Alex, you can get more power out of a turbo than you can a supercharger. The figures I saw were from car mags... I don't remember which one (I apologize). And I am in no way discounting the capabilities of your dad's car.

Also, the RS6 has a smooth boost transition (no lag).

No prob dude! I was just being a little defensive...

I'm not too experienced with FI (I'm more an all-motor guy, hence the S2000) so I'll take your word for it.

But in the end, the RS6 is 4WD (my dad says AWD is 'gay') and 'only' 450hp.

That's cool, Arvin. I'll talk to you later. Oh, Lexus would have had sporty cars in their line if they hadn't bastardized the SC300/400 into yuppie golf bag haulers! I wouldn't mind owning the IS300 if they would just beef it up more.
