Ha ha I'm sure i will be, for now i'm just reading. Just stripped everything down as far as i can and replaced all gaskets and seals and cleaned the engine bay up.
I dont have the part number but if you call audi they can sort you out. There is defo a difference, i rarely get any understeer, the back of the car rotates better through corners making the steering feel more direct. when pushed hard i can get the back to slide out
Hi Guys,
I've just bought a set of Audi RS5 ARB's now i'm probably not going to fit the front well not straight away. Just going to fit the rear for now. The rear is 22.5mm and i'm struggling to find bushes to fit, ideally poly but i really dont care right now just want it fitted.
If anyone...
A turbo can fail for all sorts or reasons. A dirty or after market intake can let grit through that damages blades. seals can become worn allowing oil to pass through etc etc. My car hadn't been driven hard for awhile i reckon when i bought it. The car seem to struggle top end, a couple of...
Hi Sean, i think you'll find something for 8k just be patient. These cars where sales rep cars i reckon so mileage is an issue, i was pretty much the in the same boat as you price range and spec. I paid 6.2k for mine with 93k on. No rust but alot of the car has been repainted looking at it...
Hi Karl, massive thanks again, fuel pump install went smoothly which is nice. Found I can get to the MAP sensor easy by removing with wheel and going in that way, was easier than removing the head light. Car is in at Ricks in the morning, nervous but looking forward to it.
Thanks again!
Thanks for all the help,
Car is booked in for the 11th September with Rick so will give me chance to do a few bits and a service. My goal it 370-380 750nm if I hit those numbers I’m hoping I’m happy but obviously comes down to the way she feels, at them moment she’s meant to 300bhp and she’s ok...
Ok will do that, is there a specific way to do that on the Audi?
Ok I’ll do it at Ricks, the MAP sensor looks a little awkward to get to.
I’ve got the larger intake pipe from Darkside so should be good to go
Karl, thank you, I owe you a beer! Think we’re finally at a point where I understand. Relay should be here tomorrow. Order a new fuel filter to as figured I may as well swap it out while I’m down there. From google it says with the CAPA engine, I shouldn’t need to do anything to prime the pump...
Hi Karl, I’m really sorry if I’m spoiling what is a great thread. But.......
So the fuse tap plugs into fuse 3 of st2, so is this instead of ‘red fuel pump wire’ (86)?
Then another fused connection to live, like the positive under the bonnet? Or central locking etc. Or have I got this wrong...
Hi Karl thanks for the information if I can’t figure it from that i’ll get someone to do it for me.
This is what the turbo said:
Upgraded to GT2267/71 updated 360deg large pad thrust bearing, GTX Billet extended tip compressor wheel. Someone claimed to make 404 using this turbo and to be...
Hi Karl,
Great thread, its helped me lot, i've pretty much copied your build to be honest. I've used Rick @ unicorn a few times we all take our cars to him.
I'm really struggling getting my head round the extra fuel pump, i've searched the internet and found information but not enough where i...
We normally go up to Amsterdam then to the ring. Down the Autoban then play over the Alps doing as many passes as possible. Stelvio etc. So far we've done 3 and we always have some issues which makes it more fun. Last year we did it is Mini cooper s r53's we got 4 cars up 240-250bhp they were so...
