2004 a4 Ultra Sport1.8t vs 2006 a4 S-Line 2.0t

fly2high · 04-29-2008, 04:26 AM

Considering purchase of either an 04 or 05 1.8T w/ Ultra Sport package or possibly a 06-07 a4 2.0t S-Line. I'm looking for some honest opinions, I currently have a 2000 stage2+ a6 6mt that is in the processes of having k04s put on and am thinking of replacing it with something a bit more on the sporty side but am concerned about the motor differences on the b6 and b7 a4s. Is the 1.8t with the stage 3 kit perform well enough to be a fun car?

The new engine is just a lot more potent. Put the K04 onto the B7 along with a fuel pump upgrade and it should be plenty fun, newer and more reliable.

I've owned a 1.8t and now my girlfriend has a 2.0T s-line B7... and the 2.0T is a better engine, period.

I guess that makes this call fairly easy, I get the a6 buttoned up and start shopping for a B7 A4. TY!

lol, that much I do know. I love the a6, just need to start thinking something a few years newer (i know everyone gets that itch).
