Many More Mods To Come!
I am so excited to finally reveal my secret project to you all! I thought it would be much more fun to post this as a surprise, was I right?
I have some pretty crazy plans for this car in the future. But for now I'm really excited to start back over with a stock engine in a car that is as light as this one. I mean 13.0s 1/4 mile on a stock turbo? I was very surprised by this. I was expecting something more like 14.0s, just imagine how fast it will be with x4 the power it makes now!
I'm going to try and take my time with this, and slowly increase performance. Every time I add something new to make the car faster, I will go back out and test the 1/4 mile time, for science! I love seeing the physical difference that upgrades do to a car, Oh what fun this is going to be.
Stay tuned, I already have plans for more mods so hopefully more vids coming soon. I'd love to test out a RS2 k24-7200, as I have never ran this turbo. If anyone has one that they want to donate temporarily, that would be really cool to compare it to the 3071R that the car will be getting for it's first turbo upgrade.
Thank you guys so much for watching, and all the support over the years. Let me know what you think about the car in the comments. All feedback is good feedback. This thing is an absolute blast to drive! Can't wait to make more improvements. Love you guys!

I like this!
“Without failure we really don’t have much to learn from”
So clean and well thought out!! The radiator set up is really nice! Cant wait to see more updates in the future!!
Yes, yes, YES!!!! Finally someone is building one of these state-side. Is this one going to have as much juice as the current UrS4? Thank you for taking the time and making a video of it all...and keep up the amazing work
Yes! It will definitely make that much power, if not more! Only time will tell. The weight savings alone will be an enormous factor. This car will probably make my UrS4 look slow one day 😜
I see AAN, I upvote!
facts
just got my 3071r s4 going today and it means everything like this probably means to you. I want to swap mine into a smaller chassis; I can’t wait for the build breakdown to inspire others in the United States to do it too!
An aan swapped b5 has been one of my dream cars for so long. Badass that someone's finally doing one in the US!
I’m already loving this build man great great job and turnout already!
This is way more impressive than you make it out to be. I love the B5 chassis. The way you explain everything is funny to. I’m subscribing.
Dude amazing, I can't wait to see more of this. I'm still in the process of getting my hands on a s4 or s6 with aan. Hope you get this thing going and happen to come to Texas and race some people.
I would love to come out to Texas 2K. But I would definitely need to trailer the car to go that far
For sure need to trailer, but there is plenty of time to figure that out. Getting the car to a state of ludicrous is first
b5 (my favorite chassis next to c40 plus AAN is just magical. love it man i really need an AAN car or 3B car the sound they make is just soothing as hell. love seeing the progress of your builds and skills man!
brilliant project! A red b5 s4 limo ❤ i'm very excited to see what happens next! greetings from Germany
Absolute dream build, I NEED one of these
So good! Love the trunk setup. Beautiful work..giving me some motivation to finish my 2.7t swap for my b6 s4.
Looking forward to more videos and updates! And I also enjoyed your friends reaction lol
Cool stuff! Can’t wait for it to make more power!
Dude, you are such a mad scientist! This is such an awesome build! Keep it up, can't wait to see more content!
keep your work
Thanks! I'd like to try out one of the newer maxpeeding gt3071 turbos. They look great! 👍
My god. This project is INSANE!!! Awesome Q4L. Look forward to this
Finally yay! At least there is someone still doing audi builds especially with a vr5 best audi motor ain't a 4 banger and ain't a 6 banger either but instead a 5 banger and in my favorite the b5 shape 💯🔥keep posting and update is while with this one pls🙏
B5 just isn't my thing but faaaack I gotta get my 94 UrS4 running next year. I miss those noises :D
Have the same year!
awesome build men, saw an AAN and had to watch!
Love your cars! Did you know how much power can hold de auto trans on a urs6 2.2t1995? Its ok 280bhp? Thankd!
