Well this engine was absolutely filthy. Took an air gun and some brake cleaner and hit the valley real quick, will take care of the heavy duty degreaser later on down the road... maybe paint it too? We'll see.


Reason for this post is I need some info so I can start planning some stuff out. 1st'ly the radiator. C5 RS6 radiator uses 3 coolant ports with one port coming from the coolant circulation valve. Is this possible to bypass at the aux water pump I have highlighted? Again, this build is going to have the words "simplicity" thrown around and if I can run an aftermarket 3 row radiator as opposed to the stock 2 row, I'd love it.


2nd'ly (I'm just making these up...) Who here has a pinout of the engine harness to body harness? Gonna need that for sure.... There's this guide -> [URL=http://https://www.audizine.com/forum/showthread.php/701197-Audi-C5-A6-S6-4-2-V8-40V-ECU-Pin-Outs[/URL] but is all 7.1.1 the same? Nothing on the chassis deals with boost from the BCY correct? That's about it for now I guess... Still have that damn RS6 so I will continue to wait for now lol
