Oh another one of these threads... I suppose it wouldn't be too difficult but if money's no object, just go buy an S4.

Would it be easy or hard? Both hard and expensive; as others have suggested, it will probably be far cheaper and a hell of a lot easier to simply sell your car and buy an S4 of the same vintage.

Buy an S4. It will be less expensive. There's a guy trying to sell a converted project on s4forum right now that cant give it away either...so along with being more than what you could buy a S4 for to piece it, you would also have no resale unless someone knew the car...

If you just want a stock s4 setup, buy an s4. You want a heavily modified s4 setup, build the a4. At that point they both will just be shells
