Finally have some time to work on it, so i should get it together by spring. Newplans are as follows:
4.8
China studs
Pac springs
Stock rest of longblock
Th400
3000stall (might change that)
96lb injectors
Stock tank/pump feeding surge tank, two 044's
Twin holset hx35's (internally gated)
Hptuners 3bar sd
No intercooler, water/meth for higher boost
E85

Goddamn that's a nice interior

Im going to be using the gm ecu to control most engine functions, and the factory audi ecu to run the dash. Luckily the stock audi motor runs on a 60-2 crank trigger which is the same as 58x. To piggyback off the 24x sensor, ill need a 24x to 58x converter.

Pretty excited about this. Just saw a puff of blue smoke on a cold start the other day on my 06 s4. Don't wanna rebuild that pos so was thinking an ls swap would be great. Actually get some decent power into that pig. Do well man I'm rooting for you.

Thanks. Im trying to have as much of the oem and comfort stuff work like it should, so you can just hop in and go

The other Audi in post #12 is an RS6. He caught hell for taking out the TT V-8 out of it. However the LS made more power. Lol. It burned pretty bad not too long ago but he was building it again.

Love seeing this stuff. I had a V-10 S6 and it just got boring after awhile. Wanted to buy a new S7 but just couldn't void the warranty on a 90K car. Bought a Mustang and voided the warranty the day I got it. However I can replace a Mustang motor or trans for 4K or less. Audi starts at 15K.

Look forward to seeing the progress.

I know Lingenfelter makes a 58x to 24x converter box, but I don't think there is a 24x to 58x converter box out there. It might be easier to go with a Gen IV engine which already has the 58x trigger built in

BoostForBreakfast

Im thinking ill use an Arduino and see if i can get it to translate. I already have the gen3 ecu/harness so if it comes down to, ill go aftermarket with the tach.

Any further progress? I plan to do this also but am going to retain the awd with a custom bell housing on an O1E. That is the plan at least. I am hoping you get the electronics sorted as it would be awesome to run like it was made to be there.

Engine and ljms stage 2 turbo cam (226/231) ordered and on the way. Also got and ls1 intake manifold and the hood closes now

Changing plans to twin hx40's instead of the 35's and two 450's intank w/o a surge

Where are you going to mount the oil pump for the turbo drains? Running it back to the valve cover or into the pan?

Really diggin those motor mounts.

BoostForBreakfast

The motor mounts are cx racing lsx to 350z chassis with a spacer on the drivers side. Ill figure out where the oil pump will mount once i mount the turbos. Im thinking ill have the return spray into both valve covers

BoostForBreakfast

The cam and engine showed up! Ill have pics soon. Also ordering a CK rmvb and a few more trans parts today

BoostForBreakfast

Some more pics. Installed cam, studs, springs. Waiting on new melling oil pump and front sump pan
