I GOT MY 2002 S4 TODAY!!!
 

I picked it up today after a very hard week of waiting and I love it. It's Santorin blue, alcantara blue interior....freaking gorgeous....Just had to get that all of my chest haha. I think I am going to get a warranty for 1 year (good idea?) and see if I can hold of modding it for a while. thats all for now.

congrats :-) try to hold off on that not modding for as long as you can..
 

because once you start, you can't stop. that's a plain and simple fact ;-)

no, just start modding. chip + DV + TBB + short shifter first...

haha, I have literally been researching for over 4 months (before I even owned the car) on what
 

I wanted to do with it. I want to do HandR with bilsteins, Apr chip with 2 programs, AWE Dp's and Catback and then find some wheels and a M3 lip. I am not convinced on the M3 lip because I have never seen on in person so I have to think more about that one, but the other stuff is pretty close to where I will be in a couple years I think.

Lol! been modding now on this car for almost 7 years...
 

By the way, your overboost issue is a SW issue, not related to vacuum lines.

Thats awesome dude, I know I am a late-comer but I can't wait to get in the game!

M3 lip looks nice. Will have to have it painted to match body color.

yes get the warranty,. if its at 70k miles check the timing belt service, then chip it and bpv tbb
 

then exhaust and so on :o)

get two years of warranty.

Get a warranty to ease you into the excessive spending that comes with ownership
 

It will help you adjust with the initial shock of the repairs and then soon you will become numb to it like everyone else. My warranty covered near 20K or repairs in 40K miles... thats 50 cents a mile in repairs, not including maintenance, gas, and depreciation...
