thanks guys for the feed back

 

so yesterday i started taking the car apart and i ran in to a major problem
when i got the car i new the wire harness was shot but i never actualy too a look
at it like the rear harness was horible and yesterday i was looking at the engine harness and that **** was worse so i figured that the best thing to do was to get a
new harness what do you guys think i will take pics and show you how bad it is of todays progress and for yesterdays here are the pics

ROFL. no, no you wont.


are you saying you have a stack on the front bumper, plumbed to the stock airbox with a drop in filter? and you think it's doing something? gimme a break.

so what are you trying to say Mr wrekz

 

im saying.... you wasted your time with that "mod". pick up a book on fluid dynamics.

 

well not realy it was a whole 5 bucks so yeah i dont realy care

 

sorry about him being a dick as usual

he has a point but no need to ridicule you over it. the only thing it might be doing is getting colder air to your STOCK air filter. really no point in that... get a name brand proven intake for daily driving, then swap the filter out with that velocity stack when your at the dyno. otherwise, leave it on a shelf that is too high for you to reach it. otherwise, with the stock engine and ESPECIALLY the stock air filter/box... your just giving people a reason to make fun of you

 

thats going to be a bit hard for i am 6'8 so i can rech any thing buddy
and yeah at the moment its a stock filter but when i am done with the rebuild of the a6 and i have some cash i am buying my K&N so yeah
