I love the gauge in the vent looks good

[Gaberossi]

thanks, I love it. a couple things are about to change on the inside of the car and some new fully adjustable coil overs are on their way. Also got the 034 snub mount and new timing belt kit coming in tomorrow.

[NeedingAnAudi]

Time to clean up that radio surround?? lol

[Gaberossi]

yes very badly!! haha

[NeedingAnAudi]

YES!! After you do that your car will be complete! lmao














Ok not really but it is one of my favorite mods so far since it's very subtle.

[Gaberossi]

HAH! It will never be complete >=)...im already thinking e85 and a bigger exhaust housing for the turbo on top of everything else but IDK right now lol

[M-Hood]

You will need very big injectors if you want to run E85, around 1150-1200cc. What a/r housing you running now?

[Gaberossi]

Yeah I was thinking 1200cc injectors and a .82 housing would be ideal to push 550hp. Right now I am running the .63 housing.

[M-Hood]

Yeah the .82 will give you more top end while spooling up a few hundred rpms later then the .63.

You would like the single tip 1150cc EV12 injectors I will be running very soon.

[Gaberossi]

Alright thanks mike. How much power can I get out of those injectors?

[M-Hood]

Alright thanks mike. How much power can I get out of those injectors?

Those should be plenty for any power you want to get out of your turbo setup. I will be running them on my EFR and my goal is 700-750whp on 117 octane.

[Gaberossi]

right on, can't wait to see those numbers

[ThatA4T]

pic of the gauge in the day?

[Gaberossi]

that picture I have up at the top of this page was taken during the day or do you want a daytime *off* picture.. let me know what u need a pic of

[Gaberossi]

Figured I should give you guys an update on what is going on with my b5...Replacing timing belt tomorrow, new tires on the way, new coilovers getting purchased(been thinking about bags though) Catch can setup getting peiced together, new muffler coming in, interior peices on the way for the Clay to Black interior swap. I just replaced the ECU and MAF circuit(wires, harness and MAF)bc it got shorted out somehow during one of these bad rainstorms that came through. As far as the building of the head goes, I'm coming up with funds for that and hopefully i should have the ferrea valve train in the head in the next few months(I would do this now since I'm doing the T-belt but I dont have the funds ATM.) Once the head gets done a new high boost tune will go on the ECU and we're looking to hit 450hp on pump gas.

Thanks for following my thread guys!

Pictures of the gauge in the vent when its OFF during the day?

eg nice clear visible photos.

Love the car as well.

[SleeperAvant]

Nice build, looking forward to the 450whp!

[b518]

Damn read this thing all the way through definitely inspiration. Can't wait to get my 450+awhp =)

[Gaberossi]

[jaychen]

Looking great, what headlights are you running?

[Gaberossi]

Depo E-code one peice black housing headlights

[Gaberossi]

Nice build, looking forward to the 450whp!

Thanks dude me too hah!

[LightSwitch]

looking good man, im still waiting on my pag kit! I've always liked the look's of the kdw2's.

[Gaberossi]

got the new southbend stage 4 clutch in...




getting a thermal muffler in the very near future, finally getting rid of that magnaflow that I destroyed


Usp Motorsports

[Gaberossi]

catch can is FINALLY in...when I put the can on and drove for a few days my power seemed increase ever so slightly, im going to throw it on the dyno some time next week to see if there is an actual gain. since I had no way to vent crankcase pressure the pistons were fighting to return to BDC in the cylinder, and now since it is vented the pistons fall freely, freeing up that resistance in the motor...raced a brand new Audi S4 supercharged with full bolt-ons and a tune and gave him a run for his money and an older porsche gt3 wanted to play but he left early then let off as I was walking past...The car runs amazing right now, I went to Fixx Fest with the guys at Usp and had no issues. Usp broke a world record with their 6057 MK4 GLI that ran a 10.89@134mph. I'll post some updated videos of my car within the week. Thanks for stopping by

[bw86]

How's that 4 puck clutch treating you? My friend has a 4 puck fx400 and I hate driving that thing lol.

[Gaberossi]

This clutch is not bad at all for a 4 puck, it was a little rough until I broke it in..It is a very street-able setup I'm having no issues with the clutch at all.

[s3apra4]

Nice!! Love me some Volcano!
Pics of the catch can???

[Gaberossi]

I'll go take some now ;)

Moved to the Projects & Builds section.

[Gaberossi]

well long story short I got into an accident that ripped off my front bumper. There is minimal damage but I will need to replace the front bumper(with an s4 bumper), and radiator support since it is cracked (it looks like they are made of some kind of fiberglass) also the steel frame rail is slightly bent where the passenger side bumper shock is located. The bumper shock caught the wheel of the other car involved in the accident, because I had no rebar the bumper collapsed and the shock punched right through. I'm glad no body got injured and the damage is not too bad, it could have been much much worse. Anyways, heres a few pics...

[Aliel]

got some fresh tires..

What tires are these and what size? I really like the way they fit and look.

[M-Hood]

Tread looks like BFG GForce T/A KDW 2's.

[SleeperAvant]

Car looks great.

I only wish we had them in Europe. This model is nowhere to be found.

Have you checked to see if Tire Rack will ship to Europe?

[Aliel]

They don't ship but even if they ship it would be too expensive for something that big and heavy.

[M-Hood]

Yeah it wouldn't be cheap to ship 4 tires, unless you know someone that gets shipments from here by cargo container. You could always talk to a shipping company near you that deals with shipping things from here in a container.

Does anyone sell BFG tires in your country? Because you could always ask them about that model tire.
