Now here's an even better idea:

Put the motor from a 200 or an s4 into a coupe quattro.  And do dthe 2.5 liter conversion.

Just havin' s2 dreams...


As a coupequattro owner, I have looked into hp upgrades.  Either upgrade that your talking about will cost big denaros.  As soon as the motor is opened the cost goes up.I don't have any real figures, but a while ago, someone on the list said that Ned had dropped a turbo motor (20v?) into a Coupe Q for a customer.  The bill was something like $10k!

Just ask Glen Powell, who is doing some major motor work if you want some realistic cost data.
