Thanks Wayne;) Makes sense when you think about it :p

To be fair, when the figures were mentioned we had been talking about the Stage 2+ remap which they say is pretty much the most aggressive remap that folk go for.

Cheers Wayne, I'll check em out:blink1: Yes, what is a 3 / 5 angle valve job:confused: You talk about a fast road cams and normally i would totaly agree with you, I had the same thought about my engine but apparently, the cams i have in this are considered "agressive" anyway and by upgrading...

"Official Speed Camera Tester" "The accelerators on the right" "Park it up and catch a bus instead" :amuse:

I agree:bigsmile: A new engine when given plenty of enthusiasm from new will actually bed it in better with better compression readings. Obviously, if the guidebook says change the oil 3 times then change it, If it say's don't get it over a certain amount of revs then stick to it but in general...

Have been thinking of Porting and polishing my engine and rematching the gaskets for sometime now. This is something I cannot do myself so I'm having to upend the change jar and pay someone to do it for me. Before I do this, I want to hear what other folk have to say about it. I have an Audi...

From experience and from good advise also, A performance panel filter, for the cost, will give you as good if not better intake of air as over an induction kit. Unless it's a properly done job, which could cost hard earned pennies and time. As Waynne rightly points out, it's alot of work...

That's great advice on one way to smoothen the box :lol::lol::lol: I think the vinyl would really finish it off as sanding plastic, can only go so far.:sad2: Good point on the tints. I think there is only a 5% if anything on these. A good tint shop should be able to advise. I did tints years...

Using Blue Peter sticky back plastic, is a good idea. might be easier than trying to sand it all back:bigsmile: I have a broken rocker cover breather hose that i have gaffered taped up so that might be the cause of the loss of power. It is already on order from VAGparts so i will see if that's...

Sorry guy's, I nearly forgot about this post. Here's some pics of my air box mod. Just in case you can't find it :D Nice Clean MAF!!!! Ok, now we're getting to it! 5 Minutes later! Back in situ. Anyone know what the ? is for??? As you can see, it really needs a good smoothening...

A couple of places might be audi specific breakers like allaudi and fourrings/circles cant remember which now :D Last time I looked the APR was £4500 from Audi :amazed:. Alternatively, look out for a 99/00/01 facelift B5 2.8 for silly money and use it as a donor. Most, not all, of the 2.8's came...

:lol::lol: Did you find his post?? Go for an APR 30v, iirc correctly they were the best of 2.8 lumps (Not just being biased either :cheesy:) convincing the wife however, is something that no man can help you with :bigsmile::bigsmile: Going back a few posts here, afaik, a supercharger should...

I can't yet link you, though a guy on the forum in my previous post has superchrarged his 2.8 Coupe. He did however, swap the 12v for the 30v at the same time. Major Project but doable.

Thanks folks. I have met and spoken to Martyn from VAGparts and he says the RS6 lights seem popular atm with audi drivers. £150 odd a set still tho. Even though i have drilled my airbox, i may well go down the smoothening route too. If I take it further with the tuning, I'll be looking at more...

Hence why i would want the modern engines etc. Though having problems with cars, just adds character:p. As for the Princess, Nice car in it's day but no fanks :D
