Default EuroSpec 2.2 vs old 1.8

Just thought I'd share a pic of the new vs old. With all that extra bracing I guess it'll be a little heavier; however, I think the extra bracing is a cool thing considering the extra HP we'll have running through this thing. Mine is the long block with the extra deck cooling option and the girdle

Default About six months ago I tired something, and unfotunately had a defective part

the concept was good but the part was bad, and as a result, I decided to just gut the whole thing, and make the TT the way I really wanted it to be.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/tt/msgs/1621788.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/tt/msgs/1621788.phtml</a</li></ul>

Default I wasn't aware they had a bad rep...

If you look at their list of dealers, quite a decent aftermarket guys use them. Do you have any links to any of the horror stories. Too late for me, but I'd like to read them. I didn't go with their cams, I am using shrick instead, also I'm not getting their crap stock grind / cast stuff, all of mine is their top of the line forged items.
