Default short term = chip and wheels/tires.... Long term I'm gonna....(more)

I'm gonna wait till things break and then upgrade...blow a turbo in six years, buy two K-04's. Need new suspension in four years, get coilovers.

Yeah, I hope things don't break and I don't crash, but this way there is always the bright side. :-)

Default Going to wait and see what APR has......

My goal would is to get the car in the mid 13 second 1/4 mile. I would expect I would need @350HP to get there. Hopefully that will only take ECU, exhaust, intake, and more efficient intercoolers. Of course bigger brakes go with that package. I don't have any comments on suspension until I actually drive it. I will be swapping the wheels for my RX's the second it comes in. Should be an exciting car to tune.

Default Warning...not many wheels are gonna fit this car

That brake caliper sticks out A LOT. Corey S hasn't stopped crying yet. His Niche Pultechs apparently will NOT fit the S4.

Default Then Corey, you'll be back into CSP or Street Mod

In all actuality, even now, with your car chipped, you really should not be in CSP. According to the GCR 99, anything that changes turbo boost (electronicaly) is not allowed. That is why I run in the STU class.

As for the S4, if I get one, I would only change the allowable stock class mods: shocks, exhaust, and brand of tires. Reason being is that I am tired of being in a bastard class with either too few cars to compete against, or cars that even in stock form can tear up an A4 (Type R as an example), let alone now are allowed nearly unlimited mods. Nope, I want to get back into a stock class.

Default Re: Very true...

I tried a couple of different wheels for the winter tires, but ended up getting the Audi original 6x16 wheels.

Default I know I'll be in Street Prepared or something....

And I know my car technically shouldn't be in CSP, either. But, we don't have that nifty little class called STU up here, and if we did, there would probably only be a couple cars in it. Personally, I don't think it would be any fun if there were only a couple cars in my class. Up here, the CSP guys don't care about the chip on my car, in fact, they were backing me on that one. CSP is also one of the largest classes up here, and is very competitive. That makes it sooooo much more fun.

I may keep the S4 eligible for stock class for the slush series in Oct and Nov, but by next year, it'll be tweaked beyond stock class. My other motive for this is to also enhance the track ability of this car. That means suspension and horsepower, baby.

Default I wonder if the 993 "big brake" kit will fit?

Steve, any idea if the Porsche 911 Turbo (993) Big Brake kit will fit the S4? It'd be a damn shame if it didn't!
