A brief History of the Audi 5 Cylinder
The Audi 100 C2 was the first chassis the receive the 5 cylinder petrol engine designed by Audi (a 5 cylinder Diesel Mercedes variant in 1974 was the Genesis).
From here on the 5 cylinder was made in variants in S/RS form in the S2 Coupe, RS2 Avant, & S4/S6 Sedan.
The design was then used by VW in the Eurovan, Jetta, & Beetle in small displacement form to current day.
The design is being used again in the Audi TT-RS and the newer Audi Quattro Concept car.
After a 7 month hiatus due to personal issues I will be back updatig this blog..
Bringing everything back online knocking the dust off the keyboard. In the meantime I went back to the car that made me an Audiphile, I purchased a 2002 B5 S4. In chipped form its on par with the Porsche Caymann S, and slightly slower than Godzilla himself the GTR.
