Default RS04 Upgrade

Anyone know if AWE, Curry's or APR offers a warranty on labor/parts for the RSO4 kit? Given that you would lose your OEM warranty there is more on the table than just the cash outlay for this system.

I hear you but there are some places that do pony up and offer warranties.

Take Lingenfelter. They offer a 2 year warranty for a C5TT 800hp street legal, emisson legal Vette with a 0-60 in 1.9 sec, 1/4 mi in 9.2@150.

I had a warranty on my 800hp Supra thru Altered atmoshpere in MD. Another thing to condsider when you do mod...just curious if any Audi tuners back up their stuff!!!

I am sure it is bundled into that price and may account for some of it but what car can beat the 800LPE C5TT for $150K? Not even the almighly one off 830 TT Viper GTS...amazing a car that quick has a warranty.

This car even beat a F16 in the 1/4. 9.2 sec to 10.3 I believe.

Default AWE's warranty

I believe AWE has specific warranty terms for their kits and labor if they install it.

Default Re: AWE's warranty

Your correct:


AWE offers the following warranties on our kit components:

6 months on the turbos
Lifetime on the headers
5 years on the balance of the components.
We suggest 45 hrs to install the full kit, 42 hrs to install the kit
without headers.

Default 3 hours to install headers on a motor that is completely out of the car already.

Really, that is some difficult ****!! 3 hours for headers, hmmmmm
