Nice, I like it! Nothing like 4 Wheel doughnuts...

Looks like an old quatro of some sort, dunno what flavour. I know there's a few USDM versions, but I think the AWD turbo ones are getting rare these days.

Re: Turbo Audi sounds like a fire extinguisher
 

Yeah that's an old short wheelbase quattro. 5 cylinder 20 valve, that's why it sounds so crazy.
And of course in Sweden, the country of hot blonde girls and mad turbo cars.

Re: Turbo Audi sounds like a fire extinguisher
 

i think it is a A9 quattro

Re: Turbo Audi sounds like a fire extinguisher
 

i'm wrong sitting back and thinking on it it's not a a9 (think i made that up) it's been so long since i've given a ---- about audis it's a 90c or some ---- like that. I just don't remember :1

Re: Turbo Audi sounds like a fire extinguisher
 

thats the Audi Quattro Sport (1983-87)
5 cylinder 2133 cc 304 horsepower stock. by 87 i think that had a very limited model that was pushing 400 hp. and the s1 sport made 509 hp.
stock turbo was a kkk-k27 turbo , but i have no idea what theyre using.
body was made of aluminum , fiberglass , and kevlar.
this is the car that wrote the book on awd rally racing. it was so successful that the World Rally Championship had to made a new class of cars (class a).

I had this car on my old car calendar.. I think it was in the hundres of thousands of dollars originally :l

Re: Turbo Audi sounds like a fire extinguisher
 

yes, it was the most expensive audi ever sold for $100.000.
but being so rare with only 220 made, the value is much higher today .

Re: Turbo Audi sounds like a fire extinguisher
 

I throught the RS6 cost more

Re: Turbo Audi sounds like a fire extinguisher
 

That hissing sound doesn't sound like normal turbo spool. Sounds more to me like some sort of injection system, like maybe in intercooler sprayer or methanol or something. It only happens at WOT, you can hear the turbo spool and then that hissing sound.

That car looks like an absolute beast.

That my friend sounds like a wastegate

Re: Turbo Audi sounds like a fire extinguisher
 

those things are freaking insane :o

Re: Turbo Audi sounds like a fire extinguisher
 

sin't that similar to a vw corrado

Re: Turbo Audi sounds like a fire extinguisher
 

wide open wastegates sound hot.you might be right, but this was in 83-87. lol,, not even close

Re: Turbo Audi sounds like a fire extinguisher
 

I wish more cars like that were made, I was hoping it would be something common that we could get ahold of easily here in the US.

Way to burst my bubble :P
