Hey,
Just here to say hi and that i'm looking for some turbo fun!
Currently running a Audi S4 (4.2l V8, ~350bhp) but want to move onto something with a bit of a turbo rush.

peace and love,
Mac

You would need to be a passenger in them both to feel the difference good classic sti are getting thin on the ground bug sti would have to be the uber rare blue/black prodrive sti or the jdm version it will come down to how much you are willing to spend as prices are creeping up for the good ones .

Welcome to SES.

I must be around the corner from you as I'm in T/C also. You'll find loads of info on here and a great bunch. I'll look out for the S4 on my travels!

Hi buddy and welcome

I went from a fiesta ST to the 05 STI so a huge difference in car, the S4 is a beast already so the best bet would be to try and get out in as many as possible and then look for a good one
