JDM engines are junkyard motors,you buy one and it has 2 get rebuild.You have a S4 car and that website does not tell you what series motors are they............ they just noted 87 to 91 and that is not enough info.You have 2 request a S4 motor.You need more that just a engine.........

Sell the na car and buy a turbo car or if you can buy a turbo 2 parts car then you are good 2 go.Full turbo swaps are getting hard 2 get,hell turbo FCengines are almost non existant and the ones that you see online are mostly boat achors.

Of course if you have the budget you can get a core build 2 suit your needs and bypass all the OEM crap and run a standalone.
