Audi S4 tuned by ABT, 435hp

We formally reported the MTM Audi S4 few days ago, now the ABT Sportsline followed the step to offer the ABT Audi S4 performance upgrade.

The standard Audi S4 is power by 3.0 liter TFSI V6 engine, producing 333 hp (245 kW) and 440 Nm of torque. This is already powerful! But it’s excited that with the ABT Audi S4 power pack, the custom vehicle reach up to 435 hp (320 kW) and 520 Nm of torque. The top speed of the ABT Audi S4 is 282 km/h (175mph), and that is 32 km/h more than the standard version, the 0 to 100 km/h acceleration time is 0.5 seconds faster than the standard car which means the custom S4 can reach the mark in 4.6 seconds.

The extra performance brings additional driving enjoyment and gets to work powerfully in any situation. ABT promises the tuned S4 is perfectly in tune with the Ingolstadt-based brand's 7-speed DSG gearbox in keeping the Abt S4 properly humming along.

Despite the extra power, the fuel consumption and CO2 emissions levels of the ABT Audi S4 are not higher than the ones of the standard car.

The ABT Audi S4 also comes with a quad sports exhaust unit and a choice between 18, 19 and 20 Abt or BR wheels.

ABT website prices the upgrade at €3800 plus €60 for installation and €130 for TÜV certification.

MTM Tunes Audi S4 3.0 TFSI to 430HP, A6 3.0 TFSI to 360HP

Audi S4, already one of the most potent of the Audi S cars, produces a respectable 333hp (248kW) with the 3.0L V6 TFSI engine. Now, specialist Audi tuner MTM, has enhanced the power to 430hp (320kW) and 380lb-ft (515Nm) of torque for the Audi S4 sedan and Avant models, thanks to its M-Cantronic system. This makes the cars able to challenge the previous generation RS4 that came with 420 horsepower and 430Nm of torque.

With the quattro AWD and the 6-speed manual gearbox, the modified S4 will accelerate from 0 - 100km/h in just 4.7 seconds – 0.4 seconds faster than the stock version.

Beside improved performance, buyers have a choice between 19-inch and 21-inch Bimoto alloy wheels in addition to a height-adjustable suspension system. An exclusive four-pipe oval exhaust system with different optics is also fitted along with MTM brakes.

As for the Audi A6 3.0-litre TFSI, MTM has a special M-Cantronic programme which not only increases their V6's efficiency but boosts the supercharged V6's output from 290 horsepower to 360 horsepower.

Incidentally, MTM said that assembly and disassembly are done quickly. For vehicles used commercially, making it ideal for people who are using leased cars as well as outright owners.
