Looking good, but isn't the whole point of showing a 'before and after' showing the same thing? :lol:

Not much to see yet but look forward to the coming story.

I hope you will be showing us some nice before and after pics of porting and manifold matching.

Will you be sticking with S4 parts or going with RS4 cylinder heads and manifolds?
