I like both of these cars very much. I currently wouldn't trade my beloved Alfa Romeo Giulia for either of these, but I have a big soft spot for both Volkswagen and Audi.

I'd choose the Golf R, not so much because of its performance at the limit, but because the hatchback format is so much more utilitarian.

Hands down very important video This hatchback fits as much boxes as palisade with the rear sits down of course and that is the selling point for me . I can haul my things daily and as an underdog wakes up and surprises every single car except Bugatti and maybe a couple of Ferraris and a pagani

before watching - okay so there should not be much room between these two car. If I had to pick a winner, the golf R's engine being slightly less over the center line of the front wheels (if I recall the layout correctly), will give it less under steer at the end and slightly more cornering grip. giving it the edge. but these two should basically be running even unless the S4 weighs way more than I thought.

Worst possible reference for racing on YT. The m240 has been pitted against it on many channel and by no means am I saying it’s not faster. It is, no argument from me there. But it’s not like a HUGE blowout. The R keeps up for a while and just falls out towards the end. It definitely loses some tenths. As far as over boost… you’re just talking about launch control. That’s not “over” boost, it’s simply preload. I literally have a tuned FBO 8R. I’ve logged and monitored boost, IATs, you name it on all sorts of conditions. It’s not over boosting.

67k is fully optioned out and my guess, a markup. Bought My S4 brand new with added options for 53k, so im not sure why it was almost 70k in this video. As far as issues, i havent heard of any major issues with the EA839 3.0 or 2.9 engines. In fact, just the opposite. Many people have dozens of pulls and testing on S4's with over 700whp on the stock block, and with just bolt on parts and a hybrid turbo, they run 9s. So, while the R may be a little faster in a u drag, actual straight line speed im almost positive the S4 takes it. Its also 500lbs heaver and a luxuary sedan, not a lightweight hatch lol. Not only that, but im calling BS on the whole turning ECS and traction off lowers the responsiveness of the car. I did alot of testing back when my S4 was stock and it leaves way harder with everything turned off. Every single performance oriented company recommends to launch that way. Turning it all off does not allow the ECU or TCU to limit power to protect from wheelspin, and unless you are on a very terrible surface, you arent breaking all 4 wheels loose on a 3800lbs car with 255s on stock power levels. Just my 2 cents and what ive seen.

@@ALMX5DP which is why they break constantly and some how get worse gas mileage too. I can see why the Mustang sells so well in Germany now. It's cheaper, faster, and more reliable than this junk. It sucks in snow though.

What happened to the other guy host he was more entertaining.

Just my 2 cents being an S4 owner, i have ran much faster 0-60 and quarters at 2,000 feet elevation at 80 degrees with a DA of 3500+ on 91 octane. 4.2 0-60 and a quarter of 12.5 when mine was stock, so i think the reason this S4 seemed slow, was a driver error. 1, turning ESC and trac controll all the way off does not make the car slower or less responsive, ive tested that many times. Turning it all the way off is what enables AMAX shifting for the trans, so this wasnt a correct run. 2, not sure because it doesnt show it, they may have not physically launched correctly by either missing the upswing of RPMs or didnt wait until the S4 builds full boost. Either way, there are many examples of B9.5s taking the Golf r in straight runs, contrary to this video. Maybe re run with a better launch setup after practice and turning systems all the way off will return a different result, because 13+ quarters on the 2022 S4 isnt at all what it can actually do. Run it again with ESC off engaging AMAX, and the outcome will be different.

Idk it’s the same conditions for the Golf R. I have experimented with ESC sport and off at a race track and made no difference at all. I have also ran a 12.61 at 108.7 mph personally in not ideal conditions all stock obviously plus baby seats and some other stuff. Some other guys got a 12.5 and even 12.4 out of the MK8 R that I know. However I do think it should have been closer race. I think the B9 might be a bit faster for some reason? No idea

@@mqbr22 Either way, AMAX yields much faster shift, amd he didnt have it engaged. Needs to be re run for actual results because 13+ is a horrible time compared to what it should actually run.

@@MeatloafMelvin Both cars ran equally terrible times. They got a 13.1 with the R. Like how is that even possible to do besides high elevation. Also could have 91 octane in both cars. This test wasn’t about 1/4 mile times anyways.

Agreed S4 did not have amax engaged on the ZF, the b9s run 12s stock.

ok that guy has reaction time of a sloth.....where is Carlos?

Golf r wins
