Not sure if many of you guys know who I am, but I use to be around this board up till last summer. Parents ran into some financial issues and I made the choice to sell the car to help them out financially. Here | Pics Here
But my parents were finally able to save up enough cash to buy me car in turn for what I had done for them last summer.
Picking the car up in an hour! But here are the specs:
$4700
2001 Audi A4 1.8TQM w/ sport package + JHM Full Shift Kit (144,xxx)
All Maintenance records (second owner, purchased at 25,000 miles and currently owned by a Audi dealership sales person/his brother)
Valeo SMF Clutch Kit
New Tires
Brand New Set of Blizzak's with Steelies
Full Yakima Roof Rack
Since the time of seeing the car yesterday and deciding to purchase it. I've already purchased:
- Fully Loaded APR ECU
- FMIC (27x6x2.5)(locally on craigs) + eBay Map Sensor Bung (still need to grab some IC piping and route everything)
- Bosch 710n DV
- KW ST Coilovers
- Test Pipe w/ Spacer
- Quoted/Made Appointment for 2.5" Custom exhaust
But the car will stay like this for a long time, as I enjoy going fast, but I would rather have a reliable car for Colorado and enjoy another bike (eyeing a Ducati 748 )
I know, I know, "This Thread is Useless without Pics" so I'll update this with pics later.

Welcome back, man. So, what happened to your Frankenturbo?
I hate it when my car acts like a little bitch, treating me like the bitch
FS:Brand New K&N Air Filter RU-3700 (3" inlet, 5" base, 4" tall, 4 5/8" top), Brand New 3" Injen (Amsoil) Dry Filter Setup with Heat Shield, Brand New OEM 06A Oil Pump, Used Greddy Intercooler...throw me some offers
The frankenturbo stayed on the car when I sold it. However I did talk to Doug and have another one lined up for this car but I have priorities and sticking with the Apr ecu until I can save up 1500 when I'll switch to another frankenturbo setup for this car. That's where I will stop modifying atleast that's what I keep telling myself.

I think you'll be fine sticking with the FT if you have the Duc. I'm pretty happy with the power level of the FT (even with mine not fully sorted out yet) because I know if I want to go fast I can just hop on my Z1000.
Just the sneak peek of today, but got tracking numbers for the APR ECU and the KW ST coilovers >:)

Welcome Back. I remember your initial thread. I'm glad your family was able to return the favor and get you back into a B5. I'll be really impressed if your LCD works LOL
Fackkkk you were in VAN CITY! we should have chilled man! Would have been a crazzzzy night!
Was staying at the Sandman Signature Hotel with the water slide (exit 39) and it was amazing. Friends and I all spent $150-$170 for alcohol. We bought shots of patron, jameson, makers mark, kettle one, etc.

And anyone know how restrictive the exhaust is on the B5? Im thinking about just removing the first resonator but otherwise keeping the exhaust stock with some better looking tips. No need to go to a larger exhaust size from 2.25 with the K03s imho.

Can someone verify this....

The ones with the red accent on the T of 1.8t had the K03s AFIK or that could have just been for the sport package ones

technically, if I can recall my model numbers correctly, the ko3 is designated for the K03-003 while the k03-027 which came with the atw (2001) is the k03s but either way, they're tiny turbos.

I've got an early 2001 (AWM) and it has the K03-029 (aka K03 "s"). My brother's 2000 (ATW) also has the K03-029. I'm nearly positive both are original equipment. I do believe that every DBW 1.8T A4 I've seen has had the 029 turbo.
