£20k?? Gulp! Ive got a set of genuine RS6 turbos that have been rebuilt by turbotechnics and modified by MRC to fit the B5 to go on. Looking forward to getting them fitted. Just need some ****** downpipes
Yep still on S4 heads for the time being but i have a spare engine here that im thinking of building up. To be honest though, i'd be happy with 500>550bhp. I want a very fast accelerating car. Ive chased numbers before on a previous car and lost sight of what i was after. The car was so fast it was undriveable. What do you reckon, rs4 rods, lower comp gaskets and 2.4 heads?Its really closer to £30k :-( due to having to redo work etc
rs6's with a good map will see you past the 500 mark, you are looking at around the 530-550 on s4 heads (thats if you are still running them)
Plenty of down pipes to choose from. Just depends on budget.

I wasnt collecting bits for long. I was quite lucky finding the bits. The hardest and most expensive bits to source were the rear quarterswow thats awesome !!!!!
stunning colour choice and brilliant work
how many different rs4's did you have to get the parts from and how long were you collecting bits
Mate, ive spent nowhere near 20k, im not that mad. Dont think ive even spent £5k including the price of the car. Im thinking of treating myself to an rs4 too later on in the year. Went out in a mates 600bhp rs today and it was unbelievably quick. Cant wait to get my turbos bolted on nowjust wondering why didnt you just go out and buy an rs4? seems like alot of work to re-create a car that already excists.
i mean, youve spent 20k on this? that would easily buy you a very tidy rs4.

Eh???
Kev- Its Lambo baloon white pearl
The amusing thing about that thread, is people suggesting that he should convert a standard A4 or S4 model rather than an RS, when ofcourse an RS has to die anyway to give up the panels.
Jimbo on SRS broke an RS recently because he couldnt sell it. Someone else sold his to Unit20 who broke it for parts too. So both of these cars will have provided panels to mod someone elses B5, hows that any different to just modding an RS to start with?
