This is a tuner car that I have been having fun with since about 2005.   Over the years I consistently searched out and purchased quality parts and components and had most of them professionally installed by 034 Motorsports, or Kovacs Motors (San Rafael, CA).   Used as a back up commuter car for most of its life.  Never tracked unfortunately, but pretty much ready for some 1/4 mile blasts or a nice day any any good road course.   It has a significant amount of tasteful modifications and might just be what you are looking for.  Wife says I have to sell this and one of my bikes, see my other auctions if you like turbo motorcycles.

This vehicle is a "big turbo car".  If you have never driven a "big turbo car" it is good to know that they ultimately sacrifice low end torque for top end horsepower.   This car is no exception.   It does have to spool the turbo, but at 22PSI on California 91 Octane pump gas, everything over 4500 RPM is exciting.  Freeway onramps are very fun...


Performance Enhancements:

ENGINE:

  • Milltek exhaust
  • ATP GTRS turbo Upgrade (350HP capable turbo)
  • 034 Motorsport Big Intake pipe
  • EVO MS FMIC (Front Mount Intercooler)
  • Audi 2.7T Throttle Body Upgrade
  • Dual Cone spray 550CC fuel injectors
  • 034 MS custom tune 91 Octane (Tuned on 4 wheel drive Dyno)
  • 034 MS custom tune 100 Octane  (Tuned on 4 wheel drive Dyno)
  • HKS EVC IV Digital Boost Controller
  • Fresh Ingition Coils
  • "Green" brand Cotton Air Filter (IMHO, better than K&N)
  • ECS Underdrive Pulleys
  • 034 MS high flow  cat
  • Forge Diverter Valve
  • New South Performance Phenolic Intake Gasket (Intake Heat Reducer)


DRIVETRAIN:

  • Sachs Stage 3 clutch and lightened flywheel
  • Synthetic fluids in drivetrain
  • Urethane Snub Mount


SUSPENSION:

  • Eibach sports springs
  • Eibach Sway bars front and back


INSTRUMENTATION:
  • APR Air vent boost gauge
  • Wideband 02 sensor Installed
  • EGT sensor installed


Updated parts:

  • Alternator relatively fresh
  • Rear view  Mirror is new - non auto dimming
  • Sunroof Switch
  • Front Door Speakers 
  • Brakes Master Cylinder
  • Stereo Head Unit (OEM) 
  • Fresh Interstate Battery 
  • Fresh Oil and filter


Other Upgrades:

  • Tinted Windows - $250
  • 17" Audi Factory Rims w/ Continental DW Summer Tires - installed on vehicle now
  • 15" Audi Factory Rims w/ Toyo M&S tires (will be in rear of car)


Service:

  • 95K Timing belt change
  • Always synthetic oil.  Mostly Royal Purple, but some Mobile 1 and others.
  • Always oversized Oil Filter
  • Brake Fluid Swapped 20K ago


The Good:

This car is very clean with lots of professionally installed upgrades.   Given that it is running a remapped Stock ECU, any problem that might occur would  easily diagnosed as if the vehicle was stock.    It is very clean cosmetically and only has some small areas where wear and tear were inevitable.    The car dynoed on California pump gas at 265 AWDHP which is well over 300HP at the crank.     There are Wideband 02 and EGT sensors installed.   Adjustable digital boost controller in glovebox.  Tinted windows.   Full on sleeper.   


The Not So Good:

  • Some small (filled) chips on the front of the hood.
  • One small depression over the rear driver side door (See Pics)
  • Drivers seat has tear in seam of seat cover.  
  • Shift knob is only about half covered with leather. 
  • 1 17" rim has some minor curb rash (see pics)
  • Dash LED readout mostly failed
  • AC condenser had pinhole hole patched.   Repair done 3+ years ago and stable. 


The Bad:  (NOTE: CALIFORNIA BUYERS PAY ATTENTION)

In April of 2013 I took the car to get smogged in my home region of Northern California.    Given the extensive mods the car was flagged as a "gross polluter" given that it did not have the "secondary air pump" installed.   This is true.   Smog laws and testing are getting more strict in CA and they finally caught up with this vehicle.   I have all the required parts and can ship with the car.   I can not guarantee that this  car can be easily somgged in CA given that it officially failed a visual smog inspection.   It never had problems passing any of the sniff tests,  but with missing parts, it did not pass the visual inspection.


Extra Parts:

  • The sale comes with and EXTRA SET of factory rims and Mud and Snow tires for heading to the mountains.   
  • Brand new REAR brake pads and rotors (Blauparts A4 "U Slotted" kit - (Blauparts product id =D2B1520-01-A) - These should be installed in the next 5-10K miles. - $140
  • Additional unused refurbished OEM CD player head unit.

Audi designs science fiction car for Ender's Game movie [w/video]

Wed, 07 Aug 2013

Audi is no stranger to product placement in movies, but the upcoming sci-fi adventure movie, Ender's Game, will be the first time the German automaker has ever unveiled a "purely virtual" vehicle design in a movie. As the movie's star car, the futuristic Audi fleet shuttle quattro was created by Audi Design as a "vision for the future world."
This new movie car comes almost 10 years after one of our favorite Audi movie cars ever, the Audi RSQ that was prominently used in the 2004 sci-fi action film, I, Robot. Looking back, the RSQ obviously used cues from the Audi R8, but it's unclear if the fleet shuttle quattro has any design implications for future Audi production models.
The movie, based on the best-selling novel of the same name, stars Harrison Ford and Asa Butterfield, and it premiers in the US on November 1. Audi has provided images of the fleet shuttle quattro, and Summit Entertainment has released its latest trailer for the movie, which is posted below along with an Audi press release.

Audi to abandon CVTs?

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

The continuously variable transmission is one of those technologies that seems to make a lot of sense on paper, but in reality, almost always numbs the driving experience. That's one reason why Audi, according to reports, is planning to phase them out.
One of the first automakers to implement use of the CVT, Audi mates CVTs to larger engines than many other manufacturers, which typically install them on scooters, hybrids and small-displacement hatchbacks. But the time of the Audi CVT (which it calls Multimatic) may be near its end as a report from Australia indicates that Ingolstadt is moving toward a two-gearbox lineup that does not include the rubber-band transmission.
Instead, Audi is said to be focusing its attention on the S-tronic dual-clutch transmission and on conventional torque-converter automatics - although the development of beefier DCTs could spell the end of the Audi slushbox, as well. We've reached out to Audi for comment, so watch this space for confirmation.
