Default B6 S4

Anyone had any experience with these? Heard a few bad things regarding timing chains. How do they compare to the newage sti? Are they really that boring to drive?

only had a B5 S4, but yes, it was boring. Great fun and very easy to go quick in though.

Head on over to www.rs246.com or www.audisrs.com

Oh well . its just 10k more aye. But if money is not an object than deffo rs range. From my experience they tend to understeer even more than a scoob if you drive it smoothly. You have to be agressive to make a quattro system work. I'll try to dig out a track day vid , but above mentioned forums will give you great knowledge as well.
