ABT POWER increases the Audi S4’s speed. While the compressor V6 with its 3 l cc and 333 hp (245 kW) is very sporty, the ABT Audi S4 will make it a super sports car for all those who like it that way. The discreetly elegant car will then have 435 hp or 320 kW. And the additional 102 hp are “well-fed” indeed. 4.6 seconds to reach 100 km/h, up from 5.1 seconds. For a high-performance car, 0.5 seconds are almost an eternity. Its top speed stands at 282 km/h – 32 km/h more than the serial Audi S4’s.
Its torque is also quite something. Instead of 440 Nm, we now have 520 Nm – about 19 per cent more. This make the 3.0 TFSI powerful in all situations. It brings you more fun and shows its superiority in all seven gears of the DSG transmission. Still, fuel consumption and thus your environmental footprint is no bigger than with the serial model. You have, however, more fun on country roads and motorways. After all, the ABT Audi S4 can do it all much better, is more sporty. The V6 is a real sprinter, up to its top speed. The Allgäu-based car tuner also recommends its 4-pipe sport exhaust system.
It is ABT’s family tradition to make an engine perform as well as possible. Be it an optimisation of the electronic engine management, turbo chargers or compressor retrofitting – performance increases are what we do and want to do. No wonder, then, that we are the global No. I tuner of cars produced by Audi, Volkswagen, Seat and Škoda. And given our experiences gained in racing we also know that it isn’t only about power, it is also about stability. Only the two factors combined will make driving such cars real fun - permanently.
Be it a petrol-engine or a diesel-engine - modern cars require an electronic engine management. It is the brains, responsible for capturing, analysing and translating into specific commands all the pertinent data and parameters like engine temperature, air and fuel masses. This optimisation is the job of the specially developed ABT Power Software. It guarantees an ideal performance at equally ideal consumption levels and also sees to it that your engine is not driven too hard. You can rely on it and make your Audi S4 perform best.
Engine technology sees a constant development. Thanks to high-tech electronics, cars are now getting ever more perfect. And in terms of performance, a new era has now also been ushered in by ABT Engine Control. Specially developed for the latest engine generations to optimise the optimum. The advantages are obvious: If you have two “brains”, either can focus upon what it does best. For ABT Engine Control, this means. All performance-relevant measurements and parameters are analysed, fine-tuned and translated into ABT POWER commands in an extra control unit. And for you, this means maximum fun and even more safety. Even if there is a defect, which is highly unlikely, the fixed ABT Engine Control unit is still fully functional.
A better performance in the same exhaust emission category. A better performance does not necessarily mean higher CO2 emissions. At least not with ABT. While a serial model of the latest engine generation emits 0.9 to 1.0 g/hp, using ABT Power and ABT Power S reduces this level to down to 0.7 g/hp.
So the hp-based CO2 emissions are lowered by up to 30 per cent. A better performance, but no higher CO2 emissions. And the previous exhaust emission category still applies.
