You need tractor wheels to make the roads in Edinburgh more bearable - the worst city I have ever been in for potholes and generally crap roads.

Sounds like you have disconnected the WGFV - check the coinnections are dry!

Audi do the touch up spray cans of paint and lacquer - they do for the Audi wheels - I thought they would for the RS2 wheels. A good paint shop should also have the touch-up cans of paint and lacquer.

There is also the "spit and polish" place that refurbs wheels.

What are you planning on making? A direct replacement for the RS2 EM? If so it will be hard to make a tubular EM that is that tightly packaged. It will probably require a custom downpipe due to moving the position of the turbo. You probably won't be able to keep the airbox. There are probably a few ...

Good to hear it is sorted but can you say why 7 plugs sorted it? Did you get some new duff ones !

Mihnea mapped my car this weekend so I now have over 400bhp, maybe as high as 450bhp - but more importantly my car is running so I will be at Billing.

Mihnea (S2Tuner on here) is coming to remap my S2 (going for 450bhp) over the weekend of the 11th to 13th of June. It is in the east of scotland - Fife. If you have not heard of Mihnea - then look on www.s2forum.com - he posts a lot there - he can do custom maps setup for your turbo car - petrol or ...

You can get porsche calipers on your S2 with other discs and custom brackets - and not bother changing the hubs/wheels. I'm not up on my brakes as I was lucky to get my car with an AP Racing kit, so I haven't had to upgrade it. If you look in the brakes section of www.s2forum.com there are lots of t...

Rears are a problem as they are very different between any avant and the coupe. Discs would need to be swapped as well as hubs - Too much of a PITA if you ask me. Probably cheaper/easier to source the replica cup 1 wheels with the specific offset, CB for the S2. IIRC Milli Miglia are approved by Por...

I wouldn't play with the spring - Tuners will put in a stiffer spring and adjust the pre-tension on the spring but that should only be done along with a remap to account for it.

Mihnea should be visiting me soon, for a full custom remap, so you can get a proper remap and it will be local.

I'm sure Cobster got the rear brakes reconditioned and they were better?

There is an RS2 yahoo group list that you can search through as well.

There is not one return hole from the head - there are multiple return holes that go through the head - I'm not sure if they all run through the block and then through one channel - My block is in a machine shop so can't have a look for a couple of weeks. The 968 MAF might work -, like the RS2 works...
