[hinrichs]

[slimadi]

Looks sweet and neat im liking it with or with out the hood.

[Bruno730]

i like! installation looks clean as well. nice job.

Thanks for all the imput guys! The intercooler i got off ebay as well as the universal piping kit, the company was just-intercooler aka CXracing and cost me less than $150. I had to cut some of the piping to make it fit right and it wasnt too bad. Apprantently the owner before me broke off the tabs that held the bumper back on and i couldnt get it to fit back on, so ill be getting a new bumper here shortly. Im thinking about a s4 or rs4 bumper to make it look better.

Holy contrast batman. Car is looking good though. What kind of power do you think you're making?

[NickBroderick]

Always wondered what a b5 would look like without a hood... I dig it!

[NeedingAnAudi]

You sir, park like a jack ass. Love it!

I don't understand why the hood came off though, I've done timing belts before and the hood has never been in the way for me

I took it off because it blocks all the light. I have lights in my garage and the way i park my car if i was to leave it on, it would have blocked all the light and it was just easier to take it off than to deal with a flashlight and not being able to see.

Proabaly not that much, the a4 isnt known for its speed lol
I mean it feels quick but only having 150hp from the factory, it isnt fast by any means lol
