Fuel cut I believe you just get this sudden sensation of a loss of power for about ten miles an hour. Although thats in my A6 so not sure on yours.

From my experience of owning an Audi TT 225, Audi RS6 Avant, Audi RS4 B7 Saloon & currently an Audi RS4 B7 Avant from new, none of them had been restricted/limited to 155mph from the Factory, so you would'nt have any problem touching 190mph in an RS4. I know someone that had been a Passenger in a totally Standard RS4 B7, which went straight up to 175mph, with plenty still left in it.

I had a friend that had a Opel/Vauxhall Calibra Turbo, back in the mid 90's, they were'nt bad Cars in their Class, speedwise, but from what I remember of it, the Speedometer was'nt very accurate at all, they were'nt very reliable, they did'nt handle very well & they looked terrible, as the wheelbase was far to thin. I dont really think that people realise of how the RS4 is in a different league on performance, build quality & handling to most 'run of the mill' mass produced everyday Hot Hatches/Sports Cars.
