Mazhar Iqbal spent the winter transforming his 2001 Audi B5 RS4 into a powerhouse. When the original 4.2L V8 began showing signs of wear, he took it as an opportunity for a complete overhaul. The engine now boasts a robust sleeved block, ensuring it can handle more power. To further reinforce the build, he installed a custom one-piece girdle and a dry sump pan, prepping the V8 to unleash over 1300 horsepower and a staggering 1600 Nm (1180 lb-ft) of torque.

But Mazhar didn’t stop at the engine. He knew the rear suspension needed an upgrade to handle the new performance. He equipped the RS4 with new control arms, tie rods, a sway bar, and different springs, ensuring a perfect balance of power and stability.

Check out Mazhar as he tears up the track at the Gatebil Festival Vålerbanen 2019 in Norway, showcasing his meticulously upgraded RS4 in a series of thrilling drifts.

Car Categories Involved in the Modifications:

Engine Block and Internals: Upgraded to a sleeved block for enhanced durability.

Oil System: Installed a custom one-piece girdle and dry sump pan for improved lubrication and stability.

Rear Suspension: New control arms, tie rods, sway bar, and springs for better handling and performance.
