Default Car is going under the knife tomorrow

Dropping my car off for 3-6 weeks to get the turbos replaced. Going with the AWE Stage 3, AWE intercoolers, AWE Stage 3 clutch, APR bi-pipe, and the AWE DTS...phew. Going to share 1 car with my wife/work from home until it is done. Should be a rocket when it is done..merry x-mas to me. The local audi dealer wanted $7 to replace 1 KO3 turbo...HA HA HA. For a few thousand more I will take the rocket.
