[mr_aj_johnson]

hmm I remember the psshhhht being a bit more violent

[AngryTaco]

Lol. Ill try to get a good vid up tomorrow

[40v4kq]

I didnt get the video, probably because my phone cant play video. Dont bother trying to resend it.

[AngryTaco]

Oh and btw, for anyone who is wondering, the 5th gear swap is totally worth it. Way lower RPMs, and MUCH QUIETER CRUSING!!!

[my2000apb]

video?

[AngryTaco]

Its coming. Forgot that the internet flew down to California for a week. Ill have the laptop at school tomorrow to upload it. Sorry :(

Lmao

Drove the car for the first time into town this morning. All readings are where they should be. The MC2 cam is definitly more driver friendly for the street. 5th pulls excellent vacuum even in the city at 35+ mph. Couldnt help but get on it at a stop light. Im gonna get in so much trouble with this. And did I mention? ABSOLUTELY EXTREMELY MINIMAL INTERIOR NOISE!!! You can barely hear the exhaust. Once I get the speakers and subs hooked up, the car will damn near be perfect for taking me up to the ski mountain

[85oceanic]

Sweet man! Soooooooo... ... ...

[40v4kq]

I had the same thoughts about getting in trouble with my car. Only been caught once so far

[DE80q]

Should make you proud againt the damn WRX now. Lets get some vids of it this time!

[AngryTaco]

I hope it at least stays with it or pulls harder. It doesnt feel as powerful but who knows

Car sounds great man!!!

[40v4kq]

Thank you for that! Sounds great(maybe a little too loud for your mic). If you come out to salem during thanksgiving we can strap like 8 gopros (mine and aarons) on there and make one heck of a driving video.

[Kyle94]

You sound so enthusiastic!
"yay Audi...." lol.
THAT sounds amazing! :O

[evilandonehalf13]

very nice. me likey!

[AngryTaco]

Finally relayed the fuel pump last night. Wow big difference. I actually had to back off the wastegate as the turbo started producing over 22psi lol. Now Im getting a misfire, but I also found out the plug wires are arcing. Weird because I tested them all and they checked out fine. Guess I now have an excuse to buy new wires

[DE80q]

Thats great! Im glad to hear she is running strong. What wires are you planning to get?

[AngryTaco]

Just factory Bosch replacements. Nothing special

[AngryTaco]

Ok did a lot today. Got the CEL all wired up. I used a spare defog switch wired to the FP relay to check codes without having to go underneath the hood. I was trying to solve my cut out issue and managed to pull a knock sensor code. Changed the sensor, still have the problem, but no codes now. Ill drive it longer tomorrow and see what happens.

Also got all the lockers working correctly. Its snowing pretty good so tomorrow should be pretty fun

[AudiSport4000]

You did exactly what I did (I even used a fog switch too). Glad you got that hooked up
