Car rags best is 7.0..... The S4 in STOCK trim is consistently in the low 6's and with a peak torque of 257lb/ft @ 1950 should easily dust a STS.... The caddy engine is a fine one, but maybe in search of a better chassis (or lighter).... Don't sell the 5ktq short either graydon, BTDT with both my toys, caddies have a high propensity to try bragging at the toll booths here in Chi-town.... A stock S4 in second or 3rd has a serious task associated with speed..... NJTH Scott
