MIGGZ's A3 1.8t - The all rounder build thread

I'm sure you are... so much more control of what's going on in your newly rebuilt motor... you must be stoked.
 
i am hey, just need time to fit it, thats a luxury in my life!
and it will help not spiking at next dubrun
 
Lols isn't it for most of us. I just wipped out my headlights for a clean up and polish all the factory clear went all yellow .. and found a bodge bumper fitment on the front bumper.. A little peaved about that but hey it can't all be perfect... its getting there though... next I want to whip off intake and cam cover and polish them.
 
And iv organised the K04 egt probe now so that's epic.

ill be doing a full fitting guide soon on it im just waiting to redyno, was suppose to be done today but had some family issues that needed me

overall impressing is awesome, car spools quicker, holds longer, bottom end feels more torquey and sound is something different
