Default first on the block? (longish)

Due to the snafu with customs and all that my DV from AWE was in danger arriving after I left NJ (current diversionary location) so since I always wanted to meet Todd face to face anyway, I drove the hour or so to AWE and picked up my DV in person. Probably Todd figured I'd hose it up and/or just cause he's a nice guy, he put it in for me after my 225 cooled off (takes a while). It looks pretty straightforward. Thanks Todd!

Impressions - both local city driving stuff and highway: the throttle is smoother in a subtle way. Not so jerky. And no noise. On the highway the turbo still has some lag - oh well but I think the power comes on more consistenly.

Whew, now all I have to do is my preventative swap on my A4.

Thanks again Todd!
