Default Real easy, it's a 2 step process.

Step 1: Sell your auto S4.

Step 2: Buy a 6 speed S4.

Don't make this silly mistake again!

Hard? You plan to DIY? Very hard, I'd guess. If not DIY, then close to five figures, I'd say.

It's hard, but talk to Mark (and only Mark) at AMS if you're serious.

Default Look up Scotts of London - they offered a 6-spd twin turbo conversion for the A8/S8....

Just make sure you've remortgaged the house first...

Default The A8 comes with a six-speed in Europe, and we've talked about this 100000 times on the A8 forum...

No-one has the baytzim or bank account to take it on.
