Default thanks, this is a fairly current pic of the car....

Mod list is pretty long, but still car is far from done and will never be completed.

on that note, anyone want a fairly modded a4 ?!?!?!

Default Vogtland Springs, A4 front, S4 rears, on koni adjustable shocks set to 65/85% firm rebound f/r

Turbo is a stock K03 running AMS Software for the fmic, with a 4.5bar FPR.

Did you find the FPR made a difference...

Default Hard to say, Marc was doing the tuning when he determined that fuel delivery was too low up top...

so we tried the FPR. I need a wideband O2 sensor to tell you exactly how the car is doing right now hehe

Default what about downpipe, I hear GHL is ok, I may also have to change the fuel filter, but not too sure

if I have to... I am pretty happy with the car though, Fr rotors need changing again : ), big brake upgrade: )... and may also get the K04 or K04/T28 hybrid depending on the added problems with it, depending on fueling etc... K04 seems to run pretty good though with factory injectors...
