Hey all,
After being bored out in Estonia's Audi club forum I decided to turn here for suggestions, critics, praise and just trying to be active.
To start it off I'll tell the story how it all began. My sister was getting on the nerves of my mother to get a car for her. So I told her she could have my FWD C5 1.8T (chipped by prj) if they are willing to buy me a quattro in substitution. So the search begun in september 2013. Once there was a message in my mailbox: I have an S4 Avant for sale. Some quick action and was told that the rear end is slightly damaged and she rattles under boost.
Never the less 1750€ (Wtf?!) later the car was mine and unfortunately there aren't any pictures of it because of tinypic deleting their old pictures. Here is the oldest I cound find, a nice Audi 100 Avant with no badges:
I got it and the mileage was 213500 km, now it's nearly 255k. Also found some documents that about 100k km have been removed by some honest businessmen. It was originally sold to Austria. It has a 6 speed manual and beige non leather interior with cruise control, servotronic and sunroof being the most noticable extras.
Meantime many many things have been done to that Audi. At the moment some remarkable upgrades in the spec list below:
Garrett GT3071/k26 turbo
Original WG with 2 WG springs (original + turbosmart lighter)
FSI coils
NGK PFR7B sparkplugs
ADU exhaust manifold
3" exhaust with Simons rear pot (droney setup)
Oil catch can straight from engine
AAN SRE clutch plate
ADU/ABY clutch disc
Custom SKF clutch bearing
7A one mass flywheel
Bosch 044 fuel pump
Bosch 700 cc fuel injectors
Koni yellow shocks (4 out of 5 turns to max)
H&R 29800 (C3) springs
90 grade poly engine mounts at sides, hockey puch in front
90 grade poly rear diff mount
Small FMIC 500x250x65
MAFless setup by prj
Engine is completely stock and has never been opened more than chaning the hydraulic lifters.
Running on Castrol 10W-60 only with oil change every 4000-6000 km.
On the shelf waiting:
e38 Brembo's with adapters, discs and pads (still running on UFO's)
D3 A8/Phaeton rear discs with adapters
Didn't find a reason at the moment to make a summary about all the usual parts which need to be replaced on an old C4 such as heater core and bushings to light swiches in interior
At the moment I haven't officially timed 1/4 time, but got to 238 km/h on 1 mile.
Approximately should be a high 12 capable setup. Running on 1,7 bar boost at the moment with a relatively safe ignition timing. No problems there for 1,5 year already and when considering my way of driving this old Audi it's actually really surprising it has put up to this kind of torture that well
More picture material (older ones from 2014 beginning):
New Avus 17" to change from the 15" winter tires which I'm still using due to UFO brake pros.
Here you could see the slightly smashed rear end:

New package:
With 230 original hp AAN
Then bad things for the wallet started to happen:
Spoiler with a new painted rear lid
Interior:
Some more interior:
With winter wheels
Exhaust beginning to take shape:
Still with OE suspension (NOT 1BE sports)
Then it got to the point where Garrett wanted to start spinning
As you see, it is quite safe and limited at the moment:
This summer after OMC and a result of 238 km/h, with Koni and H&R already.
Engine mounts:
And cleaned up engine bay
Future plans hold a 600 +-50 hp setup as almost all other bits and pieces are upgraded to achieve it with complete engine overhaul and turbo. Maybe it happens in 1 maybe in 3-4 years.
I think it's quite enough for the first post already. Take care!
