        Wow,my 270 HP S4 will be a baby soon..
        Volvo's new S90 (the replacement for 900 series) will have bi-turbo
4WD >300 HP. 
        SAAB 's new 9000 also have bi-turbo ,>275 HP.
        Alfa Romeo's new flagship also have 4WD twin turbo.

                        We can easily mod. turbo car up to one exact
point,more than that you have to spend a 
        lot of money.
                        For example,the S4 ,any chips can pump them up to
270 HP. but higher than that you need a new
        manifold to keep the head cool. If you want 310-320 HP. you need a
new turbo.  These are
        quite easy,but if you want to go beyond that (above 320 HP.) ,you
have to spend a lot of money.
                        So, 400 HP. for the new S6 may be  possible,but may
not easy.
