Default An A4 with an S4 motor transplant is far superior to a turboed 2.8 . . .

Why pursue a vehicle with inferior power and reliability ?

Default LOLz, who in the e'fff is raving about the B5 S4 except people over in the B5/s4 forum?

Sorry but the truth hurts seem like, huh? It is not overrated but can do exactly what most want not to mention you can remain looking like the soccer mom that is too cool for the minivan =)

Default Re: Are you keeping it a 2.8 or over boring? Who will be fabricating?.....

Do you have an Audizine Account? He's on here as well, but I forget his screen name.

Default that is certainly one way, but not the only way. At least I've BTDT on two ways :)

Hint, the battery location is a perfect middle ground and the stock log manifolds can even be used. That's my future 3rd way.

Default ???

do you mean relocating battery and cutting top of firewall away and placing single turbo there, i am mid way through same project and it is really a pain, i tried remote setup and there was a lot of lag but pulled like a train through top end at 6psi, back to stock for now as i want to top mount it for easy tuning etc, its a pain jacking it up every 5 mins lol

I have seen and read a few posts on this upgrade, but never really read any of the dyno tests, etc. Here is a group that was building a kit to sell. http://www.audizine.com/forum/showth...ur-2-8L-30v-V6

They claim there is enough space at the back of the engine, near the top, the link shows pics of their progress. I am sure if you follow the trail, you can get in touch with them. It is a lot of cash to make this work, from what I read. Good luck and post pics or a timeline as I would love to see this happen. Your better off buying a ferrari off Copart and rebuilding.
