    Well... since you were aiming for an S4, why not slap on some S4 front brakes and try to find some S4 Recaros?

    And if APR puts out a BT kit for the B7s at Waterfest, get that and you'll have an S4-killer, but without the crazy weight & fuel consumption penalties!!

    Tah-daaahhh!

    If you got the dough, /\ this idea /\ wins. Except instead of S4 brakes, do a proper BBK. Then the car literally beats the S4 in everything except the drool-inducing exhaust note and engine characteristics. Yours will be faster though. :)
    Edit: Fast audi squeezed in between me and the post I was talking about. His idea works, too.

    Exactly. We've got a saying in our Formula SAE shop at school...

    "More power makes you faster in the straights...less weight makes you faster everywhere."

    Hey Auditude let me know if you find out the cost. If it's under 5k I might even do it. I love my car but hate the auto.