Bro just pulled an extra AAN :D If i have money and motivation would build one too, now i have that one tricked urs4 5cyl
That's epic bro! Love everything about this car.
I work with those hoses youre using as your radiator hoses at work, they are indeed very strong and very very overkill😭😂
Hell yah! Stoked to watch along on this one.
This is litterally my dream im so glad this poped up on my page Instead of the AAN 5 banger i was thinking about doing one from from an rs3 or tt rs. But those engine are pretty price or im just looking in the wrong place lol.
THIS JUST MADE MY DAY!
I’m excited for Project laser beam! I love that this is the same car as Christmas 2016?Lol
Yes, same car that we did donuts in, at the Wendy's parking lot on North Ave 🤣 good times!
The b5 is a good looking car.
I still prefer the c4 s4 or perhaps even the 200 20v.
Looks are subjective though.
Fact is, the inline 5 20vs are way more reliable, easier to work on, and you can pull so much power for a 'decent' price.
The 2.7 tt is very nice but....this swap, its better than oem.
Nice!
This is wild! love it brotha!
We're looking forward to see your videos.greeting from Thailand.
I found another b5 with an AAN since you asked. I can't upload any pictures here, but it looks super clean!
Is it here in the states? I'd love to know more! You can send me pics and info through email. I have my email posted in the "about" section on my page. Thanks!!
Awesome work man. Love it! Now, if I could find a used $500 AAN…
I should have been more specific. This was a few years back before covid. Found the car crashed on Craigslist and paid $500 to take whatever I wanted...
Love the rad setup .. ❤
Congrats, Nice build
I was wondering when you were gonna drop this video. The Laser car overall looks really clean. I expected a bit more cutting but it seems to sit well in there. Excellent job on making the engine mounts and attaching it all.
I would appreciate a back story on the car and its history if it isn’t too much trouble.
I’ll DM you on the RS2 turbo as I think I know of a used one for sale. The Volvo I5’s used the k24-7400 btw and folks modify a K24 hot side to bolt it up to your RS2 manifold. Plug and play for oil/water lines for a stock car.
My buddies running Marc’s set up from EFI EXPRESS and she be running 25-26lbs of smooth hard pulling boosterooskis.
Great video and thanks for the updates.
Thanks friend! I had to get the body damaged fixed and get a new fender and front bumper for the car. I was waiting to get all that done so the car would be "complete" for the first video.
I've never ran a 7200, but I would like to try one out before I throw a 3071 on the car. I have a friend that runs the volvo 7400, and it's very close to a 3071.
I bought the verkline front tubular subframe for this car, should take a few months to come in. I'll try and do an in-depth video on the car and show more since I'll have it all apart again.
Hoping to see your car sometime in person!
My buddies 7400 is pretty similar to my GTX 3071. I have a very old 91 octane tune that needs a rework this spring. I imagine the gtx3071 to be much more responsive after a retune from Marc at EFI Express. Old tune had 7A cams, I’ve since moved back to stock cams. Hopefully making the Carlisle run this year. Maybe you could make that?
Be good and great work
@@seandebottis3276 hey man when is the Carlisle event? I haven't had any social media for years so I'm out of the loop but have wanted to go since I'm in Maryland.
Carlisle PA holds the import kit car national shows. Audi and more specifically old school Audi tends to have a very good showing. Probably around 70+ old school Audis. URQ, 4k’s, URS cars, etc… I think it’s the weekend of May 11/12 this year
i’m watching from the sidelines on b5 aan swaps, have you thought about doing 3b intake and cooling setup to keep radiator in the front? id like to remain as much daily-ability in my b5 while having everything of my aan
sick build bro
Love the videos . I 'm looking for a shop or weekend worrier with experience in New York area . Can u recommend someone.
beautiful build… the radiator exhaust looks like robot pants ;¬) where will you duct the air for the radiator from?
Lol, robot pants, that's a good one 😆 I have the car completely torn apart right now making various upgrades and improvements.
