For about 2 years, I've thought my tip transmission was ready to bit the dust...
but the dealer had always said it was operating perfectly! Well what's the thud when it down shfts into second & first? Long story short, engine mounts...in 2 years of dealer oil changes, it was just this past Saturday that a tech noticed that both mounts were toast while changing the oil!

Here's mine
<img src="http://schwanks.com/images/audi/sc/dyno.jpg" />
Notice it cuts before redline, I'd bet around 200whp/265 crank at redline. 92 octane with no quality controls here in Portland, and the motor had almost 70K as you can see.
Same craptane is the reason mine is coming off in a couple weeks. Can't tune the detonation out of it ;( Really sucks because it definitely makes the Avant a LOT more sporting. Still get owned by my buddy's stock WRX though.
Time for a p-car.

oh yeah, and to answer your questions...
The blower is 5K new from PES(pes-tuning.com). Figure around 10 hours of labor if you are not doing the install yourself.
The allroad lights fit only the 98-01 cars, and should just swap in if you have xenons, or require ballasts if you have stock halogens. Parts will probably total just south of 750. Ask me again in a week
