Swapping auto pedals to Manual pedals is a whorish job.

Yeah like the thread states. Swapping the pedals is a bitch, and only because i don't have tiny *** hands. if anybody has any hints or tips or perhaps a supersecret passcode to put the nut onto the long *** bolt for the pedals under the dash it'd be greatly appriciated. the damn wiring harness is in the way and i don't know how much i can fit my hand in there when it's so damn cramped.

I'll give you a hint, it's not supposed to be on an S5 in this manner.--pics coming VERY soon. just gotta run to the garage to get pics of my custom workage.

allright so i took a few more pics than i had to, hence the delay in posting them up, but i still was fast!

OK so what's different about my S5 throttle body?


How many engines can you count? and how many can you guess work!

Where the Hell does this Vac line connect to? I can't for the life of me, no matter how many schematics I look at, figure it out.

Here is my 630 dollar engine, everythign was included aside from the UIM. it's an S4 so i had to slightly Mod the block and the ACV. the ACV is now a ghetto style block off plate, what you do guys think? lol



Well let me know if you figure out what's different about my throttle body.
Peace,
Matt
