3L B5 S4 turbo
Hello I'm New here and looking into selling my S4 and getting into a e55

Looking to spend 25k because that is all I will probably be able to get out of my 0 mile on the new 3L built s4 of mine. So my main question is can i get one of these into the low elevens with-out nitrous?

you can, but it will cost you arm and may be a leg Audi tunning is much cheaper than Mercedes.

Some stockers here are hitting high 11s already. Mid 11's certainly seem pretty easy to obtain. If you budget is only $25 you may be shopping a little bit to find a good example. A coworker bought a 04 with 65k miles for 21k, turned around and sold it for 24k. Made a quick buck. He does that sort of thing.

I do the same stuff I'm 21 and have had the audi since i was 17 so... it time for something new. funny part of the matter is i have only put 10k miles on it since i bought it. Its always in the shop. but next week it will be done with a fully built stroker motor and turbos off the audi rs6, or i have a single billet t76 off my old turbo m3. The car put down 550whp on 23psi and e85 on a bone stock 2.7 motor so now it has ca built 3L with carillo rods diamond pistons and big port heads and cams, should be throwing 29 psi at it. so it should be well over 600whp. but the thing is I'm finishing school and want some thing more streetable. A tilton twin disk is not that. so its time for a mid 11s automatic sedan, and a e55 with exhaust and pulley/ tune seems to fit that criteria.

crank pulley, ECU, H/E with its on reservoir and coolant circuit and upgraded pump. and Throttle Body or Shorty Headers should be enough.
