MonSoonHell

Thought I would add a different look to MonSoonHell with my CCW rims with the ACCUAir system..

Please see this thread. My poor planning may be your gain.

Ok...the additional mods mentioned above have been installed. The mods were originally, SPC Performance Adjustable Front Control Arms (currently up for sale - see above post) with 034Motorsports Speed Density Engine Mounts. Since the SPC arms were not going to work with the AccuAir system, I contacted 034Motorsports (Chris), found out their Density Line Adjustable Upper Control Arm, Camber Correcting kit, would work with AccuAir sensors, so I immediately ordered the kit. Also, when inspecting the lower control arms of MonSoonHell, I decided to replace those as well.

I unfortunately, was not at the shop when the upper (034Motorsports) and lower control arms arrived for the install. I did take photos after the install.









Lower Control Arms:





Sorry for the crappy cell phone pics. Unfortunately, I do not have any pictures of the 034Motorsports engine mounts installed.

I allowed MonSoonHell to play with his friends at Real Auto Dynamic the other day. They played nicey nice in the corner...

I upgraded/replaced the four corners with Airlift's Performance Series for the B8, which is the following kit:





I was not at Real Auto Dynamics when they installed it, but took pictures afterwards:











Definitely dirty underneath, but it was raining when I pulled her into the shop.

Verdict: The ride is slightly firmer than the ACCUAir system. Setting is pretty much in the middle.

I have other modifications coming up.

Other Modifications arrived. Installed the CR-15 bar, oil dipstick from EuropaParts and detailing of MonSoonHell involving Color Correction and Opti-Coating...




Review of CR-15 bar; I did not believe I would actually feel a difference after the install. The amount of modifications on MonSoonHell is pretty extensive, especially with the suspension. Buttt... there is a difference in the steering. All I can say is the steering is more precise.

When the weather gets better, i will of course take additional pictures of the detail. MonSoonHell looks brand new.

For those that have the AirLift Performance Series on their B8, you may want to look at this thread...

Happy 2017 everyone. It has been a while and a lot has happened with MonSoonHell on a positive note. She underwent surgery May 4 thru May 8. During my last oil change, it was observed that I had 3 different locations of an oil leak. 1) rear main seal, 2) oil cooler and 3) oil pan. Since the transmission had to come down, I was thinking at 65500 miles, why not upgrade the clutch and possibly flywheel.



I purchased Eurocode's Stage III clutch assembly and Audi's dual mass flywheel. All three oil leaks were fixed.

With all the mods installed on MonSoonHell, she is practically a better and improved new(er) vehicle. Some other pictures...

Stock clutch was holding up pretty well.



Flex Plate teeth looked perfect..





I have more pictures taken by my shop as I could not be there during the initial break down and when the parts started coming in. So when I receive them I will update this thread.

I mentioned this in another Audi forum. Before you go searching for what I purchased, hopefully I get some good guesses..

Well, things in life always guide you in the direction you have to take.. And as I have been shopping around and my retirement is creeping closer, it appears the new car for me was right in front of me all along. It was more than I was wanting to spend, but it is definitely an investment. This purchase just took place last week. I do not want to post pictures yet, as it is getting a new clutch installed, being wet sanded and detailed. Plus I need to go to DMV and get my plates.

Instead of having, now three set of rims for MonSoonHell, I will only need two sets. One set for Fall and Spring and the other for Winter. My new(er) vehicle will be for Summer.

I can tell you the following...This vehicle is older than MonSoonHell. This vehicle is clearly not stock, it has everything I would have purchased and installed, had I purchased it stock. Manual transmission, of course. Runs on E-85 and can be switched back and forth from Premium fuel. It is tuned by Cobb. It has twin turbos and is AWD. It is a two door vehicle, with a rear spoiler (removed text - due to easy guessing what I have). If you guess the vehicle, I will post a picture(s)...or simply wait until the car is complete with new mods.

I was gonna say either a Nissan or Porsche, but then I saw your post over at the AZ forum. I didn't understand the part about the spoiler until I read it and now it makes sense. Nice pickup! Many safe miles and **** eatin' grin summer smiles.
