So I bought this car last week.
1997 Audi A4 1.8t Quattro
I removed the waste gate as I am replacing all the exhaust gaskets so its all fresh.
car run ok now,but without the MAF and the IC piping its not vacuuming like it should.

I am also searching out
Factory airbox
MAF sensor

I am going to have the ecu chipped and run about 14-16 psi of boost on a mild decent tune.
Looking to make around 330hp to the wheels.

I am not sure what exhaust is on the car as of now but its also not stock.

I will keep this thread updated as I go.

Interesting. Is the manifold custom, or was the turbo flanged to fit the OEM unit? What TP and DP are you using? Do have an idea of how much power it makes now?

I removed the turbo,mani and no shaft play,no oil I am almost sure its all new parts.

I am going to jack it up and look at the exhaust as i know its not stock either.
I should have the IC hose this week and the air box.

Looking forward to getting this thing running like it should be the weekend.

Once its running as it should I will order a chip for the ecu or a good used chipped ecu from the vortex someone always wrecks a car on that forum,lol.
