The Project Pad

Havent had an update in a while on here so i thought id update the community.

Flywheel and Clutch are on after finally locating the correct pilot bearing.





Changed out my lifters after the falure of the INA lightweight that were in Nick's car. Went OEM


Cat Cams!


I picked up another S6 in September been playing with it here and there.








Turbo/Dp/Mani on and all the lines hooked up, engine in its home.




and a quick clip of it running for the first time!

Looks great Matt.

Sounds so sweet...nice job. What are exhaust specs?

His exhaust is 034's single muffler setup. Downpipe/manifold is Hanks.

Car is back together!




.

Now left I have to figure out the charge piping and IC situation.

Looks great!
air to water IC?

Im going to entertain both options, its going to a friends shop and we will go from there. A2A simplifies a lot of things but may require some trimming of the euro bumper.

How was the install of that catch can? Ive been flip flopping on whether I should pull the trigger, I just need some BTDT experience to say "yes, its worth it"...

I have a FMIC getting shipped my way as we speak that allegedly fit behind the euro bumper with "minimal modifications"...it came off a British market "S4 Revo SMS" with the s6 front bumper like yours. I'll post an update in my project thread once its here with dimensions and actual severity of fabrication required... Between the price of this and the complexity of running an AWIC, I decided to try my hand at the FMIC...

Yea Matt i appreciate any help with the euro bumper. Is there a thread anywhere on it?. The catch can fits nicely and is made to be on our style of cars, comes with a flange to drain back into the block, all the hardware and such. is It worth that's up to the buyer, if you have blow by and use a oil container now it could be worth it lol. The install is very simple bolts just under the brake master using its stock bolts and like i said the kit comes with everything needed.

I'll keep an eye out.

I don't want to cut up my euro bumper so an awic may be in my future.

I think I missed which CC kit you ended up getting...

It was on one of the other Urs6s I bought and I switched it over. It's 034s

I'll keep you posted on what I end up doing. May have some awic parts I can forward on your way

Sounds good, thanks

Hey everyone, haven't posted up on here in a while but have been making some progress on the AWIC setup ill be running in my car. 1200hp rated core with custom end tanks built by a friend of mine. 27x7x2 heat ex changer and ill be running an additional water tank that should hold 1-1.5 us gallons. pictures below.


























all for saving the Euro bumper!

I think the end tanks should hold up fine with those reinforcements. Damn

Looking good Matt

lets hope so! it'll all be painted black with Eastwood radiator paint to try to help the cooling process too

I wish there was a more direct path to the IM. Looks good though!

Let's see that exchanger mounted

Looks great Matt, she going to make it to 40's?

Yeah man that's my plan, it'll have the front big brake kit on and hopefully the fuel system.

ill post the exchanger pics tomorrow Nick.

Here are some pictures of the ex-changer mounted and you can see the minimal trimming that was done to fit it in there. Everything will be painted black with Eastwood Radiator paint , have to keep with my color scheme

Looks good! I assume you're moving the oil cooler to the driver's side

The oil cooler is staying on the passenger side, were changing one line and mounting it off to the side of the core, pretty much the same location but at a 60-70 degree angle. Not enough room to go to a bigger one :(
