that was on here a while ago, rollcage and everything.

Turns out I might not be able to take the evo on La Carrera this fall. Might put the money into the RS4

Default lol...dude, the MTM blower alone is $50k USD.

try closer to $100k for everything, if you're including the full MTM conversion (with installation), fees, hotel, shipping, fuel, tires, etc. And that's IF you can actually get the conversion done in time.

Default It depends...

if you replicated the RS4 Clubsport, count on probably around $200k or more (including price of RS4) if you count labor.

You could probably do it for less if you bought less spendy, non MTM parts. I'd be fine with Stasis parts over the crazy $$$ brakes, suspension, and clutch the Clubsport is running.

I'd skip on that lightweight flywheel too. It makes a ton of noise at low speeds and isn't driver friendly.

Default important parts are FIA cage, hood pins, window nets, and fire suppression

then its performance. Car needs to run reliably at 180+ thats the hard part.

I never drive the RS4 anyway, it would be nice to turn it into a gutted track car

Default Not that hard if it is gutted and the weight comes down...

The STaSIS parts, eliminating the weight will get you a long way there, IMO.

I would be happy to wrench on that project!

If that's what you need, contact Champion Racing. They've already done that to an RS4.
