    Ripped out the entire vacuum system and designed it from scratch

    Redid my turbo oil and coolant lines with good hose, and fire-wrapped them all

    Installed HTA3076 turbo

    Let's see some pictures of how you ran the hoses.
    It's not always about "racekar"...

    Yes, please show pictures and a diagram if available. Sounds like a lot of work.. how long did it take??

    It's nothing special guys - I'm not into engine bay bling. I did redo the whole fuel system in AN, but that's just because I don't want any failed fuel connections when I try to tune for 30-35PSI (75-80PSI fuel pressure!).

    For the vacuum system, I ran one large hose off the intake manifold and Tee'd it into the brake booster (check valve of course), then into the 42DD vacuum manifold. Out from the manifold I only have my boost gauge, and the FPR boost reference line - everything else in my car has been yanked. The only other lines are from the N75 to the top charge air pipe, and the line off the waste-gate. Sooooo nice to have only a couple of vacuum lines to worry about. I can't say how long it took because I'm doing about two dozen other things at once!

    I never posted a build thread here, so maybe I will when I get some time (I posted it on a local car forum).

    Dealership replaced my ignition coils for free.

    DMV rejected my registration and required correction for the ignition coil recall.

    Vw and Audi should just stop being gay and change everything to 114.3. JDM fittment is much more popular with way more wheel choices. 5x100 and 5x112 are worthless IMO