Hoping to do an overview video of the car when it's done and show off the new upgrades, including the finished cooling package with intake ducting. I've come up with something pretty cool, hopefully I can pull it off, stay tuned!
You have good taste sir!
I can always appreciate those who state “because race car” and have a gutted interior. Not a race car if it’s got full leather interior lambo or otherwise.
Diggin' the red
Seeing this made my day
Dude holy shit. I need to get up there and see this.
Holy shit y'all are crazy
I absolutely love this. Im building a fullblown b5 track car, and alwahs wanted to use this engine, over the 1.8t
Do you have any info on engine mount brackets or engine mounts?
I believe they bolt strsight up to the 6speed 01e as well?
Any info would be much appreciated
For the engine mounts, I used the 034 adjistable mounts. For the mount brackets, the factory passenger side AAN bracket is highly modified it to work. The driver side is a custom steel mount, but I plan to do the same as the passenger side in the future.
AAN bolts up to an 01E 6-speed, they use an 01E 5 speed from the factory. You just have to delete one of the dowel pins to make the 6speed plug and play.
I have made some decent upgrades since this video, so hopefully, I'll post another one soon. I would also like to do an in-depth video on this project for people like yourself looking for answers on this swap.
@@quattro4life20vt so you can use the factory clutch and flywheel I presume?
This has always been a dream of mine.
I have thousands invested into the 1.8t that will soon be done, but it'll never ever sound anything like this engine.
After seeing this video, it really is tempting to sell everything and do what I really want to do.
The car is a full blown track car.
Ten point cage ,fuel cell etc.
I have no issues doing minor fabrication, anything major though I'd probably have to get done though, which is why 07k is kind of out of the question. Way too expensive to get the engine to fit alone and beyond my fabrication skills.
Any issue with the oil pan fitting, or manifolds?
@nordicbeast this was a big dream of mine also, and it's far from over 😁
Clutch/flywheel is a factory AAN in this video. I'd love to see your car. I've never built a roll cage, but eventually, I plan on building my first one for this car. This build has pushed me to increase my fabrication skills to a whole new level, no point in stopping now!
07k would be cool. I have no experience with them, but there are plenty at the local junkyard, so maybe one day. I just love how simple and easy it is to work on an AAN, inside and out.
As for the AAN, I had to massage the factory b5 subframe to clear the oil pan. It's not much, no cutting, just beating it with a hammer to make clearance. I have recently installed the verkline front subframe, and it clears the oil pan with ease.
As for the exhaust manifold, I have a couple of tubular manifolds that fit, but they don't work because the turbo is too close to the strut tower, and you wouldn't be able to get a downpipe on. I'll be making my first manifold for this car as well. The engine bay is just way too small compared to my C4 S4, I'll have to get creative.
I need to upgrade to a front mount intercooler, so that will probably be next on the to-do list. One of the main questions I get is can a radiator fit in front? A custom shorter radiator should fit, but there would be no room for a front mount, and with the amount of power this car will eventually make, I'll need all the radiator and intercooler that I can get 😅
@@quattro4life20vt thank you for all the info.
I don't really do social media,but I have a ton of pictures,if I can send them some way.
The cage itself I can't take credit for, got an amazing deal on it, but everything else is my own work.
It has definitely been a really fun learning experience, and really looking forward to what you end up doing.
I haven't messed with the 07k either,but they're getting a ton more popular, and I agree with the simplicity of the aan. That is why I love the 1.8t so much. Cheap, and easy to work on, and parts are everywhere. Pretty much everything can be upgraded.
They just don't have that 5 cylinder sound though lol.
Definitely going to follow this for sure.
Hopefully end of this summer I'll be ready to wire the engine and head to the machine shop, maybe by the. I'll make my decision.
I know I'm gonna take a major loss on all the parts I have, that is honestly my only issue with scraping the 1.8t
Waiting for updates, greetings from Poland mate! :D
Greetings!!
