    scotty at Advanced in TX (check Audizine for thread) had contemplated doing this but the $$$$$ for the motor and then transporting it to the US was, i believe, the limiting factor...

    I assume it wouldn't be horribly difficult...it's designed to fit in that space! I would love to do this!! Probably be considerably easier in a S6 as its a similar engine! But if you are serious about doing this you have to do an avant!!

    U still looking for the holy grail?? Lol, buy my complete engine, cheap(as I am not going to do monster build).... Have pat from redline speedworx build it to a 800 HP beast, loba cams, gt30 turbos, compression lowering head gasket, duel fuel pumps, ID 850 injectors, tony at EPL custom tune, yadayada....yes I am shilling for my engine, but considering what I would sell my engine for, and another $12k in work, it will be a gumpertesque beast.
    Crack is wack and I am selling a giant rock.

    US S6's are getting down into the high $20s so this is a very bad price for this motor without any details on it.

    I don't see any turbos, manifolds, harness, etc. and sourcing them woudl be horrifically expensive.

    I love the Vagon, but I am 6-4" and barely fit in the cockpit. The car is fast, and infinitely tunable, there are guys ...ie Henessey (wagon) that make 1000hp+, but even in my current iteration the car chugs gas, albeit I am lead footed. I average 11 mpg. It's leased, I have 12 months left and not sure where I go to after.
