Where to find parts?
Just picked up an 2002 S4 Avant. ***** clean. I picked the car up from my brother and it has the "K...something?" (any help?) turbos off the 08 RS4, Miltek exaust cats back, Koni suspension, Stoptec. Brake Kit stage 2 I believejust the front. I think thats it, but anyway I have always had an easy time finding parts with JDM imports and this is my first EURO and I am having a hell of a time finding parts and even worse time finding someone with a good knowledge on the S4. So anything would be nice.

RE: Where to find parts?
well past 2002 the rs4 dosnt have turbos, just a v8 instead of the v6 in our cars. The cars stock come with K03 turbos, and the same model (b5) rs4 came with K04 turbos. Upgrading to K04's or GT series turbos is usually refered to as stage 3 or beyond.
I would HIGHLY reccomend reading the FAQ and other stickies at the top of this forum. If you still have questions try searching, repeat questions can be frustrating. The people here are very helpfull and know their stuff. If you run into a problem with your s4 they can absolutly help you out. ALSO there was just another stickie made that has a list of audi websited that sell parts (both performance and stock) and also some sites that share alot of b5 info. I think its still here if you just scroll down too..
As for your car, youhave made a great choice. the b5 s4 is a fun car and responds very well to modifications. It sounds like someones allready started. the catback exhaust is a common thing and milltek is wel known and great quality. As for the turbos, usually when you go to K04 turbos from the rs4 it involves about $10,000 of other up grades including fueling, downpipes, usually intercoolers, new software, definitly new TBB, new diverter valves, etc etc etc. The kit alone is usually about $ 7-8000. So double check on that, you could have new turbos, but it sounds kind of doubtful unless you left some serious stuff out. Also check if your car is chipped! That is another huge part of upgrading the s4. If you had a chip your car would be "Stage 2+". By the sounds of it you must have one haha
Congrats Welcome to the s4 community!
