Talking Last look before the Snail Attack.

Well here are the last photos that will be posted before the modified manifolds and that pesky snail go onto the block. While the manifolds are off the block the engine bay will be hit with a toothbrush and pleanty of degreaser. The modified manifolds have been painted a heat resistant paint combo of black and gunmetal. When she's back on the road she will be wearing the 255/45/17's in the back and 235's up front on the Exel gunmetal wheels in my sig.. Body conversion to s5 and Paint will soon follow. ByeBye N/A.. HELLO TURBO 6port!!

Enjoy

*tear*

Actually for now the setup will consist of the following:

S4 T2 MAF
S4 T2 ECU
S4 T2 Fuel pump
S5 T2 Injectors on S4 Harness
S5 Turbo/manifolds
Hks Blow off Valve



So Stock basically for the most part. I plan to upgrade later when the S4 T2 motor I am having built is completed

Yeah, I have a lead on a T2 rear end, and I have a T2 tranny/driveshaft but that will occur when the 4 port motor is done.

I don't know, sounds pretty ghetto to me.

Are you using the TII intake manifolds as well?

Yes, I filled in the difference in the manifold and then extended the port out to the size of the 6 port manifold. The transition may not be perfect as the ports on the block are split and the manifold is one big opening.... But i really do not foresee any HUGE drop off in power.....
