i believe they started this in the 06’s…
oh and for what you described that you are looking for in an exhaust i would totally suggest the FI. i can hardly hear it with the windows up in the car and it totally has a better sound than stock.

40/60 Power split started in 2006.
looks like the wiki is wrong then?
Starting with the B7 Audi RS4 and the manual transmission version of the 2006 B7 Audi S4. It was adopted in the entire S4, S6, and S8 lineup in 2007.
System type: Permanent asymmetric four-wheel drive.
Torsen type 3 (Type "C") centre differential, 40:60 'default' split front-rear, automatically apportioning up to 80% of the torque to one axle using a 4:1 high-biased center differential. With the aid of ESP, up to 100% of the torque can be transferred to one axle.
Open rear differential, Elect...
quattro generation V
[citation needed]
Starting from 2006 on B7 Audi RS4 and the 2008 B7 Audi S4.[1]

Meh. It’s just a crappy VW with a V8, and a small one at that.
Your car makes me hard.
don’t drive one of the new ones, it will make your sell your car it’s so much better. feels like a RWD car with FWD on demand instead of the other way around on gen IV cars.

Cool, grocery getter! My aunt has close to the same one.
hahha i dont think i would want to sell my car. i would rather just upgrade to the stasis diff i was talking about for $550 which actually can send up to 88% of the power to the rear when exiting a turn.

[FONT=Arial]Tuning the center differential provides one of the most significant performance gains available to the Quattro owner. The standard torsen center differential in the S4 and A4 provides a 2:1 torque distribution capability. This enables the end of the car with traction (generally the rear) to deliver twice the torque being delivered by the least tractive end of the vehicle (generally the front). For high performance street cars, we recommend a bias ratio of 4:1. This is the same bias ratio that Audi has provided in the stock RS4 driveline.
Torsen Differentials deliver more torque to the wheels that have more traction. The STaSIS high bias torsen provides a dramatic improvement in negotiating a turn quickly and efficiently. Now your car can be 3 cars in one( front, all and rear wheel drive):
Hard braking leading into a turn [FONT=Arial]Car acts like a front wheel drive – torsen acts like an open differential when its not under power. Wheels turn independently and car control is improved.[/FONT]Mid Corner, Throttle On – torsen delivers equal amounts of power to front and rear wheels. This maximizes grip, allowing more power to be applied at this stage of a turn.[/FONT][/FONT][/FONT]Corner Exit, Hard Acceleration [FONT=Arial][FONT=Arial][FONT=Arial][FONT=Arial]Car acts like a rear w heel drive car – front wheel slip is rediced because the torsen delivers up to 88% of the engine torque to the rear wheels where the most traction is.
