    Audi RS6 V10 5.0L Oil spillage and white smoke startup?

    No worries, if the leak is from the heads at the back there's a possibility it's the oil cooler seal or else the oil filter housing, or both. Not as expensive as pressure pumps. These cars should map up to around 650/700 hp depending on fuel and exhaust. 4.6 is roughly stock so 4.3 doesn't...

    Rattle on start up.

    Does the exhaust have a butterfly valve? In my B7 RS4 once the exhaust got old the valves started getting rattly and would sound loose on start up and rattle, this would quickly disappear.

    Audi RS6 V10 5.0L Oil spillage and white smoke startup?

    Quite probably the oil pump seal, unfortunately its an enormous job to replace, engine out or can be done with engine in for not much of a saving over out. The engines generate massive heat and thus most of the rubber seals harden in not very much time, I recently had my oil seal replaced at...

    Igntion Timing on a BUH engine

    Most of the big power cars in the UK are running upgrades, injectors, intercoolers, gearbox and hybrid tte850+ turbos GT3071R if I'm correct are good for what about 500bhp each? Therefore 1000bhp total, factor in drivetrain losses and 680whp is impressive for just a turbo swap, maybe look into...

    S3 Bi-xenon lights annoy other drivers...

    Its possibly just the drivers over here, any sniff of a brighter than standard light and people freak out. Most bi xenon cars I've driven at night cause other drivers to give a flash, only to get flashed back! I'd just ignore it to be fair

    Anarapovic exhaust

    They're pricey but my god do they sound good! I have a set of their slip ons for my Ducati and its obnoxiously loud yet sounds class! I thought they only catered more towards super cars and sports cars though

    Calling all hybrid turbo owners

    In theory thats all well and good, but once you get too greedy it will bite you in the *** Once you get to a certain figure you're starting to affect the other components of the car, if Ash wants a bit more power whilst not wanting to pay serious cash then a conservative hybrid is a good choice...

    Calling all hybrid turbo owners

    Ash, under serious load a stock turbo with a strenuous map will smoke pretty bad If you get the turbo hybrided right with a decent map to suit realistically you wouldn't need any other add ons, if you go for a conservative power gain you'll notice a bit of smoke when pushing hard but nothing...

    A3 HID kits

    There are NO OEM HIDs for a reflector housing as its illegal, in order for HIDs to be OEM they need to be in a Projector housing with washer jets HID kit suppliers are supplying an illegal product if its use is in a Halogen reflector housing, Xenons are factory OEM HIDs

    A3 HID kits

    I said non projector housing, and there may be more lumens but id argue that half are being scattered upwards to the sky, hence blinding oncoming traffic. my bulbs are as bright as any HID cars I've passed and they're Halogen They may be better for "YOU" but thats an opinion of an obnoxious...

    A3 HID kits

    i don't get HIDs all they do is annoy other road users by being unsafe There are bulbs which are brighter than HIDs in a non projector housing that don't spray the light pattern in a full 360 degree way The fact they aren't legal is only a minor aspect, compared to the mindset of the people...

    @Scott you will need a bonnet from an 06-08 car, I've just this week found a bonnet on ebay, be careful dealing with breaker yards as I had a few who tried very hard to say that a bonnet off an 04-05 car would fit, but there are 3 different bonnets. The crash bar on your car will need modified...
