That's my goal I figure I'm going to need the following:



Intake

Header

Exhaust

High Flow Cat

Full Synthetics All Around

Upgrade Spark Plugs Wires/ Reground major grounds

ECU (pocket logger or Apexi SAFC)

Clutch

Flywheel

?light drive shaft?





Any other things I could do? (besides porting, want to avoid taking the engine out/apart)

87 S4 BTW https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683473.gif



I figure low 15's or high 14's with that much hp. @ <2600 lbs.

Lol, That's why I'm asking I know I'm missing a few things. Like emissions removal, TB mod, S5 intake manifold, an intake manifold insulator etc.



Or I could go the "Lazy" route and just drop in a 13b-T.

vosko 05-09-2007 10:32 PM

well how much do you want ? its much easier to make power 13bt



n/a costs alot!

roughtly 170whp or 190-200 flywheel hp.



If I can do 160whp with what I listed that should be sufficient as well.

dont think so, but you can try

Leetheslacker 05-09-2007 11:39 PM

s4?



throw some stock turbo **** on it and boost it.



trust me, its worth it.

Rotary_Engaged 05-09-2007 11:42 PM

I thought that was a bad idea because of differences between the N/A and turbo engines? Something about compression and stuff...

s4 na has relatively low compression. gotta keep the tune rich for safety, atleast i am.



but really, port a tii lim, and then everything bolts on and plugs right in. easy peasy.