Im one of your biggest fans i think you doing great this video is car porn I love just "don't stop" I know a winner when I see one
Hello sir
I need help on rebuilding my AAN. Looking for piston rings for my standard block . Any place where to get them in 0.10 ?
Where did you buy the engine? Could you put that in the descriptions?
I would be interested in how if you rebuilt the engine.
Hi @Quattro4life, love your videos here in the uk 🇬🇧 I need some advice really and I’m struggling to find information online. I have an audi a6 b6 3.0v6 and I also have a 20v turbo engine. Will it fit in there as I’ve seen red lazer project of yours and wondered if it would fit in the newer b6 model?
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciate.
Thanks
I would say that if it will fit in a b5, then it should fit in a b6! I did some measuring to see if I could get the radiator to fit in the front, and I'm pretty sure I could have fit a not so tall custom radiator in the front, but then there wouldn't be any room for an intercooler.
If my plan was to keep the car stock, then I would have put the radiator in the front, and ran the factory side mount intercooler. But that is just not fun! I really enjoyed the challenge of building a setup that I have never done before. Definitely went overkill on the radiator for now, but I suspect that I will need it when approaching 1000whp!
P.S. I have made some monumental changes to the car since I posted this video. Can't wait to post another one, and show off all my hard work. Thanks for watching mate! Cheers :)
@@quattro4life20vt that’s what i thought 💭 I suppose the only option is to give it a go and see how I get on.
I’ve been told that the gearbox from the b6 a4 (3.0l v6 Quattro 6speed) should bolt on as is a upgrade to some of the guys seen on Audi forums, as I only payed £500 for the b6 with a few issues to engine 👌🏻but as I’m pulling the motor it dose not matter.
Looking forward to seeing your next video and as always keep us smiling with the noises that your motors make 👍🏻 Quattro for life…
Ps I’ll send over some pictures once the project of my own takes place.
That's what I wanted to build
the KING is back :D
I'm sad, but happy at the same time. i have an AAN i planned on swapping my B5 A4 with, but i just dont have the funds or tools to do it yet. i was hoping no one else in the us was gonna do it successfully before i got the chance to. life just got in the way of me making that goal happen. i am happy its you that did it though. please make an indept video of how you mounted it in the car with subframe, what clutch kit you went with, if you moved the trans back or not, things like that ive questioned, but not many people have shared the info or its not as well documented aside from a few friends ive made on fb that have done the swap in europe.
If you plan on changing motor internals, go for the naturally aspirated 2.3 20V and throw good rods and pistons in there... It's the same block, with more stroke than the aan. As far as I know, the cylinder head is the same, but the camshafts have better duration and lift as it is a NA... The thing is, these are much cheaper to get than a original AAN code motor...
Check out my old build for info. 😄 www.garaget.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=196330
I should add, the naturally aspirated 7A motor 20V has a different stroke, because the crankshaft is different... The 7A motor should be relativly cheap compared to true AAN, so try getting a 7A Block and Head, leave the camshafts in (will get up to 30HP more at higher rpm, if you want good throttle response, change the inlet side camshaft to AAN-spec, but leave the 7A-exhaust cam in) change the crankshaft to AAN spec for a displacement of 2.2L, throw good pistons and rods in... Add a good k24 or a bigger turbo and you are set for quite some hp... It's also a very reliable setup... Should make more hp than a built AAN with about the same money...
@@that_escalated_quickly2720 i appreciate you sharing the knowledge. i bought an aan long block almost 2 years ago with hopes of doing the swap after seeing how common it was in europe. i have the block stripped and just waiting for funds to buy parts for the cylinder head and bottom end. my aeb just gave up last week due to fuel wash so im stuck trying to decide if i should go ahead and get that up and running or swap it over the winter. i wanted to keep the car daily driveable, but havent figured out how to keep radiator in front. i know martin harp moved his trans back an inch or 2 which would give some space to run the radiator and maybe do a water to air intercooler. i hope he posts more videos about this because i like when people share knowledge in the Audi community and it was my goal to do so if i completed the swap down the road.
