Default Turbo upgrade?

Hey im thinkin about getting an S4 soon and from what ive been reading all i can see that might go wrong is the turbo around 100,000 miles...i was thinking that i might do a stage 3 turbo upgrade before then but i wanted to know would you be able to use it as a daily driver...im kinda new sorry if its a dumb ? I also am thinking about getting a 01 w/ 67000 miles for 18000 and wonder if its a good idea...

Would be the same for a daily driver, jsut faster. The k04s are stronger so in fact it may be a better daily driver for that matter. Jsut be ready to shovel out the money on the necessary parts.

Yep, i think its a good deal, just have an audi cartified mechanic give it a check over to make sure nothing major is wrong with it, and just make sure that everything is in pretty good condition, cuz that wouldnt be a good deal if the car is in crap condish.
