My S5 was a bone stock 6 speed manual and the best I could get out of it was 13.09@105.5 but it averaged around 13.15@105.... I've only done 3 passes with my stock dct ZCP '11 M3 coupe and the best was 12.43@114.5... The others being 12.47 and 12.51....it's pretty safe to say .65 in the quarter and 9mph in trap speed is a pretty sizeable margin...the Audi was a very well built car that was great to look at but that's where it ended... I can't speak about the S4 because I personally have no seat time in one but from seeing a few run by good drivers I would say 12.95-13.20 at around 108-09
I don't understand how you could think a S4 would only do 12.9-13.0 with a trap speed of 108-109 when you where doing 12.9 with 105 trap , I've owned plenty of AWD cars and I also have at least 500 1/4 mile runs under my belt and I know for a fact that AWD and 109 trap = at least 12.5 . I had an A4 1.8t with gt28rs 23psi , 12.4 109mph and I had an STI stg2 12.5 109mph ! Also it's been proven that the S4 has more hp then a S5 , APR dynoed a stock S4 and it showed more then 300 awhp , that is more like 400hp then 354 like a S5 ! But I give you that , the S5 is boring !
