Sounds crazy that a software change could have that result, but then again, remember that Audi may have intentionally de-tuned the S4 slightly so that the RS4 would be a significant upgrade.

The S series cars DO have launch control but it's hidden, press and hold the esp button for 5 seconds, put it in sport, foot hard on the brake then hard on the throttle. You'll have 4 seconds of 4k launch mode before it will cut off so you have 4 seconds to launch once punching the throttle. Just lift right off the brake to launch

Good old Chris Harris good to see you back!

I also had my 2008 1.8 TSi VW Passat CC tuned by Revo Pros: + Lots more power and a MOUNTAIN load more torque!! It gives the car the power to match its looks, and goes faster than say a Golf GTI now. + Even better fuel consumption than standard while cruising. + Harder/snortier engine note. Cons: - The extra pressure created caused several air leaks in the turbo piping (my car was only 4 years old with 60k miles) and more than a £1000 pounds later trying to get it fixed at various garages.. a leak still pops up somewhere after a few days. The leaking air causes power losses and car jerks under acceleration. I'm depressed and have given up trying to fix it, I just don't accelerate the car hard many more. And no one wants to buy it now. - The Revo remap only runs on RON 98+ Super Unleaded fuel. - Black smoke through exhaust. CONCLUSION: Just buy a fucking BMW 330i or M3!

Sorry to hear that, seems these guys don't bother to tell their customers about the consequences of re-mapping without supporting mods - happy to take peoples money and run I guess. There is nothing wrong with tuning, but to make big power you have to do it right - just changing the factory maps to output this kind of power without adding supporting mods to keep the car healthy is always going to end badly. My advise, find out what other owners of your specific type of vehicle have done, and what problems they have had before you do any tuning. Owners groups are usually the best place to start for advice on what upgrades you need to do before messing with boost and mix.

5:36 "we're just peggin' each other" 😂😂😂

We talking about updating your car to android 3.1.2.2 jelly bean to make it go faster, oh god!

William, this was a comparison to show how close these 2 cars can be in terms of power output with just a little bit of money/tune thrown at the new 3.0 Supercharged Audi engine. For the small investment needed, an S4 owner with the supercharged power train can end up with NEAR RS4 straight line performance. Any RS owner will likely still frown upon such statistics as there is more to tuning than simple power output. I own a 2010 S5 "Daytona Grey" Coupe (4.2L 8 cylinder) with the 6 spd manual transmission (perhaps 1 or only a handful ever built) and i love my 8 cylinder engine regardless of what tuners can do with the forced induction power plant. My 8 cylinder makes erotic and awesome noises the 6 cylinder could only DREAM about. Tis the wonderful difference between so many of the automobiles we car enthusiasts own...sound, performance, looks, branding, etc. Great video Chris Harris..keep them coming!!!

Amazing video. Would like to know if that upgrade is good amso for a 04 allroad 2.7l. Biturbo wagon . Thanks.

Mostly changed the mapping of fuel and inlet+ exhaust flow control unit

This is similar to BMW and how they under rate their motors. Take for example the N54 on the 3 series 335i, stock is 300hp, when you had a $479.00 piggy back tune to it, you go up to almost 370hp - just from the tune, not mentioning the down pipes, or the inter cooler or intake. The Germans really know how to squeeze every last bit of performance out of their engines. These are sleeper cars.

I love this episode, I follow this channel and it is the first car channel that takes a look at aftermarket mods. I currently have a flashed mk4 1.8t with 150k miles on it and it is still to this day is plenty quick because of a REVO flash/software. With that being said, I have your next episode! and would love to see this brought to forwishen, come to think of it actually it would be a two part episode, and because of this involving REVO, they may possibly help sponser/jump aboard for this episode. I would also like to see this episode because I'm a recent graduate of a masters program and will be looking for a new car in the sometime near future (so hopefully I will be able to afford cars in this price range). I currently drive a GTI 337 model with revo flash, mk4 r32 interior, wheels and koni suspension. Always been a fan of the GTI and enjoy tuning them because you make them very fast cars at a very affordable price. Or here's the kicker, I've always loved the VW R models especially the R32 3.2 L V-6 but have never owned one, hich are become collector items but at 240hp need a massive turbo upgrade to hang with todays current sport cars. As the new 2015 VW golf R is going to be in the same price range and have the same MQB chassis as the new Audi S-4 I would love to see those two vehicles compared stock, and then compared after both have had a revo software upgrade. I think would make for an exciting episode as well as see what these aftermarket companies are doing. You can compare both vehicles with either their six speed manual or DSG transmissions, doesn't matter to me. but personally I will say I'm getting a little tired of how Volkswagen has stuck with his 2.0 16 valve turbo since 2008 and am missing how it feels/sounds to have a little bit more displacement, so I had been leaning towards the S4 V6T ?! If neither car suits me just have to buy something and build it myself as I've done in the past (my first car was a VW MK2 with a 2.9 L the 12v V6 engine) or by piece of crap and hold out for an old-school Porsche 911 or BMW E30 ; ) 0h well!! enjoy your channel and Chris you have a dream job! take care and thanks...

A couple of weeks ago I bought an Audi B8.5 S4 and I can't wait to give it a new tune.

