Hey guys, please help with my mods gone wrong.....
ORIGINAL: Powrd1.8T
Hey guys, I've got a 98 1.8T. I've had a k04 and chip for a while and wanted to get more performance. I was recommended to port and polish the intake and exhaust. We found out they used abrasive material to do it like gritty sand. So I got with my friend that tunes Hondas and we decided to try it ourselves. We got a bag of sandblasting sand and hooked up into the intake and started the car. We had to hold the gas so it would run. He wanted to let the engine suck in the sand through the intake so it would port it out and then push it out the ehxaust so it would port the exhaust manifold.
I was worried that it might cause problems but he figured it'd be OK as long as we didn't make boost and it get sucked in the turbo. After running the car and letting it suck in sand we got about half way through a 25 lb bag. The check engine light was on and the engine was bucking and kicking and sounding really weird. We stopped and hooked the car back up normal and took off the sand supply. We tried to start it again and it was really hard. Once started it couldn't idle and kept making weird noises. We took it out and drove it and it started to make scraping and knocking noises.
Help! Can anyone tell me what to do! My buddy only does Hondas so he doesn't know much about Audis.

ARE YOU KIDDING? this has to be a joke. someone is taking you for a ride here. best troll post ever though. this is like the guy with the M3 that sucked a sock into his engine through the oil cap!
I suddenly feel...so inclined....to....go to Miami Beach, drive on the sand, and PULL UP TO EVERY SAND CASTLE I SEE, revving my engine to it's LIMITS...Hopefully my car will become a beast, ANNIHILATING every other vehicle man has ever created!!!
Ah, what the heck, everyone else is posting about this moron...i doubt this kid even owns a vehicle now, or now realizes literally that he bet his Audizzle over ad Dry F*&%ed it for about 25lbs or so...Kudos to the enineering youth of America, at this rate the Int.-Comb. engine will be phased out, and the 19 year old Honda Execs. will make Cars that drive on RETARDED F*%!n POSTS AND SAND, yay, I can't wait.
Tell ya what man...go kick yourself in the nuts, get rid of the sandblasted piece of **** car that you completely RUINED, and go get yourself a f***ing Yaris and do not EVER open up the hood of that car cuz you might hurt yourself.
