Did you do something similar to the crazy elbow piece near the coolant reservoir, too? I think it might be cast aluminum though.

Which ones did you use? 3/8" ID for the front one and 1/2" ID for the rear one?
I looked high an low for these about a year ago and ended up sticking with the rubber heater hose caps. Never...
I sent you a PM on this with my contact info for more details.
Initial flywheels I had made were a little heavier than these at 8.2kg and the consensus was that, combined with the available appropriate clutch kits, there was too much noise.
The steel units I...
Typically the axles break before the 01E.
Launching isn't all it's cracked up to be, especially with 1st gear being so short. First gear is cut on the main shaft so re-gearing is not feasible at...
I've been driving the car with the SB Stg4 on and off for the last week. There is a slight shuddder when getting moving from a stop but its manageable when engaged at a higher rpm.
Thus far I'm...
The check engine light is not on. The ABS and traction control lights are on. I passed safety and emissions in Pennsylvania without any issues.
The car has been running great. I've got 10k miles on it since the conversion.
The ECU is still being sorted. I sound like a broken record on this, but it is still ongoing.
I've been running...
It took minimal effort for this stock alcantara boot, which perfectly matches headliner, and RS4 'air leather' knob that perfectly matches the steering wheel.

Update:
The exhaust is back on and the car sounds super quiet now. I miss the NASCAR (any V8) rumble and roar already. I'm thinking of finding a shop to do some custom straight pipes the whole...
Videos are up at: http://www.kendrish.com/galleries/RS6/misc/open_exh/
Someone can post them up to a better site, as youtube and google are my enemies now, wanting to link accounts, etc.

Shim installed before the NC heat arrived this morning.
Back in business. . .
JH Motorsports shifter is on it's way to me.
I'm going to make an effort to get some video/sound clips this weekend. Especially with the exhaust still removed.
Not sure if its the aluminum...
Without this wedge in the shift linkage on the trans side, the linkage eventually works loose and your shifter becomes inoperable and can move around like an Atari 2600 joystick (w/o the button)

Not fair but sure, you can guess. I'll upload a picture soon.
Drove the RS6 from Pittsburgh to the Research Triangle area in NC on Friday.
Averaged around 26 MPG. .56 6th gear ftw.
I can't get very accurate on the fill ups b3ecause my rollover vale is...
Well folks. The RS6 is back on the road. Rowing away.
I'm taking it easy thus far and will need to sort things out, but I'm loving it.
I'm currently running it without an exhaust and just...
I've got issues that are related to the crank sensor now, so I'm very close. I'm running, but idling terrible due to cam sensor codes with the root cause being the crank sensor.
I'm back...
Like the current issue of 01E in this car isn't enough of a challenge already. . .
Without removing the rack, you could plug #32 where it meets #31. I plugged it up at the connector built into #36.
I'm not sure if having any air trapped in there would be a big issue, or having...
I'm back at it tonight for a while and have a question for the group.
With the aux radiators gone, are the IC ducts aft of the IC's needed? #15 & #16 as pictured below.

I PM'd you about this.
For what it's worth, I have my S6 transmission with TC on a 36" by 36" pallet without any fluids and it weighs 385 pounds.
I didn't think it would be near that much.
By myself, I can pick up...
I'm back at it and SAI is removed and so are the aux radiators.
It's unbelievable how much stuff there is just to add the two radiators.

Work has me tied up and I've made slow progress thus far.
I might be traveling again so there's no easy time line.
All three pedals are in and a ll the clutch plumbing is run. I've got...
