Well boys the car is going in next wednesday for some work finally that my parts are here.

-Fuel filter
-Panzer skid plate
-VDO Boost gauge

Anyone else here have a dieselgeek skid plate? Is it a pretty straight forward install?

Up in Igloo Country we have snow for 6 months of the year and I happened to rip mine off last year so figured why not replace it with something a little more heavy duty. I love winter driving and theres no way better to go 4X4'ing then in an Audi haha

The boost gauge should be a relatively simple install as theres quite a few writeups, i'm just a tad worried about that buzzzzzzzzz but I guess we'll have to see.

TIB & TBB are next just not sure if i can justify spending almost double for a "Forge" or "Apr" stamp on it...then GIAC-X in the spring!

 

is 4x4ing that fun? this is my first 4x4 car so i wouldn't kno yet. but if it's as fun as people have been saying then im gonna have some fun this winter hehehehehe

 

Fucken eh' but i was just joking about taking it off roading haha. I just love spirited winter driving!

Thanks onepoint8tee for your help with ordering the gauge btw

 

dont worry about the buzz. i have had my boost guage for a year ish and i never had buzz to speak of.

 

cool, good to hear

Now, do most people block off their air duct behind the gauge? A guy at work said the constant blowing on the back of the gauge will **** it up?

Thanks.

 

let us kno how the plate install goes and how u like it.

damn snow guys bragging.....best we get in sd is rain

 

do they make a skid plate for the b6 models the 3.0 or will a 1.8t work if tahts even made

 

bump on the "blocking off air duct" ??????? someone?

 

I don't have mine blocked off and have never had a problem. Not sure why it would mess it up either.

Fucken eh'.
