If the cluster etc. came from an S5, shouldn't it have a 8krpm redline on the tacho?

Wow...

S4 all the way...fill neck, acv, uim and definately not RB exhaust... even the link he supplied is only to the catback system not a full manifold back. Even if I were to overlook the redline at 7k, in the pic that's angled to the dash you can just make out the needles for the other instruments. They are pointing due west and the car is off. If it were a S5 cluster the needles would point a little SW. I like how they threw in a bunch of unverifiable **** too. And if he installed any of it the same way he did that cone filter... I wouldn't want it anyway.


*Edit... Also, didn't the GTU come standard with power steering? Where is his PS pump? I bet he removed it without swapping the rack.

This person hasn't sold anything on ebay since April of '04 and suddenly they have 4 items for sale including 2 expensive lcd monitors, a laptop, and a car. Hmmmm.

If he really did the S5 tranny swap, he reused his S4 shifter assembly (I doubt it) judging from the pics...

It's known fact that West Virginians can't drive. They still use horse & buggy.

I like how he was too lazy to remove the snorkel assembly. Also the K&N kit for S4s bolts on, it does not have an afm adapter.
