Time to sell my S4, take a look

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1999-AUDI-S4-QUAT ... dZViewItem

got a 225bhp type r engine in my mini, and it eats my s4 alive and 911 turbo's(quite amusing to see the look on his face!) but it weighs nothing which helps.

yeah done on a ramp, exhaust, dts to drop rear of the subframe, g/box mounts, heatshields, one of the egt"s disconnet the lambda plugs, bit of fiddling and swearing and out they fall.

just put rs4 pipes on mine with no precats, running a 3" miltek system, the link pipes are only 2 straight bits of pipes 63mm o/d if i remember correctly, this pipe slotted over downpipes and inside exhaust nicely. just welded up spare lambda holes, all done in 5 hours including removing pre cats.

for custom discs and bells, go to rally designs website. there bells come blank so just get the right pcd drilled. come in varying offsets and do wilwood discs in many sizes. at very reasonable prices. i'm doing it when i find some cayenne calipers.

i've got myself a pair of rs4 downpipes to play with. already got the precats out. thinking about doing maincats aswell.
anyone down this, how much louder is it? and i read about unplugging rear lambdas etc?/ any of this true?
cheers tom

any one had experience with these boost gauges?? http://www.stratmosphere.com/oct_s4_boostgauge.htm
cheers tom

just put dunlop sp9000's on and very pleased.

the time has come where i need 4 new tyres, so going to get an 18 inch wheel for future brake conversion. anyone had any experience with replica b5/b7 rs4 wheels are they any good? want to keep audi type wheels.
cheers tom

thanks for the help guys, ordered new egt's and airflow meter and got some new dv's and samco hoses whilst at it. Think i'll have the pre cats out next week and map it, how much boost are you guys running safely?
cheers tom

h, new owner of an s4 and too this forum. had an intermittant boost prob for the last couple of weeks, plugged it into the scanner at work and needs 2 egt sensors, also had both banks running lean, would this be caused by egt's or something else?
thanks for the help
cheers tom

thanks for all the help guys, the non recaro isn't putting me off. but the smaller oil feeds are a bit of a problem i understand, can these be changed? also i take it it will have problem manifolds, if these start rattling can anything detach itself and go through the turbo?
Cheers Tom

I didn't notice about the seats to be honest. but they were very comfy. but i'm sure they are different to recaro seats i've seen in pictures. being a pre face lift (what are the major differnces?) will have the early manifold issues?
thanks for the help

http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/199600.htm just got back from looking at her, wondered if anyone knew anything about the car. it only appears to need minor work. ie, antiroll bar drop links, upper rear suspension arm and corroded exhaust were adviseries on it serviced in jan, and a rear wheel bea...

hi, new to this looking to buy an s4, was going to see it tomorrow. i am glad i found this. guess i'll keep looking.
