Is there a reason why no one dares to go outside of K04 tuning?

Default Looked into GT25's
but fitment is an issue. The other issue is oiling. our oil pressure is too high and will cause those turbo's to fail.

Other options are too expensive to think about. 4000 for a pair of turbo's is a little high for most.

There are options out there. Just not a lot of reasonable options right now.

MTM has a kit that moves up to K16's for the RS4, so I'm sure they will fit.

Default Sportec has a GT25 kit for the A6 but can't fit them in the S4 yet...
They're working on it though.

Default ASW...the largest US Sportec dealer that I know of....knows nothing of this kit.
I wouldn't put my money on it.

GT25s would be awesome though.
