i am not trash talking any unmade kit............ i am trash talking as you put it something that is not feasible for a regular guy to mass produce......


if apr/ecs/giac or some larger company took a b5 s4 and took about a yr to do r & d i think there could be a great kit out on the market for the s4......... but if say i took my say 10grand to build my car and had someone do a kit for me....... then said "hey there are about another 1000 guys looking for something like this, lets sell it"....
it wouldn't be feasible

i never said i was going to buy the first kit he trys to sell i dont plan on upgrading my turbos till they either blow or in at least another year or 2 and by then it "will be proven" if it worksouts...and hes having someone who has made countless files for different setups on the S make up an ecu for him.

and if i would get it i wouldnt go to you for help if something went wrong anyway you tried to charge me 50$ to solder two wires together who knows how much you would charge to even look at my engine.

and if youve been into car for 18yrs great for you but that dosent mean anything and i never said it was easy to work on these cars you just think you know so much more than any of us on here just cause were younger than you so you think you can talk down on us or well me

its auto(tip), wish it was a stick but o well. Its got the little buttons on the wheel to shift with. It seems rather hard to find good S4s around here. The one at my work is a stick but its not that nice. I think it will look ba if i tint it, black out the wheels, tails, cc mod, red calipers... and I love the avants so it works for me.

Hey betes, hope you didnt go down, everyone peaced about 10. That black S left about 5 min after I sent you that last text, I looked at my phone and it was dead, pos razor or however the f* k you spell it. Asked him if he saw ya, he said possibly but he had no recolection of that day... get it! There were 4 cops in the parking lot, blocking the main part so people didnt hot rod I guess. They were on the loud speaker sayin that if people didnt order food then they needed to leave, and if they didnt they would be arrested. A ton of cars, had another AF member with a 2.8 A6 show but I rode down in my buddys SRT4 so there was no more than one audi at a time. Wanted to drive but didnt cause of my front suspension woes

Damn 02, u and turbo have been at it for like 3 pages now, lol.

My dad is now telling me he really doesnt want me to get the S, he is so much against me getting that car in fact that he offered to pay half of my bill (including lowering springs, shocks, sways, and the Febi control arm kit) if I agree to keep my car. A deal thats hard to pass up so I guess Im still gonna have a slow A6... but it will drive like a proper sports sedan, and look like one to
