RE: Might have $10,000 to throw around...
Seems like you've got the engine part pretty nailed down. AWE also has a GT28RS kit in the works for the B6 btw.
If I were you I'd look around the ECS Brakes Section, since you'll need some way to stop that thing.
Make sure to get a boost gauge.

Nope GT28R. I e-mailed them a couple months ago and here's what I got-
ORIGINAL: Dan at AWE
We are working on a GT28R turbo kit for the B6 A4s. We are in final testing right now and are expecting to release the kit by the end of the year. There is not too much public information right now but we are seeing a consistent 300 crank hp on our car. Our goal is to release a plug and play kit, meaning just that, you will not have to source other parts, software, etc. I would be more than happy to email you as soon as we release it.
Thanks and please let us know if we can help you with anything else.

Pending on how much that kit is, I may go with it... But 300bhp is a little skimpy on what I'm shooting for. I think I'll go for the GTRS Eliminator Kit, 400bhp sounds like more fun to me. 
As for brakes... Ohhhh man I hate spending $2,000 on brakes. [:@]

I would never dump that much money into something that depreciates. No offense, but if you arent "rolling in it", it would be a stupid decision to do something like that. I mean, you must be loaded to even consider that... Invest it into something that can appreciate like a house or stock market... You could open up a small business with that much money...
