    Im sure this may be old news to most but i recently read some people amazed at the concept of a twin turbo 4.2. but its already been done by Gumpert, in the Apollo. though not an audi the car was on the top of top gears list, last year, but it does use audis 4.2L motor with obviously much modification, it makes me wonder how much power u could get out of the standard audi 4.2 with just a few modifications and twin turbos.

    no offense bro... but welcome to old news...

    that motor came directly out of the old body style RS6.

    and everything Gumpert uses other than the body is straight off an Audi (mostly off the TT)

    Got to agree with Alkivar.

    Also, a Dutch supercar maker, Spyker, uses Audi's 4.2 liter 40valve V8 engine in its C8 model. There are probably more supercars that use Audi engines if you look around. Apollo is the fastest though.

    Current: 2015 B8.5 S4 - Sepang Blue w/Black Optic package. Sport Diff.
    Previous: 2005 B6 S4 - Dolphin Grey and 2001 B5 S4 - Black.

    That statement just dawned on me like an epiphany... and when you think about it, it's true.
