My friend has a set of RS4 manifolds that he's willing to sell me cheap. My question is, would they be worth buying, or should I just invest in something like AWE manifolds, if I plan on upgrading my entire stock 2001.5 S4?

Thanks.

but if you want upgraded manifolds why not Autospeed?

Captain Matt, I be

2nd.

Schnell!

I seem to recall reading that the RS4 and S4 exhaust manifolds are the same. Go AWE or ASP.

yep..they are the same exact parts .

Don@STaSIS

and I couldn't tell you why. Head/Manifold gaskets are the same and obviously the same turbos bolt the US and Euro manifolds. Possibly an emissions change, not sure.

Cheers,

lemieux@curbside

the euro version has a bracket accross .

Don@STaSIS

Ah, those super special european only early spoolup and high torque brackets, right?:-)

Almost bought a pair of RS4 exhaust manifolds but realised they were the same part #. After STFA I was able to decide that it was cheaper to go AWE exhaust manifolds then RS4 with porting, polishing and ceramic coating. If you are going to spend the $$$ look into Autospeed and AWE you will not be dissapointed.
