i just elongated the holes and used big washers on my holset with a standard t3 drain flange. Worked fine, cant be seen.[/quote]
Yeah I thought about that. But I would have to elongate them all the way out to the end I think and I'd be worried about it leaking. NO issues with yours?
05 A6 4.2 18x8 ET48 with 225/40/18 and 20mm spacer front and rear. Pre-coilovers but they are in the trunk just waiting on wheel bearings and to weld on my lower front spring mounts so I can install the coilovers.
Oh and I'm installing my nice brakes too when the coilovers are finally ready to go. :woowoo:
I like the wheel choice as well. What spring rates are you using with the coilovers? What's the eta for the engine install? When is that thing gonna run?

Engine is already installed it's the stock engine with an OEM spec built head with 7a cams.
I can probably have it running in a weekend if I actually put time into it. Sans the intercooler piping. Need to find someone who welds aluminum around here. Not much luck. Bleh.
I'm shooting for Oct 1st for both my cars to start up and run.
Flying across the country and they have wifi on the plane woot woot. Not much done cleaned up the valve cover cam gear on and some fittings for my fuel rail on. Tim should have my front struts all fancy for me when I get back so I can put in my coilovers. Woot woot.
Yeah I honestly love her. Just sucks I have two projects going on seem to be taking foreverrrrrrr. Plus working on everything by yourself sucks (no car friends on base :/, except one but hes always wrapped up doing gf things). Oh well, SOON!!

Not yet but soon! I have been in the process of moving for a while now. Finally got everything unpacked and got settled in. So I actually plan to get the V8 A4 to the new place this weekend. The 200 should get towed to the new place before the new year so I can finish her up to. Anxious to get both these cars done and happy I got the new place taken care of finally.
Progress!!! Test fitted some IC pipes from Tim he did for me (thanks a bunch, seriously).
They are going to be great just wanted to make sure they will work and they will work fine. Now going to coat them and install them on the car. Then I just need to worry about my fuel system, VEMS, and misc. small odds and ends. Very very very excited.
