    Working as a CAD monkey for a contractor is a bit different to working in a place that machines metal as part of their business

    I want to improve the covers aesthetically and also remove dead weight and restrictions to airflow, as well as improving cable routing and maybe even sort the breather out too...

    Not much then.

      Here's a mock up with 20mm spacers. I will look at removing material from the coil cover and cleaning it and the rocker cover up and giving them a lick of paint. This will improve air flow and I think it looks perfectly acceptable.

              Yes, take the lower lip and reprofile the cam cover.

              Calm down Dave, no need to shout

                I mean the different version of TFSI coils have different end height, so I guess you need the correct ones?

                    I can visualise plenty of heat radiating off those coil tops shown in the pic that Jonas re-posted.

                      I'm not t that worried about heat to be honest.

                      More worried about the right coil height

                        You can't ignore the heat, but I fully agree the visual attributes of that cover with COPs sitting at right height looks really sweet.
