Only just caught up on this thread. Excellence in both engineering and artwork. Just wondered what exhaust system you have on it now the bypass valve is gone.

Hmmmmm, sex wee.....

Looks very good indeed,

What is the colour exactly? Is this an Audi colour?

Are the front and rear spoilers colour coded? (Under Bumper)

Also, are you planning on putting up any cost info for us, would be interested to know some of that as I am in the early stages of doing mine up, although I wont be going to your levels, I was thinking full respray etc!

Great colour choice JP and the wheels are an excellent choice.
You need to get this on track at Audi driver track day, Castle Combe in July.

[Christophski]

Try a posh car brand and that's the colour... Not sure if JP is telling lol!

[as2q]

Amazing work JP looks stunning! Love the colour

Wow, go away from the web for half a day and come back to a thread full of ego boost material.

Colour I'm not going to disclose as I spend months trying to find the right grey to compliment the size and shape of the car. I can however say it's not Audi.

@Duffelcoat, prices you'd need to speak to quattro coachworks with your requirements. As for colour coding yes all the lower bumper trim valances are colour coded as are the lower sills and the lower rubber doorstrips.

Now onto the fun of today.

Took her for her first proper shakedown drive to the tt shop to sort out the tracking on the car. And the 62plate amg merc can confirm it rides like a go kart little did he know I was on spring wastegate pressure short shifting at 4k on part throttle.

Then got within 500metres from home and the car just completely died and would not restart. Fortunately prj had landed at luton airport 30min earlier and was en route courtesy of the lads at qcworks to diagnose. His laptop got garbled info back from the ecu so he went to the ecu tapped it and the car started. Drove it back to qcworks tapped the ecu again and it stalled.

Great broken ecu

Ish at qcworks to the rescue and dug out a socketed ecu. So we figured we may aswell strike whilst the iron was hot. So after several hrs in sub zero temps prj had the ecu converted and the car running in neutral mafless using speed density.

45min roadtrip later with costash kindly following as backup as was getting late in the evening. The car is now stood home for the first time in 8mnths running sweet as in the low load range ready for driving to the dyno later in the week
