mental - those engines are what 365bhp ? but no, I wouldn't ( although I've been considering one of the Audi S4 with that engine, until I found out about the timing chain guide issues that can happen)

Ben, just make sure you get a warranty and the shit is with Audi then, should it occur.

I think that looks tremendous, in a Buck Rogers cartoon kinda way

Pretty sure it would drive like a cartoon too though...

I bought this off ebay a few years ago, definately an ebay special! very DIY death trap.



Still have it, and had it MOT'd today. it's a straight 6 3.5L with large turbo on it. think it makes around 350whp based on other dyno reports of similar type engines.
