Default Update and Smoking Car Solution

I have finally figured out the smoking problem after cold start with Shadow. The custom PCV setup the shop put on had clogged inside the air seperator I was using as a catch can. I pulled the catch can and could not blow through it at all. This caused the PCV vapors to go... somewhere and were being burned during startup. I looped the PCV to operate with no catch can until I can figure out a better solution. This is good as I do not have to buy a turbo, but bad as I paid someone to replace my valve cover gasket which I could have done myself....

Also, had the shop remove some material from the rear perch to lower the rear end another 1/4 inch. Cleaned up under the hood and ordered some new toys.
Ordered:
-Cupra R front lip
-Mintex Red Pads
-Slotted front and rear rotors
-Stainless lines


Currently looking for some wheels. Anyone have pictures of a TT on Stern ST1 ? Also, should I get the silver Sterns or some RS4 replicas in hyper silver

Pictures or input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks all!
