Congrats Steve... very happy for You, Jennifer and the Girls.
Before you move forward with the Audi, I have a request.
Just 1 thing you have to do before unloading the CL-S... traction bars!...

Nope, just that any work on torque arms may divert time from the IC's.
I can not find that link that provided great information on buffing. I'll keep surfing though. The cabinent I thought I put that and other information has been taken over by Barney and Wiggles DVDs.

I am considering one change down the road. Most people go to K04 or K04/16 turbos. Since the engine has to be pulled why not take it a step further. I'm considering a new manifold and adapting the Garrett GT28R turbos. The ball bearing turbos may offer some advantages over the K04's and should support about 700 HP potential.

Also i think the APR stage 3 uses the Garret GT28R (or GT28RS) for my car. But fawkers want $5300 for the kit.

I thought someone was using the GT28R on the 1.8T kit.

I'm interested in knowing if insurance was comparable between the two vehicles or if the S4 carries a much higher premium? I test drove a blue/black S4 recently and really liked it.

I don't think I would feel comfortable laying out that much for rims that provide no significant performance benefit. Heck, the SSR GT3's are about $530 each and I think that is too much for my tastes. But I don't want to go too cheap either.
