IT is nice seeing someone doing it though.


If they halved their prices I would certainly consider it for the RS4.

Bit like a CSL then....

Add £20K premium over a standard M3 for an alcantara interior, 15hp and some weight-saving...

;-)

Cheapest S5 on Pistonheads = £37K

So you're looking at ~£50K for 500hp. But of course, then you'd need the brake upgrade and the suspension kit....

Oddly, MTM don't list the conversion as available for the RS4....

From the rumours I have heard the RS4 engines that have been done have let go hence the huge cost
