Default Update again **Enemy content :)

Well been making a little progress tuning but since i have not finished the damn manifold, i have the leaking one on and its making it very difficult to tune. I also found a very big boost leak and I'm not sure how long its been there. It didnt show up on my boost gauge so I'm guessing its been there since I got the car running again about a month ago. Its about a 1" slit in a silicone hose.

I placed a buncha orders the other day for the parts i need to finish up the loose ends. On the way I have another bend for the exhaust manifold, some metal for a new downpipe which I'll hafta build for the new manifold, some fittings to fix a coolant leak I have, and msd ignition system and neuspeed 16valve spark plug wires, some misc gaskets and head nuts, and some other boring stuff. I hafta fab some stuff for the ignition system out of aluminum so I walked around the school shop looking for scrap metal and found and old radio with a huge metal heat sink which I will use for the spark plug wire brackets.

Heres a pic of the brackets i hafta make. These are auditunerb5's on the other audi forums


I tried painting my m3 rear lip in the shower but the adhesion promoter and the primer had a reaction and I think the lip is destroyed so I need to get another one.

My downpipe is also hitting the trans stabilizer bar so I gotta fix that

I just signed up to show at h20 international so I got a lotta work to do!

Here some pics I took today at my favorite sand pit!





Heres a pic of some rubbing issues depending on how the car is parked sometime I have less of a finger gap with the wheel turned
