Zippy, it was just loose. The two pipes that go down to the charge air coolers that are attached to the TBB were just a little loose from it. I can defiantly feel some power back. I would like to get the Samco TBB though and especially the 710N DV too.
Did you just reprogram the trans with a VAG-COM?

Yeah I don't know much about internal parts so I guess when I take my car in I'll just have them check to see if everything is tight?

Also my car is making that high pitched whistling dentist drill like sound that bothers me, and I also have limited throttle response

Thanks

Yes I did use a VAG-COM to reprogram the tranny to 00032.
Replacing the TBB with a Samco and the DVs with the upgraded 710Ns was almost a cinch... I drop one of the bolts that holds the sensor on top of the TBB. It fell down behind the pulley and after miserably failing at getting it out I had to ask my girlfriend to get it for me with her slimmer arm and hand...[] Good girl!
While I was there I also decided to check out the pollen filter... Cough cough!!!![:'(] I now have a replacement on order. Then I also decided to replace the air filter since I was also going to replace the parks plugs (in preparation for the APR chip).
Now you guys know what I do on my weekends when I am not riding the Beemer... [8D]
Oh yeah, next project will be the piggies. Quite a chalenge, huh!
