It's NA s4, i put it in because it's the only one i could find in my price range and i needed a car for work. I still have the S5 core and plan on rebuilding it and possibly giving porting a shot. She runs great and everything works...well except the driver side door window doesn't roll down, but i'll tear into it on wednesday.

Oh yeah, if you look at the shots of my engine before putting it in, you'll notice the oil lines were replaced with copper tubing. This wasn't a mod, my dad cut the original lines because he though they were some water injectors. He spent a couple of hours making those copper lines. They work though!

Congratulations! There's nothing quite like getting her to FINALLY work right.

Don't do anything I wouldn't do with that thing

Got my post mislabeled as FC3S.NL

Is that the stock top? From your pic it looks like different.

Yeah, it's stock. It has a hole torn on the passanger side where it meets the fender so it'll need to be replaced but i don't have the money right now.
When i first got it, the top was brown because of the dirt that had been embedded into it while it sat at a junkyard. I alot of scrubbing and some stuff called black magic that's suppose to be used on tires made it really shiny!
