    Integrated Intercooler Ducting - Replaceable???

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    When I was screwing back on the lower engine cover I inadvertenly put 2 small holes in the integrated ducting (pic below courtesy of A4mods.com) that goes to the intercooler. The wholes are about 1/8"-1/16" in diameter. How I initially found out was when I was driving I would hear this hiss as I accelerated and the pressure built up . If this is integrated into the chassis I may try jbweld on the 2 holes, any thoughts.

    i bet you could spot weld those holes to seal them. Or just get a FMIC and not worry about it.

    Do you not think JB Weld will work, or try to find someone to spot weld it. The FMIC will come later, just not today :)
