well since they are for an S4 that would mean they are not for the 1.8t - they will not work, sorry - great deal if your an S4 driver

TT = transverse engine
A4 = longitudinal engine

they are mounted differently and use different turbo housings - if your willing to "make" it work then it might be possible, I don't know, but it will not be a direct replacement

sucks you can decline the purchase, just may get some negative feed back.

Never mind - the reserve hasn't been reached on the auction - nothing to worry about
