would i need to replace the whole hub to replace my wheel bearings? how tough of a job is this?

 

no you dont have to replace the hub, you do need a press though, do what i did with my rear wheel bearing, i just took off the upright and took it to a shop with a press and had it pressed for $20 alot better than the $175 i paid for someone to do it.

 

i wanted to up my boost to around 9 or 10psi with my stock turbo.... i was thinking about just getting a manual boost controller... would that **** everything up?

 

would most likely throw a CEL at you. I could be wrong, but I doubt it. and depending onwhat you boost it too, you might be running a little leaner than you want to be. which is not good. don't want detonation in those cylinders! thats a BIG EXPENSIVE boo boo.

 

for my 02 b6 i replaced the rear left and the bearing comes as a whole piece with the hub from audi..

 

bet that was cheap

 

it wasnt too bad i paid like 130 or something like that for the hub..my friend works fora tech ataudi so he gets it cheaper..and i put in myself..that was a bitc#...but thats another story

 

I jsut did my front driver monday, 80 from ECS tuning OEM replacment and had family mechanic do it for me 80 part 80 labor all gravy. i was getting scared going over 80 as soon as i got on the highway to come home i was blazing 110 was nice feeling to go fast again.
