Insane Audi 80 Quattro

I think the car makes over 800hp if I'm not mistaken. Lots of power and all wheel drive... gearbox soup anyone? Looks extreamly fun though.

Re: Insane Audi 80 Quattro

Ohhhh!! you have found some genuine swedish insanity!! 13 gearboxes went thru that car in one season they didn´t leave it in one piece.. 760hp i belive it was, the car has a audi 20valve 5cyl 2.2litre engine orignaly 230hp, standard in audi s2 up until 94 or so. I´m active on a wedish internet forum there is a thread there about this car, and the lingo in that thred is very different for example:
snigel snail in english = turbocharger i ques this is used in english too

växellåda, gearbox in swedish =fläskkorv which means directly translated, porksausage (there is no english word for it)

and much much more very amusing too read..

Yeah, that car is insane. They can light up all 4 tires thanks to the huge snigel.
