OK, so i had the weekend to kick over plans here. As noted last week, i may
be selling my unfinished 1990 90 20v turbo project that's 75% done.
Although there is interest in the whole package, i'm clearly not going to
get anything close to what i have into it... that's a given. I always
thought i'd like to RS2 my 1994 S4 however. Since I have both IM and EM as
well as the turbo, all currently installed on the engine in the 90, i may
just swipe them off and install them on the S4, then sell the 90q. Yup, that
would cost me $$$ on the package, but at least i'd satisfy my need for a
faster Audi.
Questions are this...
The S4 has been dead reliable, but it has been relatively babied and not
driven much more than 4000 miles a year. I'd still not drive it all that
much with the RS2 items installed. But has anyone had any issues by going
this route? I certainly don't want to comprimise the dependability of this
fine car. It currently has 115k miles on it, the engine has excellent
compression, no smoke, no noises etc. so i think i'm dealing with a sound
engine as a basis. I do not intend to track it or run it hard, just some
short bursts ont he turnpike now and again. Any thoughts??
As far as the intercooler, which is currently stock, what's a good upgrade
that won't cost a ton of $$$. The $900 turbonetics IC i bought for the 90 is
far too big for the S4... i think, so i'd need something a tad more common.
That's all for now, i'm sure i'll have more ??? later, thanks!
