This fine example belongs to my best friend, it's SO much faster than my SVT I'm almost ashamed of my car. Chris H, where is that turbo kit?!? 
And those are really 19's he's running. With Bilstein PSS9 coilovers. Etc etc...That MAY be true. BUT, you could also chip and bigger intercoolers on the S4 and be at ~380 HP. just look at the RS4, it's almost the same under the hood.
Or, you could get an A2 VW, throw the 1.8t and the K05 and custom intercooler in and for ~$15k you have a 2000lb car with 280+ FWHP.
i can't believe the kind of VW praise i'm hearing in here. especially because it's not coming from me!
damn do i miss my GTi.
oh, and S4s don't cost 50k. just look on ebay. my friend just sold his for ~$30k (not that i could afford one in either case, soon my friends!)
i'm saving for an S4 avant. can i get a he11 yeah?
