hi, is there a relatively simple way of increasing the bhp (and/or torque)? Say by 15%.

any help much appreciated.

ps. the grip and progressive braking and steering of this car is incredible. and i know its got plenty of power but am used to something a lot quicker, hence the question.

THank you. I spoke with a very helpful chap called Ben at Shark Performance, nottingham/mansfield. A friend of mine put me onto him. Certinaly looks like something useful can be done.

cheers

i'd do some research on rs246.com 1st, getting the right map will be very important.

MRC Tuning did my RS6 and I quote directly from an RS Specialist Tech at a well known main Audi RS dealer - "your RS6 is insane; what have you had done to it?!" My answer, "nothing obviously as it's under warranty..." hehe

Speak to Doug: http://www.mrctuning.com/

Not seen a remap on the B7 RS4 that works apart from MRC's.

Isnt there a supercharger mod now from MTM? If you have deep pockets that is.

I can vouch also for the MRC mapping. They have done a great job on my RS6 also and i beleive the RS4 isnt too bad. Make sure you get the inlet manifold cleaned too, as this is the reason why power is so far below stock in the RS4.

Ben is a very decent bloke but MRC is your best bet.

Please let us know what Doug comes up with - I will upgrade from my MRC tuned B5 RS4 to a B7 one day soon.
