Default Heh.

Are ya going to do the same thing you did in the tire thread? Solicit opinions until you finally get the 1 out of 10 that agrees with your predetermined course of action?

Default A handful and a lot....

Hardware (turbos and inlet piping) will run about $2500 - $2700 or so, if you are paying retail. Labor can be about 2K or so (as little as $500, depending on the shops around you (i.e. the WMS sale a few months back)).

Of course, your ability to negotiate / grease wheels can always make things considerably cheaper

Good luck. You may want to STFA - I'm sure this topic has come up time and time again, and you'll likely get some good info...

Default Just finished

Just did the install myself (along with rs4 clutch, Milltek DP, and bunch of other stuff). Got a deal on K04's and intake from the group buy awhile ago( about $2000 for all) Not that bad of a job if you take your time, alot of advice from S4 people and many of our sponsors. Now deciding on software as I break in the new clutch. I have MTM now, might just upgrade to stage 3-.

Default Did you have cold start problems?

I spun my fuel injectors 90 degrees from were AWE installed them because of a suggestion from 1 of the S4 guys, and car now runs so much better when cold, part throttle seems better all around also. Plugs for wire harness on fuel injectors are now facing towards the valve covers, or outside towards wheels. Only takes about 1/2 hour to do.
