i have a 2000 audi a4 quattro with the 2.8 30 valve and 5 speed manual tranny. i absolutley love this car and i want to build it but im not sure what exactly to do. i originally wanted to drop a built 2.7t and 6 speed but one of my coworkers is a guenius when it comes to motors. he says he can put turbos on it from a saab 2.3t with no tuning needed because those turbos are strictly mechanical. is this true?
my goal for this car is to be able to dump the clutch and light up all 4 wheels. how do i do this without completely breaking the bank? i dont mind saving the money and investing all the time this car needs but i only want to do it once and not have to worry about anything.

can anyone help me with this?

First off any car that you make if your going to beat it up with constant "Dumping the clutch and lighting up all 4 wheels" Your going to have things that your always going to have to work on no matter what you do. 2 it would depend on what Saab 2.3T your going to get to put on the car as they used 2 different turbos depending on the car. Im going to guess that hes talking about using the ones from the Saab 9000 Aero. They are the Mitsubishi TD04 turbo and are good ones. But will probably lead to issues with fitment on the Audi 2.7T meaning that your going to have to change the headers and have them custom made leading to more of an expense. Not sure on that one. and your going to have to buy 2 of them. You have to keep in mind that the 2.7 Isn't a Twin Turbo its a Bi level Turbo. Honestly you would be better building up the 2.7T and then going with the turbo upgrades with the turbos that don't require the headers to be changed. For what your looking at doing you should probably look at buying a different car. Maybe like an Eclipse or Honda that will offer you more options.
