My s2 avant STEP 1

[AndersS2]

Fook me it fast!!

Well, did go for a little spin today, and boy it is fast. I also can feel the improvement of the "Promounts!! and it have transforemed the car to a racingcar feeling kinda thing. But that may be the cause of the 034 MS enginemounts aswell.

I dont dare to try the WOT before I have it mapped propper and read off all values and all seems to be good. Then we will try and also making a little video.

Anyway, I got bored so I did a photoshoot today after a little detail session. I'm trying to get some good photos, but its quite hard

Here you go:

Started off mounting the rest of the bits:





Then i enjoyed the sight of my newly beloved Carbon B- and C- pillars w/blue weave in the carbontwill so it looks "OEM":





Also did a view on how im gonna build my turbo brace setup from Javad (034 MS):





Got out for a little cruising in the nice weather:

Then the artist in me stood foreward:

Think this ended up kinda cool:





..really liked that spot :





HID powah' (and yes I'm awaiting new instrument bulbs from Mr Jones) :





Our local Movietheater:





Sign says "Thirsty?" -oh you bet I was!! :





And thats all for now.

Still lots to do with the car, so I'm far off beeing done. But atleast it drives.

Oh, and I too have the great stalling issue now.. hooray

cheers,
Anders

How is the air fliter plumbed onto your turbo? couldnt see from the pic above

Greg,
The Turbo has a 4" Cobrahead -> 4" tube w/inlet from the recirck vent -> 4" MAF -> 4" Airfilter

-> = Silicone hose

You think that may cause the stalloing? Only happens when hot though.
Car starts fine after that.

Anders you may want to speak to Corey on this problem, he solved it by moving the MAF to the pressure side and remap to suit.

The size of the cobra head is incredible! almost double the size of a 3" cobrahead

But for a tiny little earlier spoolup I'm sold to the 4" inlet

How much did that cobra head cost mate?

[AndersS2]

@ Mr "Stroker" : It costed $28.49 from the US. Not bad at all, and i also gt help from a very nice and helpfull forum member for shipping.

Lol, you just had to go the stroker way? going for 900awhp and 1700nm?

It was a great trip

My car did ok. I turned the boost down to 1,5bar to have some safety marging on my stock bottom end... I had some problems with my clutch on the way down. It didn´t like high speed cruising, so the closer we got to Nürburg the more it slipped. So for some time I was afraid the S2 had to stay of the track. But I decided to try some easy laps and see how it went... The more I used it the better it got But I decided to only take 4 laps because of these problems.
After some miles with high speed cruising on the way home it was slipping again... So I think I have a tiny leak from the gearbox or something...

Otherwise the trip was great, lots and lots of nice cars and perfect weather

And the track just has to be experienced, you just don´t get the right impression on videos and PS2. It is like a roller coaster, one lap has 300m in altitude difference
