    Interesting that the Mitsubishi EVO has the best lap time of all those cars, is by far the cheapest (except for the 350Z), and you can add 100hp more for just $750:

    Well, quattroroute did it again after "very nice" 997 Turbo comparison test...

    Here are the times achived around Hockenheim(2,6km) by Sport Auto:

    Audi RS4(1728kg,Ceramics,Corsa'a,Suspension+) 1.15,4min
    Mitsubishi Lancer EVO IX(RE050) 1.16,8min
    Subaru Impreza WRX STi(RE070) 1.16,1min
    BMW Z4 M Roadster 1.16,7min
    Porsche Cayman S(PASM, 19") 1.15,5min

    Completely different results then from quattroroute...

    In the test of Quatroruote the RS4 had 18" with Pilot Sport and normal suspension-brakes
    The tester say: Rs4 is not a car for the track

    Sport Auto guru Horst von Saurma said on the other hand in his RS4 Supertest that RS4 is the best sportsaloon in the world and quickest 4door car on the Hockenheim and Nordschleife... Interesting difference, isn't it?

    The Jap turbo 4's are a tuner's paradise, and it's great bang for your buck's if you could live with the cheap plastics.

    Those are some of the slowest times I've seen for the RS4. They're usually low 17s or high 16s for the 0-200 km/h sprint.

    My friend just totaled his EVO VIII by running 2 bar pressure on it...hey, at the time he was putting 400 to the wheels, but these things were not meant to last

    Re: Quattroruote: test BMW Z4 M and RS4

    I have acquantances who have had engines replaced after boosting too much presuure on the turbo, it's common to hear wrecked gearboxes and clutches after a few runs in the drags... So, they don't last too long once modified (and driven hard).
