Hi all well the time has finally arrived ( only 15 months) to get my b7 rs4 played with , since exchanging the Porka 996 I've had the cats removed,middle box removed and flaps deleted (pipeworx ormskirk dubsport guys ). Fitted a induction kit and full bilstein suspension kit n 10 mm spacers .plus front end repainted (stonechips) oh and last Saturday for some reason the screen cracked when I washed her so that's on Saturday . Just booked in at unit 20 for carbon clean , stage 2 ,and possible gutted precats .im assuming it's going to be caked in it as (wait for it )my cars done 167,000 miles she had a new im at 89,000 done at Audi and she's got full Audi service history .But I'm expecting a lot of crud although she runs sweet as a nut ,
having it done in 3 weeks time while I'm in Spain on hols. So hopefully when I get her back I will have fallen in love again as I had contemplated getting rid of my 20 v ur and the rs4 for a rs6 v10 but can't bring myself to part with the ur .Well that's my post ,1 post a year and counting . :boohoo:

Make sure you get loads of pics of the carbon. Be good to compare against the many that have been done with considerably less miles :thumb:

Hi Richie it's all good I take it u gutted the pre cats in them pipes , where did you go for your map I was contemplating mrc but went for unit 20 under recommendations and cost of traveling to Banbury twice . Only have one worry , no rolling road report to see my gain after carbon clean n stage 2 remap etc .Next after remap etc is clutch had a slightly noisy thrust bearing since owning but it's never caused any problems but bugs me at lights selecting first . Did abs sensor on Saturday wot a night mare snapped in hole and ended up taking disk off n moving drive shaft and knocking it throu .Tried to find a reg plate like yours but nothing available for right money so I've now got 000S FAT well almost the s is a 5.
