That engine bay is beautiful. I'm not too wild about the hood setup and don't approve of the lack of air filters but that is a nice looking setup.

yeah -- the twin turbos that suck in raw air scares me... all it takes is one bug, one pebble or something to completely **** it up. Even putting some mesh filtering on there would be helpful and wouldnt impede flow at all.

Between the hood lumps for the turbos, the exhaust coming out in front of the front wheels (or whatever those pipes are), the weird headlight job, the nasty blue seats inside, and the steering wheel that doesn't go with the rest of the interior, I just can't say I really like the look. Though, I tend to like subtle elegance rather than in your face styling.

I don't know if I should laugh or cry, I hope that car spends most of its life on a trailer. Those turbos are just scary.

He really cant be stupid enough to drive the car regularly with the turbos open like that, im sure hes got some type of screen for them. And yea, thats the exhaust coming right out of the front bumper. Imagine what that car must sound like, twin un-filtered turbos and basically open headers. LOUD. And still retains the german luxury interior. Best of both worlds, although im not feeling the steering wheel.

With two turds and the ported and polished head....I'm going to estimate the boost running on each turbo is between 6 - 11 psi, producing approx. 340 - 420 ft/lbs of torque with 275 - 340 ponies

I think it looks terrible, and given the open turbos probably never gets driven. I think those "moving shots" were even taken in the warehouse it's in. I'll never wrap my head around the trailer queen concept.

There are a handfull of daily-street-driven RS4 conversions in the US, making easily north of 400 hp. So this frankenstein here, assuming it's somewhat competently tuned, should be able to produce 400+ as well.
here's a link pic to Josh Decker/Achtuning's wicked RS4-converted S4:

without all the decals used in photo shoots/events, this car looks pretty handsome and stealthy, w/ little clue to the devastating performance on tap.

You can't put a grill there coz it would suck the grill in

You're joking right? You can't possibly believe that.
