pulled the trigger on going stg III
I've been working up numbers and ideas on a big mod project for my a6 2.7t since I blew a turbo some weeks ago, and last week i pulled the trigger with Eurotech and AWE components. I visited them and handed over some $ today and was very pleasantly surprised to see they had started everything ahead of schedule. I didn't get a lwfw with the rs4 clutch kit because I didn't think I'd be happy with the noise. I got to see my stock 85k mile flywheel today and it is great -they were very upfront about that and didn't force me into an unneeded replacement. I did go with AWE downpipes because eurotech wasnt familiar or therefore comfortable with piggies, and they are warranting the work. It's quite a project. AWE stg3+fueling, downpipes, rs4 clutch, new timing belt/water pump (done already), diverter valves, new throttle body boot, o2 sensors..... just about everything. And the final touch - blackout taillights.
Now I need an RNS-E navi and I'll be in business. They say all the work could be done as soon as friday... would be pretty amazing.

Re: CONGRATS! Did you get a Samco hose kit? If not, I would really recommend it. : >
No I didn't. The main one I was concerned about (debatable if youd call it a hose) is the TBB. I thought the samco looked stout, but Brian @ eurotech is convinced the new OEM piece has been sufficiently re-engineered to hold up to anything. I'm convinced he'll make it good if there are any issues, so I'm rolling that route.

add motor mounts... RNS-E next?
they apparently found my mounts had turned to mush, so it was a good time to get some RS4 mounts too.. to they are headed in. I thought about that drivetrain stabilizer they were just doing a group buy on, but I concluded that with all these mods I wouldn't appreciate it anyway - better to add later if I feel some need for it somehow. It would be better if I could invest in some kind of diamondplate steel full chassis skidplate and something to dynamically vaporize curbs before my wheels make contact - I get a little tight on the parallel parking some times. I'm REAL tempted to order the RNS-E now, but I'm very wary it'll demand a TON of my time to install. Anyone tackled this yet?
