If someone wanted to buy an S4 and make it 400hp right now, are the parts out there?

Who makes software for the K04 sports? I really haven't heard from anyone who has a car with these and is running. I may have just missed a post or two?

on Ko4s...
I know of a number of people working on Ko4 upgrades and none of them want it discussed publicly because they ALL seem to be in the development stages. If you are working on software and trouble-shooting a car, the last thing you need are 10,000,000 phone calls a day asking you about it.
I'd say by this time next year you will have at least 3 complete kits from shops you know now.

NedK has had his for a while. I don't know if the software is done yet. He never posted with results

I don't know if anyone is at dyno stage yet...
I rode in a car with Ko4s which had JUST had them installed and had a rough early version of the software...sorta like you'd expect...pulls REAL hard up top.
Consider the RS4 stock has 380hp and 420 with a chip. Since the S4 doesn't have the optimized cylinder heads that will hurt a bit but I would imagine with agressive exhaust and a properly worked-out intake/exhaust it would be possible.

Nick, Drop Silver S4 Bullet a line. He has been dynoing his car often
while they finish off tuning. In the past he was running 400+ HP on only half of "normal" boost. It will be interesting to see what he ends up with.
