[Biturbos4] Intereference Engine in B5 S4?

[Grant Lenahan]

nearly every modern audi is interference.

The B5 S4, at 5 valves/cyl is in deed interference.

every 75k (ignore the manual which may show as little as 60k or as  
much as 105k)

Dealers charge about $1400-1600 for a complete "nose job" including  
the serpentine belt and all key parts.

I paid about $1100 indie. in a very high rent area.
