I pressed CTRL ALT C and put motherlode(sims cheat code) a couple of times.... or it was impulse 101 (half life)? (video game cheat codes)....

Yeah I know...life sucks.... being broke is no fun... I think the guy who made the RS4 with RS6 engine has a website somewhere...explains the costs and everything...I will search it for you. I know it costs a lot of money to get something like that....but on the other hand....

if you put a V10 on a A4....you can just take out the 1.8 T sign in the back...and put 1.4 Eco - hybrid - Green power sign thing.... and trick everyone until they see you take off.....

Why don't you just go big turbo on your A4. You can easily beat him.

well the plan is to get an ECU upgrade...then intake and exhaust...and after that....turbo and intercooler... if I get all that done before xmas.. I will be excited! Btw how much power should I expect to get...I want something around 300 HP....maybe 340....

something not too much...but not too little as well....

You need a pretty big turbo to get 340, you would need to address fueling and everything of that nature.

sounds cool... if you think that you almost get twice the power from the stock one..... Quattro system doesn't have issues with more power?

(I always wanted to ask if the quattro system is same on RS 4 and S4) (like same torsen thing...and axles...)

and I guess it will need brakes as well...to make it stop

ratios in the driveline are different but the design is the same. Quattro is a beast it can handle a good bit more than 350hp
