At first glance, there is a mixture of all sorts of modifications that glimmer out on Vincent's S4. But let's start with under the hood...

Like all European cars, an upgraded chip is just power ready to be untapped. Vincent installed an APR chip upgrade, along with an LLtek Intake, JP Engineering downpipes and cat-back exhaust to help the car breathe. Baileys bypass valves frees up pressure from the boost. Transmission work includes a UUC Motorwerks Short Shifter w/ spacers and bearings, Unorthodox Racing Ultra L/G clutch, Lightweight Flywheel, and pressure plate helps put the power to the ground.

The S4 rides on Intrax ARS adjustable coilovers and Intrax ARB F&R sway bars stabilizes and balances the ride. The car rolls on 19 x 8 Intro Forged Swifts wrapped with 235/35/19 Falken tires, while Vincent opts for 225/45/17 Intro Forged Swifts for the track (on Falken Azenis). Brakes were upgraded with a 332mm 4 piston Big Brake Kit from Stoptech, reinsured by Stoptech Stainless Steel Rear Brake lines.

On the outside is where a lot of the beauty lies. Vincent stuck with Rieger's expertise and got the RS4 front bumper, ABT Side Skirts, SGI Rear Bumper, Smoked European headlights and taillights, a
custom lip spoiler and Hagus mirrors.

The interior does its best to enhance the exterior with ABT Floor mats, door pins, Pedals and a Conrero shifter. Mobile electronics are galore in this S4, including a Pioneer AVX7000CD, AVM-8000R Processor, DEH-P840MP CD/MP3 player. Kicker Amps power the MB Quart speakers, and the two MB Quart PWD 304's. In car entertainment is handled by 2 Sharp 7" screens in the headrest, 2 5" Toshiba screen in the visor, a PS2 and a ProSony TV Tuner.
