to answer your earlier question and you said you want a KIT, get the awe package without the mani's its been developed together, works together and has been a solid deal to work with for a long time plus all the research and development they put into it.

thats crank.. and it is legit.. but on here we talk in whp.. wheel horsepower.. dont get me wrong, AWE's kit will be fast.. but they are closer to 360 whp or so.. with RS6 turbos, a good tune, methanol and other stuff one could get close to 500 whp.. with a good VAST, EPL or JHM tune on even K04's one can get close to 450 whp..

so in other words when companies claim hp the're not measuring whp,so a stock s4 is 250hp not whp.if thats the case I don't know if I want to spend that much money on the awe tuning kit only to get 360whp.

yeah.. so if awe says they can get 460 and 455 then i should say when im completely done with my build and have methanol and all i should have about 600 bhp or so.. so thats a crazy amount different...

about you wanting HP and reliability your eventually going to have to sacrifice one for the other. The K04 are much more reliable then the K03. The RS6 turbos will cost you about $1200 more then the K04 and your also looking at needing your btm end built especially if your wanting a RS6 DD.

wow, I just learn it's hard expensive to make good power on this platform. For sure running methanol to cool the charge will help you pick up some power.
