I have a S5 GTU with a landers rebuilt and ported motor 3500, it's black *** black, with a highflow cat, intake, working VDI/5th and 6th ports and E-fan. Also has intrax springs/tokico blue suspension and Rota slipstreams with 225/50/16's Kuhmos.

I'm Also installing a stereo in it soon. I have a headunit for it (Kenwood X589) mp3/sirius ready with Non-fading preouts for a sub amp. I may order speakers for it... and I may not.

the 5th and 6th ports, vdi, umm, I think there was some other random weird stuff too

I think that stuff would break alot easier than a turbo would... a turbo is pretty strait forward.

Well anyway.. a turbo just have alot of many wires and cords wherethere could easily be a leak or something in one of them.. and it would take you longer to find it than it would in a n/a..

and Tofu.. ya simple engine is what you were talkin to me about the last time i was down there? if so.. it would be one easy *** to see engine.. but a bitch if anything did mess up.

speaking of hiring

Speaking of hiring if you got the skills. i've been trying to get my foot in the door as a mecahnic for awhile now. I'm not the best in the werld when it comes to troubleshooting yet, but I get better with every try.
I werk fast and acurately, and I make the werk eviornment fun.
So if anyone has connections in the shop around the annapolis, severna park, GB area. PLEASE try to get me a better job than the one I"m at.
i have no problem doing bitch werk for awhile as long as I get to learn a few things.