"We're just pegging each other now?" Phrasing, Chris! :P

amazing result ..

I love what you were doing with Revo. You should continue to prove that with other VAG cars too, for example with GTIs, they go from 210 to 245hp, and even with the poor mans Audi (A4 1.8T) they have it from 180 to 220hp. It is marvelous what Revo, Unitronic, APR and all ECU tuning softwares can do.

I second this!! I think that would be a great comparison. I've seen some quick and sick 335's!

I wanted to cry seeing an S4 in that condition :'(

please give it to AMMO NYC

How long does that performance last before the head gasket blows?

More videos like this Chris !! How about 335i vs 335d vs m3 the difference between standard and remapped

The S4 _has_ launch control: - put it in S - switch off the traction control - put your foot on the brake - the other foot on the throttle... I have a 2005 V6 A3 and for me it works like that :-)

Did this with my S3, 7 months later the turbo burned out.

@Beer_Dad1975

Indeed, just because you can do something doesn't mean the stock engineering can deal with it. My car stock had 270kw/550nm, you can change the standard mapping and get 350+ with the standard kit & it'll run fine on pump fuel for a while, but if you don't add some supporting mods in - bigger intercooler, uprated injectors, cat-back exhaust as a minimum, you are not going to have a reliable car any more. Generally OEM turbo setups have a little bit of overhead in them, but if you push them this far without supporting mods, something has to give sooner or later. This was filmed over a year ago - I wonder if the car is still running?

Every single video that includes something related to Audi there's 90% of BMW and Mercedes fans saying that their fav. automaker is "way better than Audi" and I'm quite getting tired of it, most of them come from places like the U.S., where Audi isn't really known for what it is, I've had the chance of driving a 535i (it handled nice but it was like if it's engine wasn't there) and a MBenz E350 (I have to confess that it was a really nice car) but the Audi A6 is the one I kept, it has lot of safety features and lots of technology. For all those who are saying RWD > AWD I reply to them "Really? did you even get your car to its limiter? how many times when you are driving on the road did you exceed 200 kph? And why would you even need so much acceleration? (FYI 2014 Audi A6 3.0T does 0-60 in 5.7s when the 535i (non xDrive) does 5.9 s) Search youtube for Nose - Tush or even standard drag races between an A6 and a 535i, then come back and comment.

The s4 engine just lends itself better to being more easily tuned. Great result and good to see a back to back comparison.

Thx. So which concrete options do I have to boost a V8 S5 ? chip tuning ? I've heard some bad things about that :-(

I look on compares to this, a company in Sweden that use MTM tune say the stage 1 tune from them give the S4 100hp+ and 100nm torque for around 1000€, also included is a gearbox strengthening if you dont have manual and they take away the 155mph speed limiter.

Brunlera SAME TUNE - ALL BASED ON THE ORIGINAL APR TUNE...YOU'RE LOOKING AT A B8.5 S4 RATHER THAN A B8 - WHICH THE ABOVE IS

Let's see Chris Harris get the new stage 1+ upgrade with DSG map and then run this race again.

thanks mate, perfect answer :D helped me a lot

My question is, they changed the internals of the 3.0 SC engine in 2012 from the previous versions right? (at least in the Audi A6) Is it safe to do something like this with my 2010 Audi A6 with the older internals? Also what would the cost be? Also I thought you needed an intake and a pulley to get this performance, or is that optional for even more? (and why wouldn't you considering those Im sure cost less than the software mod)

how long will the car last with the tune?

danturbo316 do they share the same gearbox?

Thats no happening ever again , the next rs4 will be turbo as well , just like the 335i and m3 .

Haha bmw got so mad that people were tuning 335i's that they made the ecu's on newer cars more difficult to tune

That is some crazy stuff there!! That V8 sounds amazing though!!

B7 RS4 with the 4.2 v8 is my dream car. So beautiful! Has giant 8 piston carbon ceramics up front stock, 6speed manual and is extremely responsive to bolt ons and tune.

Have u got one now?

As a driver of an even further tuned S4, I was really happy to see those impressive numbers of the chip only. I can say that a pulley upgrade + bolt-ons will get that engine even further. About 500 at the crank are easily doable with relatively small effort.

How long did it last before you had the engine out?

In what world is the Audi S4 a stealthy, slow-looking car??! Anyone who knows anything about cars will see one (big wheels, big brakes, big tyres, quad exhaust, S4 badges) and know that it's a beast of a motorcar...

haha i guess comparing it to the rs4 it is stealthy

it is really stealthy because people who do not know cars well think of names like Ferrari, Lambos, maybe corvettes and mustangs in the US and then this thing that looks like it only carries kids to school blasts off the line

IF you compare the normal audi a4, to the S4 its an insane car. Its the same, but alot more horsepower. A4's are common, very common. The S4 you dont see much, they are kinda rare. Thats because they are so fucking expensive. At least in Norway.

It’s a sedan that’s why lol

I've got the S4 Avant Black Edition B8.5 and regularly get 0-60 in 4.4 seconds stock. Tempting to consider the Revo chip though.

i love neck and neck drag races , make me feel like im in the moment :P
