[QUOTE=eliteboi;659331]We are getting together on the 15th to put together a building sheet.
Hardey actually recommended Autotech, I don't want my clutch to be heavy in traffic. So I don't know if that will be an issue.
I suggest Autotech's 228mm 10LB. steel billet flywheel w/ring gear for the 1.8t and ACT's #VR1-HDSS clutch kit.
I was already planning on going with Tyrol (sp?) SMIC, I really don't want to loose my fogs, but then again i'm taking suggestions from what I gather, and going with that.
You should choose what you like, however, a K04 or larger needs much more cooling recovery abilities than that upgraded SMIC can offer, especially if you are a spirited driver, otherwise heatsoak and power loss is inevitable, an FMIC is the way to go.
With an FMIC you just need to be creative in order to retain fog lights, picture of my car attached.
I know the APH can be a PITA. Unitronic gives you two options when you "flash" your car. Which I have already done. One is high octane tune, or $50 flash to KO4. If not i'll just have him get a program for my car custom done? I'm sure it'll require the bigger injectors (probably tt size) we shall see. I don't wanna get too far into the tranny just yet but a new clutch and short throw are going in with the new turbo.
Contrary to what some believe, the "APH" is not a pain, as with anything just do your research and do not cut corners.
You will not be able to use larger in jectors unless the software is designed to support them.
Good luck on your project...
