[bora_1_8t]

thought I would share this Santa came a little early for me

[bora_1_8t]

well it finally happened one of my coil packs crapped out luckily after checking with Audi my car was under the recall so I was able to have them change all the coils also what was great is Audi covered the towing to the dealership so after a whole weekend with out my car(due to them being booked on service) I get my car back today so ya...another good thing about this is I found out which coil pack went dead because I tried to switch them out with a spare I had and the second coilpack broke in half inside the motor so that was bad so I just but everything back together and said ill have them deal with this so I kinda dodged a bullet there...so now that this is done thursday Im off to Santa Fe to get my chip yippie I cant wait

[bryzf1]

^Revo I assume?

[bora_1_8t]

of course...well I hope I can I just got off the phone with Audi and they said the car wont start and its not the coils that are causing it so now I have to wait

[bryzf1]

That sucks... hopefully it's not expensive! :-0

[bora_1_8t]

ok so I was thinking of trying to get a few of us together and head op to like red river for a weekend and rent a cabin for 3 days and hit the slopes just seeing who might be down for that

[JWatson]

Hey, I am new to the Albuquerque area with my B5 S4. Would love to catch up with some other Audi enthusiasts.

[bora_1_8t]

welcome nice S4 well we normally get together every friday at 7 up at ABQ uptown and its a mix of VW's and Audi's no one will be going out i think for the rest of the year but we also get together other times so just keep an eye on this tread we will post meets

[JWatson]

Is there any place in town that would have a VAG-COM cable, or GIAC flashloader? I need to switch my program. Thanks

[bora_1_8t]

The only place in town who does GIAC is speed lab

[bryzf1]

Yeah they may have a flashloader sitting around that they could change your program for you... Don't be too surprised if they charge you. I would hope they wouldn't for something as simple as that. What GIAC programs do you have on your ECU? Also what mods do you have done?

[JWatson]

They switched it for me at no charge. Its a GIAC XR with the stock, pump, race fuel, valet, and ignition kill features. The car is now stage 2+, I did piggie pipes in my garage about a month ago, and a 3" Magnaflow exhaust just before that (I'm fairly good with a welder). And after New Years I'll be changing the timing belt . I'm in high school, so I have plenty of time to tinker around with this stuff and its great fun.

[bryzf1]

^Very cool! Now all you need are some coilovers and you'll be set

[JWatson]

I would love to lower it, but I would love even more to go stage 3. So I'm going to keep those funds for that.

[bryzf1]

I'm not sure if you are aware of it yet, but JHM is selling k04 replica turbos right now in a group buy for $1400 shipped which seems like a great deal and a cheap way to get to stage 3

Saw your awesome ride at wells fargo the other day! You parked next to my gf's 2010 Orange Camaro

[bora_1_8t]

Merry Christmas everyone be safe

[JWatson]

Hey, I saw the GB, but thats a little out of the quetion at the moment. And as far as piggie pipes go, it is def worth doing it, and I would be up for helping anyone. There doesnt seem to be anything for high schoolers to do around here, so I've just been working on the Audi, and I'm having a lot of fun with it.

[bryzf1]

The piggies make quite a bit a difference and free up quite a bit of hp and allow those turbo's to spool a little quicker... it's def a great inexpensive mod to do w/ great gains

[bora_1_8t]

What are piggie pipes

[bryzf1]

What are piggie pipes

Gutted stock downpipes

[bora_1_8t]

so is that just a S4 thing or does it also work on a 1.8t
