Figured now would be a good time to introduce myself and make my own thread.

My name is Kyle and I drive an Ocean Blue Pearl 2.0t 6MT Avant:

I purchased this car a little over two years ago as my first car. I was so excited. Cleaned it up inside and out and started the mods. First being clear corners:

Every car needs tints:

Not good for boost, so Rev D. was put in. Decidedto check the cam follower everybody talks about soooooo much:

Well, shit. Buttoned her up, and brought it to my local Audi dealer where they replaced the hpfp, cam, associated seals etc.

So I got tired of the APR catback with OEM cat because drone. So, called the boys over at JHM who hooked me up with the first(oustide JHM) DP-Y and testpipe. Paired that to a B6 s4 catback and we were in business:

Konis, 034 upper control arms, and FCP everything else to provide low life:

So that’s basically the story of where I am today.

034 RSB
Symph 2+ headunit with Aux port
JHM boost gauge
JHM Stage1 tune
JHM FMIC
JHM knob +trio package
Fly300kts headlights
Debadged rear
RAI CC(eww)

Things I intend to do:
S4 brake conversion
RS4 hatch spoiler
Stage 2 tune
Interior swap w/ black

People I’d like to thank:
Dru @JHM
The rest of the boys over at JHM

I plan to keep this updated with whatever little crap I do to the car and I’m always looking for advice or tips from everybody here :smiley:

Nice intro thread. Strong mod list.

Welcome to Audirevolution. Stunning car. Very impressive work. Love the pictures. Looking forward to reading more updates.

#4

Have you raced any other 2.0T A4 guys?

#5

Can’t say I have. I would like to get out to the strip at some point but I’m still on the stock clutch (with 100k at that).

Nice to see you post a build thread, the car looks great, and like I had mentioned previously, much less phallic than Dru’s avant.

Any plans to hit the drag strip?

Sounds like next summer I may go to the strip.
