The Project Pad

lol. hmm. wonder if i could do the same.... sure it isnt actually knocking/ pre detonating?

Yeah its not knocking. I had several people ride in it an they all agreed that no knocking is present. Especially at 14psi and 91-93 oct

i wonder if mine is being tripped due to my exhaust... factory down pipe and nothing else...

My exhaust is factory 5ktq downpipe. It opens up to a 3". Have you tried differnt sensors?

Honestly no. Its been too damn cold. Haha. Havent driven it much either.

Got my summer fix list together:

URq HD Bilsteins (Im not liking my t44 shock setup)
034 Strut Mounts
3" Mandrel Bent DP
More Port work on EM followed by welding a brace between runners, followed by milling
All exhaust components ceramic coated including turbo hotside
Volvo K24
Redo all exhaust studs with SS and copper locking nuts
Ceramic Coat IM
New passenger and driver tie rods (with powdercoating)
Jergen Reman Rack and Pinion
New PS Lines
Powdercoat front and rear sway bars
Fix WG flexi coupler
Front CQ springs in rear and level out car

I like this list. Carry on.

were you planning on my volvo k24?

I think there is something missing from that list. Possibly the most expensive part(s).

vems

I was just going to say EFI to cover all the parts associated with it

Was hoping so.

I do plan to go VEMS but that fix list is more important right now. I need a 100% solid car to support solid power

SOB!!! I think the driver window reg died or something. The cable is all screwed up inside, its 20 degrees outside, and its half way down...WTF. The window reg wants to move the window but due to the cable being all F'D up, it wont go anywhere. Does that mean the reg went out? Someone get me one!

Pro tip....dont roll down the windows in freezing temps in older Audi's

Call up and get you one, yo!

hahaha yup haha its toast

Alright so I got a regulator coming from my trusty source as soon as the weather isnt below freezing where he is. In the mean time I am going to attempt to replace and fix the cable.....perhaps I'll come up with a repair kit and sell it lol

Ok, for a gigiganormous amount of $2.50, I got 10ft of 1/16" cable, 4 cable stops, and 2 center crimps, I am going to attempt to repair the window reg tonight

Let us know how it turns out. Im sure there are more than a few people with the same problem.

Me, I need the stud mounts for the motor. :(

That is how the driver's window on my Urq was repaired.....works well!! Actually works better than the other since everything was cleaned and lubed while apart. Good luck.
