Good stuff. You are going to be overwelmed when all the parts are back and the assembly starts. I can't wait to see it at H20!

**goody6691** · 08-24-2009 04:23 PM

im so fing stressed now just thinking about it, plus i still have to build an intake and work all the bugs out and pass emisions before h2o......................i cant wait to finally see yours at h2o

**A4Rob** · 08-24-2009 09:46 PM

My Chris Tapp Intake for the reference:

4" 90*, aluminum coupler for the diverter valve, 4" straight, steel screen, MAF, 4" to 3" reducer, filter.

My TIP is planned as follows (being fabbed up this week):
My air filter is underneath the passenger frame rail. Connected to a 3inch MAF housing connected to a custom aluminum pipe that tapers out to 4inches in diameter. That pipe continues to a 4" aluminum 90 to straight (now vertical) to a 4inch silicon 90 into the turbo. So, my whole TIP is a custom aluminum jobber.

Well, that is the plan that Jake and I came up with. We'll see how the final product comes out once we start fitting things together.

My turbo outlet (ie: hot side piping) goes out above the frame rail and underneath the headlight. 2.5inch piping.

Its on a B6 but the principles are similar. That is... If you don't have your A/C compressor on the passenger side of the motor (mine is driver side).

**goody6691** · 08-25-2009 07:25 PM

i want my filter up high. ocean city tends to flood. and i drive my car all summer, not trying to grenade the new motor.

I thought about that too and was thinking of hand pounding a 4inch piece of aluminum into an oval to fit it over the headlight like the stock TIP is. However, that would be very restrictive so I opted for the under the frame-rail route.

Ocean City floods so you are driving in water up to your hubs? At that depth I wouldn't leave home or take my car out. Esp one looking like yours with the work you have put into it.

You need the TIP fully submerged to hydro-lock your motor.

**goody6691** · 08-25-2009 09:50 PM

im not taking any chances, ive seen water just show up in the streets at the beach. plus flash floods happen[kinda like waterfest a few years ago]

**Jake39454** · 08-25-2009 09:53 PM

Safe to say this isn't Dave's daily haha. I think he will be fine with that intake, my personal daily 1.8T has its filter about 3" off the ground, and has been fine that way for about 60k miles now

**goody6691** · 08-25-2009 10:10 PM

i do like to drive it as much as possible. plus now without the body kit i could drive it in the snow. of course the carbon lip would be a snowplow

**DAROWDYAUDI** · 08-26-2009 12:00 PM

seriously Dave...

quit acting like a such a little bitch, running your mouth off about what you bought and are getting done.

post some pics or get back to work.

Care to elaborate rather than just sit there and "agree" with Don?

**goody6691** · 08-26-2009 01:57 PM

pics tonight. interior is 90% done. paint looks pretty damn good. i have to have a few little things fixed later. they did a great job fitting the skirts. and the trunk looks awesome

**goody6691** · 08-26-2009 08:17 PM

you wanted pics, here you go

i am super pleased with the way the powdercoating came out. i think i may be the first to have a diamond stiched headliner, yellow stiched at that. does any one know how many facelift euro trunks are in the us? the body work came out great., there a few spots i have to have fixed but i will wait untill after h2o. i just got the dei turbo blanket. the motor should be here by this sunday or wednesday. its coming to a finish.

**kbS42001** · 08-26-2009 08:28 PM

....your trunk is making me wanna go out to the garage and pound the dent outta my "euro" trunk and rattle can it black....

looks great man, wow!...Nessa loves the stitching too

**20A4Audi1.8t01** · 08-26-2009 08:37 PM

comin together real nice!

**SykoraA4** · 08-26-2009 09:05 PM

eh eh?
ha sorry, the car looks great man. cant wait to see it at H20

**goody6691** · 08-26-2009 09:12 PM

ooooooo................whats that sticker?

**SykoraA4** · 08-26-2009 09:24 PM

http://www.audizine.com/forum/showthread.php?t=306549
about halfway down is where the stickers start.

sorry for the blatant whoring

**A4Rob** · 08-26-2009 10:53 PM

Good work. Now get that motor in.

Headliner and body looks great!

**Euro-Tuner** · 08-27-2009 05:34 AM

wow, everything looks great, are you going to be in audi wild at H2Oi? I love that turbo blanket, wish I wasn't broke!!!

keep the great work coming Dave

...oh and a couple of su should run at H2O for funsees (I'm not much for street racing, but if its a safe spot with no one out at night, lets see who can build the best)

**goody6691** · 08-27-2009 05:44 AM

audi wild yes. my motor prob wont be fully broken in by then but we will see. prob not a good idea to do "fun runs" at ocean city, the cops are rough

**goody6691** · 08-27-2009 11:13 AM

ok so i will get second place at the show, but at least i can dip into your cooler. dont worry i roll with 2 ez ups, 5 chairs, and a cooler of my own. god i cant wait to have a week off for the beach. you are doing dagball right?

**Euro-Tuner** · 08-27-2009 03:18 PM

I'll add to the cooler, but who says your getting second, better watch your back! sounds like we'll have our own little group there.
