Default More HP 400+?

Has anybody got 400Hp out of an S4? What does it take? I only ask becasue APR has a kit for an A4 1.8T that gives it 155Hp/L and if the S4 got 155Hp/L it would have 420Hp.

Actaully APR also makes a kit that gets 172Hp/L, that would be a 465Hp S4.

The goal should be getting the most power on as little boost as possible

Default You are confusing requirements and implementation. Goal=max power with good longevity.

At the philosophical level I don't care if that's lower boost or magic powder in the fuel....

I'm not arguing that lower boost is probably better...just that it's not really a goal.

Default Silver Bullet S4 has gotten over 400 HP (according to a dyno) while running

only 1/2 boost. Full boost should ramp his HP to over 500, but time will tell.

Default DAMN SEMANTICS... Your right though..

KO4's are in the future if my K03's go. For now I'm looking to milk all possible power with what boost the K03's could safely put out...

Why not a big Garrett ball bearing unit?
