2.7 bi turbo into an s2 coupe?

[speeding-g60]

the Ringlord car is a Coupe Quattro. single turbo 2.7 motor.

Mike Rombotis is the builder/owner.

Regarding Rs4 gearbox and engine.... Mounting wise the gearbox will mount straight in and i suspect engine mounts will be the only real headscratcher (possibly be similar location).

IIRC, Mr Simmonds was telling me about an A1 replica Quattro in ireland which had the rs4 engine and gearbox fitted.... the RS4 has the same subframe as the original Quattros from memory..

was that the one that was up for sale a few months ago for some insane price?

you beautiful man. I was just looking through motorgeek but was searching for S2s and coupes, not the 90q

300hp is easier to fit.

Bry - that should look good once done, when are you planning to have it finished?

That would be an S2 Coupe with a 2.7 BiTurbo engine from an RS4. Someone was mad enough to make this a reality.

any links to more info matey?

put it in the back with water cooling, oil cooling and fuelcell in the front. source the gearbox from an r8 somebody should have crashed one by now, that would be a nice project

Now THAT sounds like an epic plan. Bet the gearbox would cost about the same as an S2 though

Absolutely no point in putting it into an A4 quattro.. just go and buy an S4! However, I like the idea of it going into a CQ/S2. No point wrecking an S2 though.

I agree. He'll end up changing so much he'd be better starting with a cheap cq. If he goes to this kind of lengths I'd think a full respray would be on the cards too

Jamo - cheers, i'll have a nosey mate

Patrick, have you any idea if the process was documented on a forum anywhere to give us an idea of how crazy it was? I'm guessing you'd need to change the gearbox, diff, suspension, wiring loom, brakes, fuel pump... just for starters.

Rob - WTF is that?

Thanks lads. I personally think it's a bit mental but he has the offer of the 2.7 engine (RS4 he has told me) and wants to use it for something.

Bry, that's a beautiful sight to see. stevie dubbedup just got an A8 4.2 quattro and that's a sweeeet engine. Maybe I'll suggest he sticks it in a cq and see if his missus strangles me?

Paul - I had a bit of a search and couldn't find a tale of it being done before. I'll maybe look again.

Looks easy enough.
