Nice work Paul. It was great to meet a bunch of you guys today and bull**** for a bit. I had some issues with the RWD, but the new bests of 1.34 in the sixty foot and 4.0 at the 330 were significant improvements in my times. Neither was on a clean pass though of course.

See you fools at NOPI.

I got a quick question for you. If you ran an 11.0, did they say anything about not comming back until you have a full roll cage? I was just wondering, thanks and congrats!!

Nice man! Once they accept you, introduce yourself in the Newbie section (even though you aren't one) and/or throw up pics of Patches in the Rides section

Thanks again to Dave for his help, garage, tools, & food during the parts install today ! And of course thanks to Turcos! I owe you guys!!

I just ordered 5mm spacers. They were like $75 shipped (for the pair), so really not that bad. These should work out pretty well. All the searching I did led me to believe I need about 3mm, so the 5mm should be plenty. It also showed me that there is so much miss-information on this board, it is f'ing ridiculous.

So thanks again guys, and I should have some pics of the car, lowered and with all 4 new wheels on later this week ;-)

Also, to dave and marshall. These are what the wheel studs look like (from racingbrakes website) it is splines, like i thought, not screwed in like we suspected.



And marsh, you are missing o2 housing in your mod list as well as the springs and new wheels.

Turco: interesting man, good call on that. Looks like they're not terrible to replace if you ever need to.

turcos owns another evo spring install??? hahah

davids i want ice cream!!!

beater update: teh audi is running pretty good. we put her through the paces on a boston trip this weekend. she got two new tires and a 4 wheel alignment. o yeah, apparently she is fwd not quattro lol. she failed emissions so i have to figure that out. im leaning towards it being a cat/exhaust issue. the engine seems to be running fairly strong and i seem to be getting decent gas mileage... i just dumped some injector cleaner in today. im thinking about doing spark plugs and possibly trying sea foam. anyone have any recommendations for an audi mechanic if i need to have someone look at her?
