Looks like you had fun, did the car behave?

Changed out FPR
went over pins on MAF with needle file and plug is in good shape.
Ignition system is tip top so I will get another MAF to try and look in to checking fuel pressure.

I fixed my 00561 issue with new FPR

Could be MAF connector. Worth a clean, my 3b used to do the same thing. And reset itself after s rest.

Nice fix on the ISV

00561 code;

Yea, checked doonpipe and torqued exhaust manifold bolts.
Was checking flanges on startup for moisture but all ok.

Have you leak tested the full intake path?

Yea pressurised everything and scooted the lot with soapy bubble including moisture trap and vac hose connections.

Have you checked the exhaust for leaks pre-lambda? I had the same code and I think that a leaking downpipe and wg flexi flange were to blame.

Been checking the car for Knockhill this weekend.
Changed oil and filter, also the brake fluid.
Got the boost leak kit out and pressurised to 1.4bar to check for leaks.
Removed cam cover breather from intake hose and plugged.
Removed hose from wastegate and fitted gauge on the end.
Plugged hose after intercooler to carry out first check not including anything after the throttle body.
Disconnected DV from intake and plugged hose to check 710 was good under pressure.
Then after confirming all ok, reconnected hose to include rest of intake and pressurised to 1.4 bar.
Everything was air tight apart from the electrical plug end of the ISV.
I bought resin about a year ago to repair the ISV so decided to sort it now.
Wrapped some cardboard round the ISV with insulation tape then filled with resin.
After all that I tested again and found no more leaks and it takes over 1 min to return to 0.
Unfortunately I'm still having issues with 00561 code and 1bar of boost but what I'm finding now is if I switch off or let it idle for ten minutes it takes off like a scalded cat and boosts to 1.4bar?

Very much a fan of the S8s, but those Avantgardes look pretty great also.

Looks lovely set at that level with the KW suspension. Having an uprated RARB is a good idea, you'll notice the change / improvement.

Enjoy.

lovely looking car,nice project
i love it with the Avus wheels

[andy10v]

Car looks good, looks like a nice lodge.

Better not bring the Avantgardes to Knockhill, they might end up on a green coupe

[Rusty]

So jealous of those wheels...
