Just bought a Audi TT

[bvnguyen516]

Hey guys,

After a long search and a lot of thought after looking at 4 B5 S4's, 2 B6 A4's, and 9 Audi TT's I have finally found the TT I am buying. I just finished the buyers inspection and worked out a price that the seller was asking and the results that came from the buyers inspection.

Details:

Said 14,500 firm.
Offered (and accepted) my 13,000 offer.

Needs about 1,500 of work but its replacing new brakes and brake components and a head
gasket valve leak and one CV boot that needs replacing.

2001 Audi TT 225 Quattro.

ALMOST PERFECT (one light 1" scratch on drivers door) Brilliant Black paint with a 9 out of 10 black leather interior.

75,000 miles with all reciepts of maintenance. just did the full timing belt service. and put on brand new tires (like 99% tread left).

no dead pixels on the dash monitor and everything else works great

for some reason it has the 3.2 TT rear valence, bumpers and rims.

yep, 3zero3 is where I go as well, Trevor helped me do all the work on my B6, and now with my TT as well. I just did a StgIII clutch and lightweight flywheel with him last week, as well as the revo chip. I did coilovers, exhaust, intake, and a lot of maintenance work with my a4 there as well. great shop

Congrats, looks great.

[bvnguyen516]

wow thats a nice a3 vivid

[bvnguyen516]

i was thinking about getting a forge splitter (dv/bov) because i want the performance but also that sound. i would prefer more of a "whoosh" noise vs the high pitched shot but i dont believe forge makes anything else that is noisy

should check out the evoms set up(v-flow intake and DV) will give you the sound you are looking for. its the set up im running.

you can kind of hear it in this video i made awhile back.

[bvnguyen516]

ive been told to go forge for the dv/bov because of reliability.


thanks for the recommendation with the vid though

[Euroluv]

i have had it on my car for over 15k+ miles with nothing gone wrong, plus they use it on a lot of there performance porsche making over 600+ hp. so its more than reliable..haha!
