aFOURce is an unknown quantity at this point
Really? I know I can get a quick boost with a new chip for $450 or so and as I have been educated my B6 thank you Carmine914 will easily accept a turbo upgrade without having to replace pistons and re-pipe it etc. How much does an S4 go for in condition let's say same model year 2005?

If you're A4 is the one in your avatar, it's a B6 model. Being a 2005 I think it came from the factory with body-color painted lowers (rather than black plastic) i.e. side skirts, bottom section of front and rear bumpers, which will save you some money when going for an S4 look. All the previous suggestions are a good way to go if you just want the S4 "look". To have the performance of an S4 you're gonna need a stage 3 or higher turbo kit. My B5 with a GT28 turbo was slightly faster than a B6 S4.

My brother had a B6 A4 and added S4 door blades, a blacked out grille, chrome mirror caps, Caractere front bumper, and painted his lowers (his was an '03). It gave it a clean look without being an S4 "clone". Wheels and a good suspension don't hurt either.
