So you are planning on driving the built S4 in the winter? I have never been in one, but I would imagine that it would be scary no?

Winter is when you need the power

It's actually a blast! 500+ hp in the snow with good snow tires and Quattro AWD = TONS of fun!

Wow.

Sucks to read about, can't imagine how it feels as an owner or tuner!

Good to hear that the vendors are backing their product and that the car will return in even fuller form next time around. I will certainly be following this build as it progresses.

Good luck and godspeed.

Summer/Winter!!!!!!!!!! What's it matter once I get my car back I am going to live in it LOL.

But on a serious note I would like to congratulate Jordan and his wife on their new addition to the family!

Re: Project Tial650 S4 complete...

Thanks, Mark! I appreciate that. Nothing has made me happier or more excited in my entire life than seeing my first son come into the world- not even driving a 700hp Tial car, sorry, haha

Hopefully we can get this car finished for you, and dialed in, sometime in the fall so you can rip around some before the snow flies

Motor was lugged in 6th gear under hard boost and 2 pistons melted.

Re: Project Tial650 S4 complete...

Correct me if I am wrong,But from what I have read if a motor was "lugged" would have there have not been a whole motor melt down? This almost sounds like it was running to lean on the two pistions that melted or maybe the W/M failed. But on the other hand these are just some of the thing's that I have learned over the year's to look at first when thing's go wrong.
