the american model is the exact same as the german one.just that the americans made up 200 hp for insurance reasons
I think monster is correct. If you look at APR's website, when they test on the dyno with 93 Octane they measure 212hp. When they use 91octane they measure 200hp.
Last time I was in Europe and drove I remember seeing 95 and 98 RON octane gas. 98 RON is the same as 93 (R+M)/2 which is what we use here. I think it's just a gas difference in the testing.
VW/Audi do underrepresent their performance numbers though. My S4 measures 333hp at the wheels, and that is what Audi claims on the spec sheet.
