Audi Supercharger Technology
Alongside Exhaust gas turbochargers, Audi also makes use of Superchargers to Boost its engines. A Supercharger is used in the 3.0 TFSI. The high-efficiency mechanical charger is situated in the 90-degree V formed by the cylinder banks and is driven by the engine via a poly-V belt. The gas pathways downstream of the charger are very short, thus the torque develops quickly and easily. The full Boost is available even at idle.

Track Comparison: BMW 335i (E92) vs. Audi S4 (B8)
I've taken both of my cars to the track for my own comparison. Only mods on the cars were tires, Audi got better brake pads, otherwise all stock. Track was Streets of Willow (CW). BMW was in March 2011, while the Audi was in November 2011, but both days had similar weather conditions.
Hope you all enjoy the video.
Audi S4 Open Downpipes
Audi S4 (b5) Stage 3 Minus
This is a video that doesn't do justice to how annoying open DP's can be on a daily driver. The camera I used cannot pick up the low notes that the Exhaust was producing, but none the less you can still get a pretty good Idea. The clutch isn't broken in yet, so thats why I'm not flogging the motor yet.
I'll list the power upgrades for a more accurate video. (The temp was about ~75 degrees, and yes I know it was a cold start it'll be alright just watch the tachometer. The Dp's I have on my car are 2 piece DP's (for each side). SSA forgot to send me my "olive clamps" so thats why I have to ride around like this. These downpipes reach about 2 to 3 feet past the turbo's thats it!
