The custom driveshaft was delivered yesterday so all I need left is a few small items. Engine is running perfect right now and after finding cracks in my LIM, installing new o-rings on the injectors.

Exhaust is a little to quit but sounds great. Running collected RB headers to a full RB rev TII exhaust system. I had to cut of the old 3in flange on the presilencer and welded a new 2 1/2in flange at a different angle and distance to let the system all bolt up.

After working on my last turbo 7 were the previous owner shortcutted just about everything I am making to do this one right, this project should be more reliable than my current v8 setup and almost as quick.
The engine is a S5 rebuilt by me with a medium-large street port. Running all s5 electronics including ecu with a rtek2.1 chip (regret not just going with a standalone for the amount of time and money involved with this setup). Both VDI and auxillary ports are functional with Pineapple Racing sleeve inserts. Decided stock intake with K&n filter is superior to all the aftermarket hot air intakes. Exhaust as mentioned before is a custom complete system by Racing Beat.

Not a mod but did a manual swap using a gem of a TII tranny.

Next on the list is suspension components and a GTU's Differential. I am just stoked that this project is nearing a point were I can drive it after almost a year.

Thank you Jesse for the clean low mileage Fc and Transmission.
Thank you Robert for all the advice and engine components.
Will keep you guys updated with pictures.

Looks like I won't be able to make it since I'm not supposed to be driving the car, but I still have to drive it from Sac to Riverside.

Is it true if I just pay the bail amount on a ref ticket it "goes away?"

If so you need an S4 auto counter-weight, and if so, I hate you.
