It's simply maths.

80-160km/h passing times are taken from 80km/h to 160km/h in 4th/5th gear,it's not simple maths.
That's a good way to gauge acceleration,takes the launch out of it.That's why a lot of serious car mags use some kind of passing times.
So you don't have the passing times,also for your info with the 335i on greasy roads you can break traction at even speeds like 40mph when shifting.
You disregarded one of the most respected car mag in Europe that gave the 335i a win over the S4 and used AMS numbers from a test conducted on greasy roads to reach the conclusion that the S4 crushed the 335i.
