Oil cooler pipes

I am looking to change the supply pipe and return line to the oil cooler. Can anyone tell me how difficult a job is it, what needs to be removed to get to the pipes (bumper etc.) and how long would you expect it to take? Also is there anything else that maybe worth doing / replacing at the same time...

I did question them on this and they told me there is some sort of Y pipe in the back box so one outlet wouldn't make a difference. I wasn't sure.
If it is one pipe what would the diameter need to be to avoid any problems?

Custom Exhaust

I have looked at getting at getting a custom built cat back exhaust system built which will be twin 2.5" pipes. Will it restrict or cause a flow problem if after the back box the tail pipe exits as one pipe and then goes to two pipes? The standard exhaust has the two tail pipes exiting directly from...

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Some good news about camshaft we

I have had my cams replaced at MRC a couple of months ago. I personally wouldn't of knew they needed replacing by the engines sound or any perfomance related issues only when it was opened up for a gasket to be replaced that it was noticeable. Only small amounts of pitting was visible but i was advi...

RE: Noggy B5 RS4 Bromsgrove, Worcs today

Now that you mentioned what car it was i do recall the S3, i looked back in the mirror to double check what it was, sometimes you just can't be sure.

Don't recall the A4 but it was nice to sort of see you anyway.
