Ah, I was wondering when someone would ask this again.

There's a whole lot of things that need to happen to your car for it to work. It will cost thousands more than you expect it to.

Ummm no, if you wanted an S4 you would be better off just selling the 1.8 and buying a real S4

wow I think its like the 1 billionth time someone posted the proposed engine swap heres some advice just go buy a s4 2001 models are not that expensive and worth it but transplanting a new engine and drivetrain into your a4 is a waste of moolah
