That's a VR6 2.8, completely different animal from the 30V 2.8
VR6 is a 15 degree offset (really an offset inline 6) in a transverse configuration and the 12V/30V from Audi is a 90 degree V6 in a longitudinal arrangement.

they have to come up with manifolds first. A VR6 exhaust manifold is only on one side...
because unlike a conventional V6, the VR6 has all exhaust exiting one side. Same for intake. Anything is doable with fabrication. Just not cheap if a one off.

I thought that was called an S4? :)
Seriously, if that particular kit were fitted to a 30V V6 it would have almost no parts in common (maybe not even the same turbos) since the 30V is longitudinal and has two separate exhaust manifolds with an intake manifold in the middle of the engine versus the VR6 which is transverse with a single exhaust manifold on one side and an intake manifold on the other.
