1990 S4 Auto, GPW over Black, 72K miles, no rubbies. Previous repairs due to body damage, some rust on the quarter panels, misaligned rear bumper and hood plus other issues. Recent dyno shows that engine is down on HP to 266. Seems like an excessive loss in HP over the years. What HP should you expect for an aged but well tuned S4 motor?
What was the saying: "These cars are meant to be driven (and I guess wrecked) and not just looked at"
The ones I posted have definitely been driven T, and I'm not sure about the one you posted.
And hey, the 86 comes with an extra door! What more could a bottom feeder want?

I haven’t looked at this one yet. 260 to 270 rear-wheel horse power as measured on an inertial dyno with SAE corrections is what I would expect - and have seen - from a near-perfectly running bone-stock S4 auto. If 266 is supposed to be a bhp number then there are some issues.

Looks like it was RWHP. That makes sense then. About a 15% drivetrain loss for the auto.
