2004 Audi A4 1.8T CABRIO

[NIck Miller]

I myself went big turbo original (BP) engine.  Its a lot of work keeping up
but its fun.  The ford small block is a bad choice imo unless you want to go
to the salt flats or drag race.  Tooo heavy.  Aluminum v8s make ok sense.

Many options to go fast, but costly.  Flyin miata fm2 or begi s3 is a great
setup to run though.  Loooove these cars.

But a stock nc with power top is just a really fun enjoyable ride.
Mazdaspeed bumper kit makes it look beautiful as well.

Ok, done with derailment of thread : )
