Did you park towards the building? You could of come in and said hi. Also I have another one in the truck just waiting for that cause I will never have a front plate.

The girl I worked with was driving and I was with a few work people so i couldnt stop in... do you normally work there or at Polaris?

[IVRINGS]

I kinda move all over as of right now, but I did run both stores at one time. Just everything has been crazy with firing dumb people. So I took the chance to move around and I'm on top above everyone in numbers. So when you are ready like you said I can save you some good money.

[IVRINGS]

Also does anyone know this is? I'm thinking he works at Lowe's. I saw him driving on Polaris Parkway the other day behind me off the interstate, but never wanted to play or anything while he was going to work I'm guessing now. So thought some of you B5 guys can speak up. I'm not a huge fan of the wheels, but just wanted to see if anyone knows the guy.

[SilverBullets]

im not sure about much on that... the lights and spoiler... idk... maybe it looks better in person

[IVRINGS]

Yeah sorry for the crapy pics, but you kinda get the idea of the car.

[jonathanh916]

Thought I'd join the party. I'm in columbus as well so if you're meeting up sometime I'll drop by. Hopefully adding piggie pipes this weekend.

you hear alot more turbo spool and low tones in your exhaust. I think my turbos boosted quicker also. let me know if you have any questions about the install. its just alot of really really tight spaces.

[FrancoTheTanko]

there's probably a little more room in the A6, but still seams tough to do

[jriddle11]

haha its in my dad's garage now

Byers found another GREAT Porsche! Check out this GT3RS! I saw it yesterday when I stopped to get my service done. I wanted to take more pics but my daughter was in the car.





You can even get shoes to match! http://www.carzi.com/2009/01/04/nike...-gt3-rs-shoes/

[SilverBullets]

wow thats cool! I love the RS... very very cool car

[IVRINGS]

I hate the color of them... The yellow brakes behind the Orange wheels is just gross, but the power from them sure make up for a lot of that.

I guess Porsche brakes only come in 2 colors, red or yellow. Red being their standard brakes and yellow being their performance brakes.

[jriddle11]

I wasn't feeling the color either, but I would love to drive it.

[jriddle11]

Guys if you get a chance to go Byers over the weekend. They picked up a BAD ASS B7!

http://www.audizine.com/forum/showth...36#post4007436

Did someone here by this B7? I was at Byers the other day and I noticed it leaving with temp tags.

Well I found out that we should be getting the house this month! Closing is going to be on the 27th of this month. I'm going to have to do a few things in the garages before we get moved in on the floor is someone wants to help. The main 2 car garage has some cracks in the floor that I want to fill and then coat the floor that floor stuff from Lowe's. I've done small areas that where prepped before I got there, but if anyone knows more about this want to help? lol

[OldYella]

Ive never used the special floor stuff but I have painted a garage floor. Free labor if you need me.

[IVRINGS]

Well the day I do it just to give you an idea there is a 2 car attached garage that is oversized and then a 900sqft garage back behind the house... ;) So we will be busy.

[OldYella]

LOL that s almost exactly where my Ex lives...lol LMK if you need help

[coowhip]

I'm game if I'm not working. Will there be adult beverages? Could be a good way for all of us to get to know each other too instead of the forums. Even if you just stop by for a min. If anyone has facebook, hit me up.

Sup guys, I've been AWOL from the forums for a bit. Been trying to get caught up on things. Plus some douche bags downtown thought it would be funny to key the crap out of my A4 to the tune of $4000 in damage. Dudes must've spent 20 min. keying my car up. Good thing I only had a deductible of $250, unfortunately, I didn't have rental on my policy, which I found odd. So I had to drive a Mercury Sable for 2 weeks.

I'm surprised I don't see you guys more often on Polaris/270. I work at Nationwide's data center at the North Pointe Conference Center and live in Gahanna, so I'm always back and forth on that 270/71 stretch.

Dude thats terrible...that's worse than when my car was less than a month old and someone sat on the hood and dented the living hell out of it....

I don't work for NW, but I am at out Nationwide Retirement working on their IT Sox Audit/SAS 70... im sure our paths will cross at some point

[IVRINGS]

That sucks to hear about the car being keyed. As for me you would see me more around the Polaris area, but my work hours are 10-8, kinda off from everyone else. I did just see a Silver A4 with what looked to like the Vortex kit on it around 5:15 on Polaris Parkway.

Silver - Don't forget about picking out your new beds! At least one for you.

haha we do need a bed... i was laying in bed with my GF and our dog, and she decided to get the 2nd pup in bed since he is getting older now... after about 10 minutes i go 'holy shit this isn't gonna work'... she goes, looks like we need a king size...

looks like ill be seeing you in a few weeks haha

[SilverBullets]

oh and I do need one of those Tempur-pedic pillows... My GF stole mine and it is the only thing that has helped her with back pain... now i can't sleep, but im at least not in pain so she gets to use it

[IVRINGS]

What one did you want? I have the Queen size Comfort Tempur, and I can get the standard Symphony Pillow.

[IVRINGS]

Well guys I think I found yet another person to post up here. His name is Andy and has a Black B7 A4 S-Line. On a side note the person arcoss the street is Andy too with a Silver B5 S4. So I hope we can get everyone out and around this year. So don't be scared to talk to other people in Audi's ;)

[BOPOH]

how'd the piggies turn out?

It went well. Took sat and Sun about 14 hours in all including trips to the store for breaker bar and other random items. It was a difficult job, but really more time consuming and a pain than hard to accomplish.

I can tell a significant improvement in speed. mainly in Turbo's spooling faster and it's much quicker off the line than before....at least it seems that way.

Buy the 17mm swivel ratchet wrench if doing DP's. There's no way we could have finished this project with out it. $15 from Lowes and worth every penny. I'd still be trying to get the top driver side bolt off if I didn't have this tool.



Also - if you plan on doing this don't waste your time or money buying the crappy clamps from autozone to replace the sleeves that hold the main cat to the exhaust pipe. you can buy the replacement sleeves online for $30 for both - sure more than $10 but well worth the money.
