Default Would you buy a 2.8L A4 turbo kit?

With all this talk about a 2.8L turbo kit, I just wanted to see how many people would actually buy one if a reasonably priced (lets say around $5000) kit with tuning came out (assuming HP would be more than current supercharger kits available). My 325i is too old to turbo charge without dropping lots of money so I am looking into audis now. I just want to see how many people want to add more power to the 2.8.

I would love to have one. If I had a spare 5 grand just laying about, I would get one and slap it on my car. However, it's christmas time, I just bought my car 2 months ago, and funds havn't built up yet.

Must be one of those $20 turbos from China.


You do understand how much a real turbo cost?
