Default RS6 turbos

I have a line on some RS6 turbos from a mechanic friend. The owner of the RS6 ruined his engine running it without coolant. I think I can get these for a few hundred dollars for the set.

My question is will these bolt directly on to the stock S4 exhaust manifold and will they fit S4 piping for the turbos? Currently running an AWE stage 3 kit.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

If he ran the engine without coolant, couldn't the turbos be damaged?

Default ? ok...

they bolt up to the exh manis. turbos need to be modified. RS4 inlets need to be modified. downpipes need to be reflanged. wastegates need to be relocated.. etc

Default Ok

Thanks. I thought there was a lot that had to be done. I emailed Jeff Moss about this, do you know if he can do the mods?
