the question is why do bmw fans act like RS and AMG are following them with their NA engines?? when we all perfectly well know that the NA engine has been around for over a century..
1. Noone is saying AMG and RS are following M but why are they changing direction particulary RS division?

2. AMG used to build NA engines but before MB owned them, I say MB "forced" AMG to build FI engines but now MB seem to change direction, why?

Re: Forthcoming Audi RS6 talk

1. are you sure that nobody said it?? cause this sounds like it:
Seems like everyone is copying BMW lately, going N/A!

2. AMG still built NA engines after MB took control..and then they went to FI.. and now back to NA.. im gonna tell you why.. the old AMG units are built on ordinary MB engines..to make the engine speciall and to gain power they went with FI.. now they made a whole new engine from the base up.. and thats why its NA.. they will milk it as far as they are able .. and the make a FI version of it..to keep up with the competition..

PS
i dont know why RS changed direction..but then again.. DOES IT REALLY MATTER?

I seen a lot of smilies in this thread and I've been told when you see smilies dont take it serious. You are asking BMw fans about NA and when you say BMW fans that mean you talking about everyone, including me. BMW-dude mentioned it (one person), Im pretty sure he was ironic.

Who says it matters, dont turn this like Im the bad guy. I just want to know why and Im sure Im not the only one, there are a lot of RS fans outthere that rather see FI RS engines and they dont understand why Audi changed their direction.

And regarding AMG and what you just said, some of it I understand but not everything.

Im seeing a pattern here, all new S/RS is using NA, why should RS6 be different? Im sure Audi/Lambo has great knowledge how to build NA engines. They dont need FA.

Re: Forthcoming Audi RS6 talk

Artist, are you sure the Lambo boss said they were helping with RS6 and not R8?

Re: Forthcoming Audi RS6 talk

MB told AMG to go N/A as theyre gearboxes couldnt handle the FI engines with the 7 speeder.
