uh yea, but that shouldnt happen to a silicon hose that is only a month old, when im only running stock psi, probably a little less than stock.

im with blue in this one I have 77,000 on my car and it has not blown a TBB. For it to go outafter a month isnt a good thing at all, but why dont you just go with the ARP bipipe and never have any problems again???

because i needed a part right away since this is my only vehicle. just so happened that PepBoys had one laying around that i picked up. the bi-pipe will definately come when i finally tune and get proper fueling for it.

all sounds like what I want to do, excpt the flywheel dont like lightweight ones on awd cars. One thing how much power can those RS4 clutches hold? I have been looking around for a good clutch and people say they are good but the ydont give me a round about power they can hold

uhh the rs4 comes stock with 390 HP people say like 430 HP is reasonably safe. When i go k04's i will probably think about getting a new clutch. I just went out on a limb with the flywheel never driven an awd car with one. Hope i like it! the mechanic who is doing the work has a great reputation with b5's and he said definitly.
