Hey fellas, link to my write up and info. re: my GIAC KO4'd B6 A4 1.8T.
Some great results. I know there are quite a few B6 A4 1.8T guys in the Boston area.
Car is running very strong. I linked the AZ thread.

looks good...couple of questions
did KTR measure A/F with a sniffer or wideband? Seems like DBW 1.8T's don't have a very rich midrange. My car runs pretty lean like that and then richens in the top end as well. I've always atributed my lean midange to the innaccurate snoffer but it seems others have this A/F tendency as well. Your numbers are very consistent which is nice. What route are you going for FMIC? Any plans to hit Epping?

this seems to differ quite a bit car to car
I wouldn't think oil temps to be too much to talk about with highway driving conditions. Mine dropped from about 215 to about 200 when I started using the updated oil filter on my car.

Re: what kind of oil temps do you see during sustained highway driving w/o a fmic?
I have no idea as I have never checked. I know that I run the larger filter and I have been changing my oil every 5,000 miles using Mobil 1 0W-40.
Can I pull oil temps with Vag-Com?

Re: what kind of oil temps do you see during sustained highway driving w/o a fmic?
i ment just with the stock oil guage on the dash. iv never been in a b6 but i always figured it had one. even on my stock turbo when im crusing at 80 or 85 for a sustained period of time i start to see high oil temps depending on the temp outside.
