Z06 will have a hard time keeping up, but imagine with a new CPU program (if you really want that) which would be a nightmare!!!!

ummmm... i don't think the new RS6 is bi-turbo.... i believe is the 5-litre V10 NA.... and good luck tuning that engine with bi-turbo... the compression ratio is probably through the roof..... sure would be bad *** though.....

To you 335i bashers, allowme to clarify a few things:
BMW 335i Sedan MSRP: $40,800 (starting) - with PROcede $42,100.
Audi RS4 MSRP: $66,000
Difference: $25,200; with PROcede $23,900
Winner: BMW
Performance
BMW 335i
Our 335i similarly scalded the quarter-mile in 13.3 seconds at 105.9 mph. For comparison, our 2005 M3 Competition Package used up 5.5 seconds getting to 60 and finished the quarter-mile in 13.7 seconds at 105.4 mph — close, but still a rearview-mirror performance. We almost beat the all-powerful 2007 Audi RS4, too. Despite a 120-horsepower advantage and all-wheel-drive launch superiority, it just nicked our 335i's 0-60 and quarter-mile times by a paltry 0.1 second each.

2007 Audi RS4
A 4.2-liter V8 engine powers the Audi RS 4. Equipped with direct fuel injection and sporting a 12.5:1 compression ratio, this powerhouse makes 420 horsepower and 317 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed manual gearbox (the only transmission offered) sends the power to all four wheels through Audi's quattro all-wheel-drive system, which has a 40/60 front-to-rear power split in this application. During instrumented testing conducted by Inside Line, an RS 4 shot to 60 mph in 4.7 seconds and ran the quarter-mile in 13.2 seconds at nearly 107 mph.

Winner: RS4 (by .01 seconds on 0-60 and 1/4 mile - does this deserve paying$25,000 more for a .01 second improvement...wait there's more)

What happens when you add a $1300 upgrade to the 335i????
http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do...ticleId=119485
This incendiary performance puts the cooking 335i in the same league as dedicated performance pieces like the Audi RS 4 and the Mitsubishi Evo IX — cars that don't come close to offering the Bimmer's stealth factor.
Sixty mph arrives in 4.6 seconds and the quarter-mile flashes by in 13.0 seconds at 109 mph, 0.3 second quicker than the last stock 335i with an automatic transmission that we tested. And that's quicker than any stock Evo or Audi RS 4 we've ever tested.
Lastly, what happens when you have PROcede (only $1300) and use 93 octane gas
