Cool... good job. Any way to swap in a 4.2 into a '96 A6Q fairly easily?

And this is a problem because...

Nice work. What are your ultimate plans for the car? Is rallying still in the future? How much weight is the V8 vs. the 1.8T?

BTW, and sorry for the jack, but has anyone heard anything further on Siena's project?

Yep. It's completed, and on the road. Project is somewhere on here too.

wow on the rarity that you post on here, you always post up something that's fabbed up with great skill. were you born and then you dad put a welder next to your pillow and then he said "my son is going to grow up and fab mad ****" lol.

i think you should do a SC setup replacing the intake mani and get a vented hood. not a subi style hood but like a vorstein style hood. nothing too flashy lol. another option would be to fab a custom wheel well and try to fit a sidemount SC and run an IC with meth. after all that, go widebody!!!!!!
