Default these folks have accualy done an A4 to S4 conversion!

unless you have s special case it may be cheaper to sell your A and buy an S!<ul><li><a href="http://statusautoservice.com/PhotoAlbumPages/porters_a4_to_s4_conversion.htm">http://statusautoservice.com/PhotoAlbumPages/porters_a4_to_s4_conversion.htm</a</li></ul>

Default should be a straight swap but unless you drop in an S4 motor....

The S4 suspension will make your A4 sit higher.

Default if you car isn't drive by wire, you will have to convert to that throttle system

like already said, it's probably cheaper to just sell your car for an A4. Check out tgil's link and talk to Anthony at that shop about what's involved.

Default will cost u and u u'll need patience cause there will be parts here and there that u might have....

order to make the S4 parts fit on to ur A4....unless u have a wrecked S4 to take any part u want from it
u'll also have to rearrange the engine bay a bit cause the S4 a/c system is a bit different from the A4 cause the dryer/accumulator on the A4 is where ur 2nd IC would be on the S4 and the a/c hoses are different.....those are just some of the things u'll need to know

Default Re: pointless...

maybe in your country, but in norway an audi s4 had a price of 1 mill nok, about 130 000 us dollars! In norway the goverment has extreme high taxes..

so it isnt pointless...
