Wishlist :
-6sp tranny or 5 speed with much larger 1st and 5th or bigger final drive(any ideas?) topping out quickly at 145 and having power left sux, Lightweight flywheel, cams, H&R coilovers, Diesel Geek short shift, 2.1L bottom end with better internals, FMIC coming soon, was trying a custom air-to-water system using a Twin engine racing boat intercooler but mounting issues have canned that idea for a time.
-All the work done to this car was completed by my father and myself and I just would like to thank him for making this all possible and teaching me so much.
-Pics arent all up to date emblems are def on the back by now, new batch of pics soon to come!
-My Brothers 01 RS4 clone(well boosted a little more then a stock RS4) just got a dual core FMIC so a RS4 side mount intercooler is currently in the works, looking for a new set of rims, thinking of new rims possibly black with silver lip, def want some dish to them, any suggestions welcome
