your welcome to come and look at my 5 cyl Audi conversion

H and R all the way The best by far.
Check out this photo of the last AVO set up


MY H and R set up is awesome !
Good quality ride and it realy comes into it's own when driven hard .

I was reading an advert for TSR tuning or TRS that had mentioned a "special " gearbox . Called the Freeway Flyer they claimed it had better ratios and much harder to break. Anyone aware of such a thing ? or anyone got one fitted ? Sounds like it would be just the thing for my Audi 5 pot tu...

Soudal make crap window silicone. I've used 100's of tubes fitting windows and doors. Stikaflex is the best by far. I would not trim this with a knife.

Drove the 10v 5 pot home today! Brill.
Lost a drop of oil from between belhouseing and engine.
Smooth as silk.

I suppose it needs a sesh on the rolling road (or some good advice)
I'll keep you posted on the developments as they happen !

twill be the 2.2 intercooled jobbie !
Got all the SA bit and bobs including solid gearbox mounts.
Just wanted to hear about driveabilty and mpg etc.
I'll keep updating as I get on with it.

I'm just about to start an Audi 5 pot conversion.
With SA bellhousing and 4 speed box. Plus 2.2 turbo motor.
Going into G reg. Caravelle.
If anyone has any knowledge of this type of conversion.

most likley to an aircraft motor.
They only rev to around 3000 rpm at redline.
Anything more and they require a build.
Unless in Tractor Pulling Spec !
But then they are very short lived.
