Newbie from CT!
Hey everyone, I'm new to the forum. I've had my 2001 S4 for almost 5 years now. Just hit 85k miles and I'm in the process of replacing the blown turbos now. I got the whole front end of the car taken apart now and luckily I am able to use my buddy's shop to do the work. I decided to go with the K04s, APR Intercoolers, and APR downpipes. I'm sending my ECU back to APR to have it flashed for the upgrades. I'm hoping it makes a huge difference!
Here's a couple of pics..

New from Ct too. Have an A4 and putting a Borla cat-back on it tonight/tomorrow. 'Bout time it stopped raining, but those 3 bolts at the back of the cat are hard to reach. I took out the front exhaust heat sheilds to make room, but ever do this before w/o taking everything out?

Bogie, I've never done any work on this car before, it's my first time, so I have no clue about the bolt.
SchlafwagenS4, I got about 6 grand, this time around, hoping it will be sick. At that point, I only had about 6 hours into the car, but that was before doing the turbo swap, timing belt service, and some misc other maintenance items. Probably at 10 hours now, and now it's time to put it back in. I'll post some more pics when I start putting it back together.
Oh, and I am not sure the brand of the DVs, I got them from a local speed shop.
