Tacos 4KTQ I0vt Swap: The Red Baron - buying parts again

[AngryTaco]

Glad to hear that. Your exhaust is gonna be 3" with just a single muffler?

Yes. Single 3" in, dual 2.25" out

After the exhaust is done!

sure, but we dont wanna wait till next year

[AngryTaco]

Wow big difference between the cams. MC2 pulls 4-5" when cruising at 50 in 5th vs 0". Definitly not as much torque. Im thinking 2-3 degeees retard will put it where I want it. Im thinking this will be a good winter setup and swap in the oter one for summer

[40v4kq]

So it was the cam! I bet the turbo spools up a little sooner too.

[AngryTaco]

It's honestly hard to tell. I only drove it 1.5 miles, if that, this morning. WIth the other cam, the power was onset and holy balls hangon kinda feeling. The MC2 cam seems to be more rounded in the power curve. I'm still getting 4th gear fuel cutoff, but I'm sure thats due to the FP not being relayed, WHICH IT WILL BE TOMORROW. I took tomorrow off from work so I can finish up the street legal issues. We'll see how this thing acts after I crank the boost up to 17 from 14 and relay the pump

[AngryTaco]

THE EXHAUST IS DONE!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now where is that vid at?

[AngryTaco]

:curses: :stupid: :bullshits: I'll think about uploading a video tonight :dur:

[40v4kq]

Finally! It better be a couple videos...one from the outside so we can hear that, then one from the inside while driving. Time for you to get a gopro.

[AngryTaco]

No no no no no. For the most part chevys are boring. The audi is definately not boring, has as a lot of potential, and is way more useful than any old chevy except for maybe a truck...and you already have a truck. Plus, the audi may possibly be more reliable than a slightly built chevy, and definately more fun.

Now, could you atleast post some pics. Sheesh you are slacking!

:vids:
I feel like an addict waiting for a fix

[AngryTaco]

Ok guys drove the car home tonight. Two words: Holy Shit. Got the exact sound I wanted. Extremely minimal interior resonance when cruising, an excellent sounding idle (not obnoxious), and loud when you get on it. I will never buy a different brand of muffler again. I love the idle. Its not too loud but its enough to let you know its there. It sounds orgasmic when on it. Definitly sounds like a hot 5-cylinder

[40v4kq]

Thats great, and we'd all believe you but without video its all a big lie!

[GTJeff]

Yea, Taco, you've had almost 4 whole hours since the exhaust was finished! That's plenty of time between classes and homework to post up a video....

[40v4kq]

Man, i posted "during" videos while building my first exhaust. I might just do it again.

[AngryTaco]

I sent a vid to your phone dan. As of right now I am without internet and my phone sucks ass at recording sound. I will try to upload something to youtube tonight when my internet hotspot (Mom) comes home lol

[pkw]

[AudiSport4000]

[40v4kq]
