    Failed exhaust manifold gasket b5 a4

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I'm looking for someone or a place to replace my exhaust manifold gasket. I have the f21l frankenturbo for my 99 Audi A4 b5. I had it installed by a member on here who claimed he was an Audi master tech back in April.

    I did recently get a stage 3 tune and have been driving more spirited. And have yet to put a fmic on yet. Which may have been a factor into it blowing out.

    Anyone have recommendations around here for a fair price to do this? What should a standard quote be for this job? I realize I have to take the turbo and downpipe off. I have no time do this, and most places are only during the week. But I need it done in a day!

    Any help appreciated! Thanks!

    Damn dude. That sucks to hear.

    You going to do the work yourself or are you looking to have a shop do it?

    If you want to tackle it yourself I can lend a hand if you would like. I don't know how frankified your turbo install is but from the brief research I did installation doesn't seem bad.

    I've had good luck with DJM in the past, they are open by appointment on Saturdays but last time I checked they were booked for a while.

    East Vancouver Automotive did my exhaust a few weekends ago when I was in a pinch. They are open all day Saturday and I would happily take my car back there again.
