[Rikki Kitto]

Amazing adventure thanks for sharing

[Ian Simmonds]

Just awesome Dave, well done bud.

[Tractor Dave]

Cheers guys.
Picked up a few bugs on the French motorway.


MPG was quite good in UK at around 33mpg. Dropped drastically when average speed was 90mph on autoroute. 26mpg at worst! Also not easy to find good high octane petrol out there and found that S2 tank isn't very big when mpg drops. Eek

I just absolutely love owners who still treat them like they were designed for… Epic…

Great road trip Dave thanks for sharing. Glad you got such a warm welcome. I suppose today is clean off the bugs and fire up the UR? Keep us posted. Cheers

[B5NUT]

looked a very good trip, hope you enjoyed it Now that the fun's over get back to work. That UR is not going to finish it's self.

I came by an RS2 intercooler (as you do).
These are on offer with Audi Tradition atm.


Now the ABY crossmember needs some small adjustments.
The right bracket is in the way and you need to fabricate a new one.


No going back now.



Using some scrap I had knocking about I made something up.


Welded it up.



Zinc paint then satin black.

Almost looks oe.


It's certainly strong.

They are about £300. Half normal price

[psiconauta911]

The ABY ones are also half price for now.

What difference is the rs2 intercooler vs s2?
apart from the mounting obviously.

Much bigger

Still fits under the bumper okay I assume?

[Tractor Dave]

Yes, just.
She had a good test yesterday, driving some 240 miles to vorsprung International. Boosting nicely and feels good. I doubt if I will ever notice the small increase in BHP that the bigger intercooler should give.
