......being more nice....

RS4 parts that work on our cars as upgrades:

Its:

Oil cooler
Turbos
Intercoolers
Clutch
MAF+ Aribox(only sometimes)

Yes full exhaust including downpipes or piggies like me!
from AWE, ECS, Milltec.... all the same hp gains

The chip thing you already have covered I guess as well as CO's

The list is sooo big Just go to

www.ecstuning.com or www.awe-tuning.com and the faq page has the rims thing covered
as well as many other websites

Swaybars, coilovers (or at least a good strut/spring combo), Stage 3,full exhaust, and then spend any $$ you have left keeping it running.

1st things first, BUY A LOW MILEAGE CAR!!

Take it from someone who owns one with 125K on it... Im well on my way to replacing the entire driveline (and dont think it justbig stuff either, wheel bearings, tie rod ends, alignments, control arms, driveshafts, CV's etc get expensive, fast, even if you can do the work yourself)...

And Im sure once that is done it will eat a turbo.

well if you do get a low mileage B5 S4, I hope you get a good deal (by the way sorry to hear about the S3, glad youre ok)...

on my S4 i bought a new engine complete because I didnt feel a leaky engine and blown KO3's could handle a Stage 3 upgrade

first things first, make a list of what you want to do
-then decide if the car is currentlyrunning sufficiently before you start tackling the bigger things
-have a contingency plan so you can run around while the car is being worked on or just do the work in stages
-engine:
KO4's is the popular thing to doand the smart thing
chip it
exhaust work
upgraded intercoolers(maybe)
upgraded dv's(debateable)
-suspension:
coil overs
-brakes:
bigger...thats all
-transmission:
better clutch
lightened flywheel(maybe)

have fun
