Those ports look really narrow :/ You probably get a lot of port noise don't you?

last night we stripped all the dash & front seats back out, ready for a for the hole S3 loom to go in.
S3 loom is now in the car & going the bulk head
Loom is connected up to everything behing the dash, it's all in the right place to see if we have missed anything & it will also help us when we go to wrap & tidy the loom up.
All the loom in the engine bay has been placed where it should go & all the components that will eventually need connecting are placed in the rough area where they will or need to go.
I know I will have problems using the S3 brake master cylinder & servo as there is minimum space between the engine & firewall.
First time we connect diagnostics to the car, read the bottom of the screen
S3 fuel pump connector
Mk3 fuel pump connector
I took the S3 ABS pump off & put the in the mk3 for now it is just sitting in the engine bay connected to the loom so that we have communication through diagnostics.

A lot has gone on since last up date, the engine is back out again & loom has been re run behind the dash & through the chassis legs. What MISSION that was
I had to get my snap on video scope to see in side the chassis leg, hiding the loom has taken up so much time you wont under stand & what makes it worse is that I am running a lot more in the engine bay than the mk3 set up.
I could of made my life easier & not used or got rid of a lot things like washer bottle sensor, heated washer jets & so on but that would of been to easy
Lamda sensor wires run under the carpet through a conveniently placed grommet under the drivers floor
Spot the fro OH NO IT's TIED UP
Mk3 wiper assembly & motor
The plug is different from the S3 one so this also had to be changed
I have removed the alternator + wire so that I can put a bigger one in for the I.C.E
We found an old inter cooler in the workshop from a 2009 audi A4 2.0 tdi which we fitted an up graded one to, so I know this one is mint.
Placed it under the mk3 slam pannel & it looks like it could work
All I need to do now is trim the front bumper reinforcer mount it & see if I can get some inter cooler pipes & silicone hoses to it I some for my subaru which are blue which I will use on here for now & then get something a different colour later, may be white or black ?????

I didn't end up finishing the car for the blitz, I was tired & we had loads of customers that turned up Friday & Saturday.
We still went down to both shows & what a day we had, very tiring but awesome.
Oh well at least now I can finish it all before it comes out, next deadline has been set which is DC11
I have about a month to complete the hole project.
List
Finish smooth engine bay
Inter cooler & piping
Exhaust
Body work ??? may be a repaint or a wrap ??? I dont know yet but I want to stay with arches.
I.C.E
That is it I think.
Next up date coming up later on today.Last edited by Bespoke Division; 05-16-2011, 05:37 PM.
