The 3.2 & 2.7t are not that much different, so it should not be to hard to swap, the electronics will be the PITA.
But why? You will still need to do custom intercoolers, piping, etc...
so by the time you are done, it would be close to the TT kit for the 3.2
Isn't there a supercharger it for it?

RE: just wondering if ne1 knows if its possible
those engines are completly different, not one thing in common whatsoever. The 3.2 6cylinder in the s3 is a VR6 not a v6, it is also horizontally mounted like a FWD car because it uses haldex not quattro. i think the kit you saw was the HPA or HPG (same kit) and it makes killer power. That is primarily because the vr6 is a better 6 cylinder design than the traditional v6. go to www.eiptuning.com and look at their kit for that engine. I used to work for them and that car is pretty insane, they had a showdown about 2 years ago with the eip vs hpa car and the eip won. if you paid a shop to do it, you could prolly just go buy a a3 and turbo it for what it cost.

You're not going to be able to find a shop that's going to give you a deal for it. You'll have to find someone that does custom work for audi's, and you'll end up paying more than the cars worth with that power plus you wont be able to get the money back when you sell it down the road. Just upgrade the turbo on your A3 and you'll be more than happy.
