All done!
Hasn't been problem free though
The US rear bumper are they larger than the Euro spec one (I know the fronts are)? I couldn't hide the rear box
Also I need to sort out a better bracket for the front/cat section and the rear box section.
Dispite this I am well chuffed
Car battery is on trickle charge now
Not bad considering I haven't got a garage or a decent lift |

I think you could be right on the USA (Useless of A) rear bumpers.
Don't they have those fugly extended low impact things?
Nice job Mark |

I think I have fooked up big time.....
'I thought' it would just be enough with the rear silencer box - but clearly it isn't.
I really need another mid silencer box
Fook knows how I'm going to fit this??
I'll take a chat with 034 tomorrow and see if I can substitute one of the pipes for one with a box in.....
Other than that take it to someone over here to sort out
*censored*
If I was a spotty 17year old then fine, keep it the way it is.
But hell talk about hearing the 5 pot burble |

I was looking at having a 1 box 3 inch system on mine. Hoping to wake up the sound of the engine. |

I had a single box 3" S/Steel exhaust on the previous S2 and that sounded great, nice 5cyl burble. You could hear me coming though.....ask Jase |

To tell you the truth I don't know.
I really need to do a few drive pasts while the wife holds the camera.
Don't know what I've done now, must've messed something up refitting it all, seems like it's down on power as well
Have already checked all hoses.
Out with VAG Com.....
Decent garage near me called Trollspeed (Near Trollhättan, going to give them a ring tomorrow as well).
VAG Com threw up no surprises

65535 - Internal Control Module Memory Error
00-00 - -

Not good, might be good to reset the ecu/take the battery lead off for a bit then take it for a long drive and see what happens. |

Some progress....
Been on the phone to Trollspeed
http://www.trollspeed.se/default.aspx
Cars going up there next week for them to have a look at and get a quote, then back again next month for the work to be done (it's still holiday time over here, whole country near enough shuts down for 10 weeks )
They're certain they can fix everything (hangers, brackets, shorten the rear box pipe so it hides behind the rear bumper), cut away a section of pipe away and fit an extra sound box in.
They also have a 4wd rolling road
Happy days are on the horizon |

Now starting on the seats.
Ordered all the gear from the Furniture Clinic (minus the cans of compressed air, added some leather filler, cheers Gav, Si)
Been advised to change over the front seats first before I dye them.
Backs are easy.
However on the back of the rear seat its beige carpet type material - this must be black.
The leather dye won't work, so I've seen this:
Ebay item number 250475831320
Upholstery Fabric spray paint - would this be ok to use?
even better seen some of this:
Item number 200365762045
(doesn't require heat setting)
Cheers

Back!!
Cleaned up the leather and took it right back, just filled in all the cracks.
Going to sand it down and apply the first few coats of dye tomorrow
Gav, Si - your right it's all in the prep work, should be a nice finish after the dyes on |
