Hey guys I just bought my first Audi two days ago and I was looking around a lot of the tuning websites and such. I was looking to get around 400whp out of my 2001 S4. Just wondering if you all had some suggestions as to how to attain that amount safely. I wasn't sure what stage upgrades that would take and good brands to go with. Any help is appreciated.

400whp on pump gas? that's a tall order
400whp on race gas can be had with any stage 3 kit.
You may be able to get 400whp on pump with a VERY healthy stage 3 car, if you're in a place lucky enough to have 93-94 octane available.
RS6 turbos + rs4 cams + upgraded rods + lower compression head gasket + tuning and you should easily/safely do 400whp on 91. That'll be around $10k without supporting mods (clutch, exhaust, intercoolers, etc.)

most healthy stg3 EPL cars make ~400whp
some K04 and more K04/hybrid
especially healthy east coast (93oct) cars....but if you're west coast 91 oct you should probably look into hybrids or larger for that power on pump.

^ what he said. 93-94oct, basic stage3. on 91oct... sigh. not so easy.
i'd say water/meth injection for 91oct+stage3 is easier than all the other stuff tim mentioned, but its arguable.
