    Default RS4 vs S4 Tuned

    Cool video I just came across of a basic engine tune on the S4. Please delete if this is a repost

    It's like 1500 euro/pounds. Pretty cheap to me.

    Anybody know why the S4 lights (tails and DRL's) were blinking with what seemed like a random random pattern?

    For the cost/benefit, true. Long term vehicle reliability and longevity, not so much?

    It still doesn't have the suspension that the RS4 has.

    But hey, 99% of the time in real world street-light drag races, that's pretty impressive. Imagine how irate MS3 owners would be if there was a NA tune for a 2.0L MZ3 lol

    The S4 is supercharged while the RS4 was N/A.

    the whole point of the video was to show the ability to gain so much more power pretty simpy from a turbocharged/supercharged application.


    It has nothing to do with an N/A Mazda 3 competing in any way with a speed3 (without dumping a whole lot of cash into the build)

    but nice try.

    something to do with cameras not being able to keep up with the light (diodes at work)

    also, chris harris has got to be my favorite commentator.
