    Compressor kit to Audi's 3.0 V6

    Abt is working on a compressor kit for the 3.0 V6.

    Power is expected to be around 290 - 300 bhp.

    Creative Thinking:
    If we think about it, the RS4 should have a V8 just like the S4. I mean why not? Who would like to pay more and get less (cylinders at least)?

    Also, I doubt there is any place for two turbo chargers and intercoolers like on the RS6 in the A4 model.

    So, I guess they'll use a compressor (instant power as well).

    With the same kind of 'boost' Abt is using it should be possible to get 450 - 470 bhp out of the S4 V8. Probably less not to over-shoot the RS6.

    Any comments?

    the kit looks more than up to the job for giving the
    neccessary power!

    as far as who would pay more, remember the earlier m3
    (at least stateside) had a high output 4 cyclinder even though
    the 3 series was already avalible with a 6 cylinder.
