shizzle..new motor on the way
 
well boys...i just dropped my A6 off at the machine shop to get built. the only down side is that they are so backed up it will take about 3 weeks. but i dont care caused that gives me more time to get money. this bad boy will be in and broken by the 4th of july and the turbo kit goes on before july 31st cause theres a car show i wanna bring it to. but as soon as everything is done ill get pics and ---- for ya to drool over!!

and you didnt have it sleeved? your motor should handle 18psi, but you shouldve gotten it sleeved. BTW, 18psi, what are you gonna use for traction control? im not 'dis'in the set-up, just courious.
