Hey guys, I've got a 98 1.8T. I've had a k04 and chip for a while and wanted to get more performance. I was recommended to port and polish the intake and exhaust. We found out they used abrasive material to do it like gritty sand. So I got with my friend that tunes Hondas and we decided to try it ourselves. We got a bag of sandblasting sand and hooked up into the intake and started the car. We had to hold the gas so it would run. He wanted to let the engine suck in the sand through the intake so it would port it out and then push it out the ehxaust so it would port the exhaust manifold.
I was worried that it might cause problems but he figured it'd be OK as long as we didn't make boost and it get sucked in the turbo. After running the car and letting it suck in sand we got about half way through a 25 lb bag. The check engine light was on and the engine was bucking and kicking and sounding really weird. We stopped and hooked the car back up normal and took off the sand supply. We tried to start it again and it was really hard. Once started it couldn't idle and kept making weird noises. We took it out and drove it and it started to make scraping and knocking noises.
Help! Can anyone tell me what to do! My buddy only does Hondas so he doesn't know much about Audis.

Let me get this straight. You sucked sand directly intro your engine and thought it would help anything? Are you f***ing retarted? Why the hell you think that they put air filters on cars? I can't come up with the words.?!?!?!?!
And P.S. your friend dosen't know any thing about hondas either.

The problem is, you did it wrong. You gotta do the fuel system sand blasting treatment first. 25lbs in the gas tank, and THEN 25 lbs through the intake.......... DUH.

Better add some water to the crank case to thin some of that sand out first.

Yup, just add water until it starts overflowing out of the oil cap /fill hole, and then youll be good. Just make sure to do a seafoam application when you get a chance. Thatll get any of the leftover sand out.

If this isn't a joke that guy shouldn't reproduce. If you actually put sand into the intake what ever damage was done you deserve.
I thought it would be cool to paint the inside of my engine so I went to home depot and got a gallon of paint and put my intake in it. I had to mash the gas to the floor so the engine would run. My turbo didn't spool but i think it's broken because it's covered in paint. My engine won't start now and my exhaust has paint in it. What should I do? Also I ran out of motor oil so I filled the crank case with fudge. Is this ok? It looks the same. Can I drive the car?
