Congratulations!
I actually looked at that car last time I was in Denver. Tell me they put
new tires on it! There seems to be a good number of used S4tts at prestige,
what gives?
Here are my answers to your questions=

>So here are my questions:
>-1) Clutch seems stiff..I hear that this means in needs replacing but
>doesn't seem to slip?  Is this accurate or normal for these cars?  Should I
>go aftermarket?
A: Wouldn't worry until you put a 6 speed in it :), my clutch is stiff,
stiffer than an A4 for sure.

>-2) What is that funny looking part coming off the top side of the Exhaust
>manifold?  Looks almost like a giant BOV?  Does the UrS4 use BOV's?  I do
>see that it has a singe BPV.
A: Idle Control Valve?

>-3) Brakes...looking for a kit that feels more firm but don't really want
>to track the car...too much
A: BIRA Stage 6.

>-4) Suspension...suggestions here (Will Rarely Track Car)?
A: H&R springs, Koni sport struts (or Bilstien)

>-5) Wheels and Tires what size should I go for on my Summer Tires and
>Wheels?
A: European made (BBS, OZ) 17-18" to fit over brakes.

>-6) ECU Removal..seems you need to cut the carpet?  Should I start with
>just a ECU and work my way up or go for the RS2 Manifold and ECU then do
>the turbo?  Or is it just easier to do the ECU then Manifold and Turbo and
>the same time?
A: I would do it all at the same time. Chipped with no RS2 manifold-
possible burned valves.

>-7) Short Shifter Suggestions?  Stock shifter is like rowing a boat ;-)
A: Talk to Dave Jones at Autosportwerks

>-8) What other mods do people do to take the car to near 400 HP?  Stage3
>MTM is rated at 320HP..how do guys get another 80 out of her?
A: Bigger turbos, headwork, rods at and beyond 400hp

>	- Exhaust? - Suggestions here too pls ;-)
A: Stromung!

>	- Downpipes?
A: Part of the Stromung! Dont waste your money on any other exhaust.
