Thanks. I have heard a lot of opinions about them. Only thing I know, is a love 'em or **** 'em thing. Nothing in the middle.

First Engine Power-Up - Stock Turbo

The story is, I decided to get some more power even on the stock turbo, so as to be a bit quicker on the track...The car had an overboost of 0,5bars and the car was bearly moving...hahaha...So with the help of Etuners in Greece, we gained some power...However the stock fuel injectors were very small,but the used ones had 12% more fuel supply from my stock ones...

Let the pics speak for themselves

ECU cap that had to be removed (easily cause I hadnt put the rear screw on purpose the time i had the cap painted)



Then we saw this cover which is OEM and is for security...



but with the use of this...



We made this...



and so we removed it....



and then took it off to reprogram it...



We removed the stock injectors, and put on the bigger ones



here are those I had on the car, that would only give fuel cuts



and here is the result of all this, and a happy smile on my face...



The car was, approximately +45-50 hp than before...The maf measurement showed it...
Well, it was a Pimp My Ride period back then...hahaha

I heard the same when I painted my AMG wheels red

Well I must say they look nothing less than awesome.

Then I got into installing the RS4 rear sway







We lifted the car



The exhaust had to come down a little



Then, we had to remove the old stock swaybar





here it is



Then time to put on the new one











Verry happy with the result and the process. The cost is low as well. A definately to-do mod

really nice build mate but i have to ask... is your car running 1.7bar of boost on idle o_o ?

And I have to answer

Sadly No, it isnt. I can however turn the needle where I want to, when setting the warning light-coming-on point, thus the photo

Cheers, and thanks for the positive feedback.

Time for some more weight removal

Had some free time, so I decided to try once again to remove some stuff I wanted and I hadent managed it the first time...

This was a real pain in the ass, and I am getting bored from now, just thinking how i could put it back...

I removed a lot of weight though...Check it out



First I removed the sub and the big grey part, along with the mid harness



Then I continued to take out the rest









however I have to put back again a third stop light...either the stock one, or another one which is easy too...

I then received the Short Shifter Kit from JHM...The waiting was long but I believe it was worth it. I would like to thank Jason who was always there when I wanted something.

So some pics from the kit...













Now the difficult part was to put it on, as I had no previous experience with this...

And what to you know, I did make it happen

Some pics from the process

[jeger]

That is a huge beast !! No circuit pictures with it ?

Thank you there. Yes, there are many pics, they will come, wait for it

And then I took some more weight off the car (small pics are clickable and will expand)

Was in a mood this morning and decided to take some more weight off the car....




Before:



And afterwards...



And the bolts that were holding everything in place...24...LoL... []



And this is how the car was standing out at November 2008
