Congrats on the Audi, nice car. Going off that link you provided earlier stage 1+ (tune and pulley kit) Revo would be awesome. That's the way I'd go, 450hp and 610nm would be an animal!

Revo is one of the biggest VAG tuning companies. I was new to it all 18 months ago when I got MK7R and ended up going APR tune, quite amazing the gains off tune alone!

Correct. It's a money making scam. If they throw it in for free, you might get some benefit out of it (if you happen to fail one of the few items that is actually covered by the warranty). However, you're better off getting them to knock a couple hundy off the purchase price instead.

Why do you say you wish you saw this sooner?

The pick out of those three would've gone to Lexus, in the industry that would've been the move to make...if the vehicle is a short term thing enjoy the Audi and move it along within a few yrs and while the kms are nice and low

Unlikely to keep it more than 1-2 years, I figure will still be sub 50k kms max

    • The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!
    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
