Audi A4 Precision 5857 Turbo Build: all 28 photos

    So there I was, running a GT71R with terrible IAT issues. So what did I do? Pull my engine and do a PTE 5857 build. It was the only logical choice that I had.

    I'm bored at work, so I figured that I would start my build thread.

    I have some really crappy pics that I took with my crappy cell phone (I know, double fail) and so I only have terrible pics to show you as of now. I'll take better ones later.

    As far as the build goes, I want to keep it pretty basic.

    -Engine
    - IE rods w/ stock pistons new rings and rod bearings
    - A refreshing hone for the block
    - Port and polish AMB head
    - AEB intake mani
    - Exhaust valves
    - Supertech valve springs w/ titanium retainers
    - Stock cams (as of right now)

    -Tuning/Fueling
    - Probably Unitronic or Maestro... I want to run 1000cc injectors, so whoever can give me tuning for it
    - 005 intank pump
    - stock fuel lines w/ "returnless" system

    -Cooling
    - Treadstone TR10 w/ custom 2.5" piping
    - Possibly W/M

    -Turbo Stuff
    - PTE HP5857SP (running like, 1 million PSI)
    - Hoping the Treadstone manifold will fit, otherwise idk
    - Tial wastegate
    - Hallman MBC

    -Exhaust
    - Custom 3" downpipe w/ wastegate routed into it
    - downpipe -> 24" cherry bomb 3" in/out to 2.5" Y to 2.5" out the back

    I'm sure that I'm forgetting something....

    OH YEAH!!!

    -Clutch
    - Something big and ugly from CM. I'll need to talk to Greg@DTH. I was thinking something like the FX850

    Block is honed.

    Got the bumper cover to fit tonight. with the help of my irreplaceable buddy glen lol.

    Had to take a little bit out of the bumper cover. (i dont want to hear it Doug lol)