@@Stage_59sry to hear about your AEB... Those are good engines... I know a guy in austria who has a A4 B5 with a AAN swap, he has the radiator AND the intercooler in the front as far as I know... I don't know if he had to set back the trans, but I believe he didn't need to... The thing is, the fabrication of the motor mounts and so on is kind of finicky as I have heard, but I wish you the best of luck with your build. If you have "some" money left over after the build, I highly recommend the JHM rebuilt kit for the 01E and if you have even more money left, check out some cable shifters... It really helps with the soggy shift of the 01E... I know a guy with a CAE shifter and the transmission is a blast and comfortable to drive, compared to my stock diesel 01E. Best of luck to you!
that back needs a firewall in case that radiator desides to explode one day. ive seen it happen before and 3rd degree burns over 75% of your body is not fun. nice work!
Great feedback, I appreciate it! The cooling package certainly isn't finished yet, but I need ideas like this one to see it through to completion. At that point, it wouldn't be a bad idea to put some drains inside the car as well!
@@quattro4life20vt yea no worries it looks great. And if you ever take it to a track they will not let you pass tech without a rear firewall basically boxing the radiator in so that nothing can get into the cab if it does have a problem one day.
Laser beam is pretty
Hi man! Great job!!!
What coilovers you have on your URS?
PLEASE
That car just has koni shocks with h&r springs. It could use some coilovers!
How much did you have to modify it to fit that thing in there??
Nice!
Okay im in.
What stand-alone ECU do you use i have a Audi MC 10v
so. can i just put a screamer on the back end of the wastegate like that? or do i have to remap the ecu etc, im new to the world of aan engines, and turbos in general
Yes, you can add the screamer pipe without messing with any software or tuning. The bigger the turbo, the better they sound!!
@@quattro4life20vt may i ask where yours is routed? also, really clean car man looks fire
where do you keep finding the aan engines at lol
Found this one out of a crashed car on Craigslist years ago. Saved it for a rainy day 😉
Salut je posséde une a4 b6 2.5 tdi v6 fwd j'aurai aimer savoir si un swap quattro est possibles a faire merci
This is so cool.
I have an FRP engine for sale. Would drop right in this
I'm interested 👀
Was removing the interior necessary?
Yes, goal is to make the car 1000lbs less than my current car. Should be able to get it close to 2800lbs
curious as to why you went AAN vs 07k?
Very simple explanation... experience! 07k is a great engine, but I have no experience with it, nor do I have one here to play with. I do however have a lot of AAN experience, and parts, not to mention a spare engine and harness at my disposal. I really like the simplicity of an AAN, not to mention the character. Oh and it also physically looks much better :)
My idea is to take the 1000hp setup in my UrS4 and duplicate it for this car. Shaving 1000lbs off of the setup will unleash an unreal amount of potential! Can't wait to feel it!
saw this at Helen 🙂
Damn dude, I wanted to meet you in person!!
@@quattro4life20vt yea man! i wishi had know that was you!
AAN far better !
Does the motor bolt up to the trans without any fab work?
No fab work. Both engines use a version of 01E. 2.7 uses the spacer, AAN doesn't. You just have to remove a dowel on the 6-speed to bolt up to an AAN
@@quattro4life20vt that’s awesome, I’m looking to do something crazy with my B5 😈not 100% sure yet atm. Love your Builds, The Awesome work and Inspiration.. Never stop with the insanity 😜
@victors6868 thanks! This car will be the definition of insanity one day!
Install a roll cage, plese..
Make it wicked retahded
Long boring video please!!!
🤮🤮🤮
pls dont do this in flipflops
What box is it using?
What dreams are made of 🫠. Incredible work as always.
