Ok so your saying I need to be a euro mechanic to pull the front clip, undo the motor mounts, and the bolts to the transmission, then pull the motor. Unbolt the old turbo and put a new one on?
Whats so different about this from any other motor pull?
Ya its a cake walk…lol
If your pulling the motor and put a used ko3 in there you must be living on hopes and dreams. Like the other turbo isnt going to blow soon. Since you got it so cheap put 2 k04s in there and not have to worry about pulling the motor again.

Just buck up and pick up 2 ko4s

I plan on replacing both turbo’s sorry for the confusion.
It’s six speed not fag-amatic
I’ll look into the k04 swap.

very nice, I personally prefer them in blue or s4 yellow but the silver is indeed classy, not that I question your judgment but it is indeed an s4 not that s-series badging on an a4 business?(post a close-up of the badges so I can drool over them)
:picard: Ya caught me it’s an a4.
I wish i could really contribute to this thread but in scrolling down all I’ve noticed is the OP’s avatar
funny i think only once have I seen some one post a WTB thread an actually get the car they wanted.
almost every one changes there mind creates a new WTB
no hate on the S4 vary nice pick up… just disappointed you didn’t join the TDI family
are you keeping the firebird?
Great car. I love my Audi S4, it’s silver too

Great price and siqqqq car, you should pm justin he has to the oem k03’s from his s4 that have like 70k or something on them he will let them go cheap or pm me for his #
The LS1 is more reliable and gets better gas mileage.
You got a good deal but your logic is flawed.

Nice pick up, my grandpa had an S4 APR stage 1 and loved it but his was auto.
LOL @ calling a MK4 TDI a piece of crap, and then buying this. This is the 4 rings of pain X 1000. You will be selling the F-bod to keep this alive.
Even though others have pointed it out, putting a used k03 on this car is a waste of time and money.

The only reason I picked up this car was because I always wanted one.
I know the gas mileage is shittier, and it’s a lot less reliable.
On the upside, It’s beyond comfy, it’s the cleanest car I’ve ever bought, and It’s practical.
I bought the car on the premise that it’s cheap as fuck and I’ll probably never get the opportunity to have an S4 that runs for under $5000.
And when the fuck did I call a TDI a piece of crap? I still like them and think they’re cool cars.
You guys make everything difficult.
Nice car :tup: Once its fixed she should haul ass!

Just because I said Fuck VW doesn’t mean I hate the TDI.
I hate VW personally, regardless if they do make a nice diesel car.
good luck just slides right out.
