So one daymy buddy convinced me to switch cars with him for a couple of days and he would detail my car for me. Sounded good at the time since he had a denali for me to drive. The first night he had the car he wrapped it around 40 yards of trees and flipped it 5 times. What a F-ing idiot. Of course he washammered and I should have never leant it to him in the first place. Anyways, I got a newer A4with some extra cash which was nice in a lot of ways. I had many mods on the vehicle andgot to salvage some parts off of it like the K04 turbo kit from AWE-tuning, GIAC chip, etc.Im in the process of transfering onto new vehicle and have purchased everything, almost. I cant find anywhere to purchase steel-braided hoses that connect to the K04. One was connected to the wastegate, another on the side of the turbo. Can anyone PLEASE help and tell me where I buy these or any recommendations. Oh yeah, here are the nasty pics of my last car and the only pic I have so far of my new car. R.I.P.

Damn that sucks, some friend. I like the last pic of your new car... Can we get a close up shot of her?
Have you tried www.ecstuning.com for the hoses?

 

I guess you could say I got more than just the car from him. HA!

 

is your friend ok?

 

Nice did she come with the new car. also too bad about your friend is he still your friend. the worst thing my buddy did was spill general tsao chicken in the backseat or my other buddys car, from that day on my parents always tell me not to let him eat in my car.

 

Yeah, heck, the car looks f-ed, how's your "friend"?
Hopefully they are better off than your old car.

 

Which tree was the blond wrapped around? Don't have forests like that in NJ.

 

yah the kid was alright somehow but he was hurtin when he sobered up. Checked the link out and didnt help, anyone know a good place to find steel-braided hoses toconnect a K04 to the engine (particularly the wastegate connection)???

 

The wastegate connection is a rubber vacuum line. The stock one is just the rubber line with a cloth-like exterior.
