yes, these are from our bigger brother.

Nice one mate [img]images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] any noticeable difference in torque/bhp over the OEM parts?

Andiroo

That looks like a major bit of heart surgery!

How long did all that take? Any tips for those of us thinking about attempting this?

I'm in two minds whether to save my money and buy a RS4 on the advice of a dealer that they should become avail for around the £30K in 6 months.

Or go all out and spend around 5K on my current S4 and kit it out with RS4 engine parts to get 400+bhp, new recarros and improved suspension.

andiroo: yes, but I don't have any dyno-graph though [img]images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

golich: it took several hours, as there are some minor mods needed...


but guess what just came in with the mail???
a pair of K04s [img]images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
yuppiiiiii..... I think I should be installing it next week or so....
you would never guess how much I paid for them

Nice one Keyser, I'm doing the same shortly, where did you get the hoses from?? Ive spoken to Awesome GTi re APR's kit which costs £190 - what did you use?

3" VOLVO Truck hose....

here are the turbos.... S4's K03 vs. RS4's K04

How much did you pay for the turbos ?

you don't want to know, I promiss you [img]images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] [img]images/graemlins/biggrin3.gif[/img]

e'mail?

Keyser,

You've got to do a full and detailed article on this for us please please please. Who are you getting to do the work?

Can you just bolt those blowers on? or do you have to have the ECU done?

What mods did you have to do to the IC?

O O so many questions. I neeeeeeeeeed more power! [img]images/graemlins/jump.gif[/img]

[img]images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] golich mind my location.... I'm not from UK [img]images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
but a write up, once everything is done....
no problem at all [img]images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] with pleasure

ECU: If you would like to just install the K04 on and that's it.....
it would work.... but to get the extra power over the K03 requires some trimming on rollers.

To get it up to 420HP requires more stuff than just K04s though......
you need injectors, intake manifold, piping, fuel pressure...etc...

Great work... fearless approach. I wish I had guts...

I like others look forward to the write up
