and where is the car?

Why are you selling?

When was the timing belt changed?

 

The car is located in Austin, Texas.....which is where I live.

I am selling it because I am filing bankruptcy and have to liquidate all my non-exempts assets. Trust me, I do not want to part with my "baby."

The timing belt was changed at 75k miles when we put on the new big valve heads, Schrick camshafts, etc..

My phone # is 512-743-7517. Feel free to call me if you want to discuss or ask more questions. Take care.

Way too long of a drive.. Im in California.

Let me guess, the timing belt broke so you decided to upgrade? (doesnt make any difference, because you repaired it correctly.. lol) Or was it just you wanting a bit more power and you went with cams and some porting...

How much more Hp and TQ does it have? or do you not know? Was it worth the money?

Actually, I had judiciously planned the engine upgrade. Purchased the entire TDL racing engine upgrade....ported intake manifold, ported / ceramic coated exhaust manifolds, big valve heads, schrick camshafts, etc.

Don't have Dyno numbers, but it is definitely faster from 4k RPM on up.

Would I do it again? No. Had I known better at the time, I would have traded up to a 98.5 or newer A4 2.8 and had it supercharged.....same $ for a lot more horsepower.
