RE: 2.8 VS. 1.8T
don't worry about deleting it, ppl will see it and not answer it since it has been covered soooo many times
but to answer your question whenever you have a "T" after the number, then it becomes more fun
therefore i pick the 1.8T over the 2.8

Insuring an S4 isn't a lot worse than an A4... at least, not for me. Maintenance, on the other hand... might kill you with an S4. You'll want to chip it... and when you do, you'll end up blowing a turbo at one point or another. Then you're yanking the motor to replace the turbo's... you'll want to K04 by then, and wham, you're out like 8 grand with labour. 12+ grand if you K04 with all supporting mods and labour. Yeah... S4's are sweet, and tempting... but if you get bit by the mod bug, you'll end up in the poor house.

2.8L is made to look good with mods, 1.8T is made to drive fast with mods. if you want to performance upgrade your engine go with the 1.8T, if you want the car to look good and feel nice go with the 2.8L. Yes I know the 1.8T still looks nice, but what you do to each car, makes the difference.
