Jet Jockey/A4 Pilot

First good news of the day. We finally got the alignment done today, 4 hours tweaking the MF! But WOW, does this thing handle now, even with the not so high performance Michelin Sports 4 seasons on. The steering input is to die for!!! Blink as mush as a millisecond or just think of turning and it's gone, my car's nose is pointing where you want it in an instant (hard on).

Seconds good news of the day. My Dahlback intake manifold is in my hands. My ugly baby finally made it home, only papa would love a kid with such a face. Pictures to come soon, perhaps later to night. It is a pretty neat design and it is hard to see inside the plenum chamber but it sure looks like some effort went into the design to control/modify the flow. It almost looks like there is another chamber inside the plenum, cool. Can't wait to have it on and see if I get the promised gains. This brings me to the one bad news on the day...

My luck with this DB intake seems to be bad. Now that I have it, the person doing the install can't take me this week, ****, is DB and company trying to give me a heart attack or what?! I guess it is more waiting for me (and you).

why not do it your self? It's only a couples of bolts and nuts, no?

usually with specs like that you should corner like on rails but suffer a bit on high speed due to the twitchy nature of the specs.
Very impressed with amount of work and research into the parts on this car. looking forward to seeing it in person.
