Default Alright ,I am back again and still stumped on this one topic ... what k04 kit should i get......

as i said last night my motor is almost out and just need to order the kit. I guess i am asking to much, But i want the most bang for the buck as far as turbo upgrades are concerned. I wish there was an easy answer, But there is not. I just do not want to get stuck with a kit that i payed to much for and there is a better one. any help would be great

Do you want just KO4s or are you going full stage 3 (actually,i think it might be considered stg3+)?

Default HP/$$ factor is highest for PEB tuning stage 3- I would say.

def not slow, and I would say has the least money involved. My experience with the newly revised AWE kit is super. HAvent compared it to any other kit though... but as far as FATS, seems to be pretty quick. I would say that driveability is very much comparable to stock. With the "normal" KO4's, I feel that the lag is borderline acceptable for low RPM everyday street driving. I would imagine that although you can get a lot more power up top with bigger turbo wheels, I dont think it would be a wise decision for an everyday stop-n'go street driven car.

Default where should i begin

everyone in peb tuning doesnt work FOR anyone. thats important cuz that measn they arent bias. they just build fast cars. wherever the parts come from, as long as they are safe in the s4 and make it better.
the company is driven BY forum members, FOR foruim members. the research and development is done by people on thier own cars, for their own interests. so this really never factors into the cost.
this also means they hold more knowledge than the typical tuner because all they really care about is the 2.7t in the s4. not the 1.8 or inline 5 or whatever. just s4 stuff (at least for now anyways). see where this is going?

finally. PEB tunng does not exist except for as an entity in this community. at least for now the company is just a state of mind, and has no official structure. but it still exists. search for peb mbc and tdc. docslow one of the higher members in the peb order wrote a great writeup of a mbc in parallel with the n75 along with k03 tuning. something completely PEB. no tuner FWIW has ever sold this as a kit or suggested it. the mbc and tdc idea, although nothing new in the car world, was never developed for the s4 till peb
