  1. PSQ, en el TTDA te viene todo, mangueras soportes...todo!!!!Menos montaje claro!! ;) Incluso el envio esta incluido..si no recuerdo mal...!!!!

     

    Piensa q el TTDA esta especialmente desarollado para el TT, y de casero tiene bien poco, ya quisieran muchos fabricantes de airboxes tener la calidad q tiene el TTDA. Date una vuelta por el Audiworld.com y lee

    las opiniones de usuarios de TTDA. No voy a decirte el curiculum de TTScwing, pero basta con q busques por este foro y encontaras muchas referencias de sus mod´s hechos en nuestros TT´s. Con esto no quiero decir q sea la "panacea" en airbox, pero q tiene muchas posibilidades de ser un producto realmente bueno y sobretodo desarollado exclusivamente para el TT.

  2. Hombre Robo!!! ya estas por aqui ??? :D Espero q todo bien!!! Aunque ya veo q si, y por lo q veo tambien traes novedades :D ehhhh!!!No me fastidies q era para ti el TTDA Ya me diras q tal va ese TTDA!!! Tengo una gran curiosidad para saber q tal va .

     

    Hace tiempo q me viene rondando por la cabeza la idea del TTDA, y aunque sabes lo q opino al respecto sobre estos sistemas, el hecho de q sea de TTSchwing me da cierta confianza en este airbox.De todas maneras, no quiero ser demasiado optimista, q luego la desilusion es mayor :D . Sobretodo sabiendo q en USA los bancos de prueba se rigen por unas normas menos restrictivas q las Europeas q es igual a mas CV y par motor.

    Como siempre espero tu opinion sobre el TTDA para sadisfacer mi curiosidad. ;):D

     

    Por cierto, tambien tengo una novedad, :D empieza por R y acaba por O y es de 4 letras :lol::lol: Me imagino q ya sabes de q va verdad??? :D Es por una antigua deuda :D

  3. Pues ya q lo mencionas, hace un par de semanas estuve preguntando a S.Schwing ( para los mas profanos, digamos q es el "maestro supremo" de las modificaciones)conocido como alias TTSchwing, sobre el filtro.....llamado TTDA..... q el fabrica y vende y q por lo visto da muy buenos resultatdos.

     

    Veo si te pongo alguna foto, aunque si haces una busqueda en Audiworld,com con la funcion "search" , seguro q habra un monton de posts con fotos. Y esto fue lo q me contesto :

    First Dyno reviews from Phill in the UK at a recent AMD "Rolling Road" day:

     

    After: Hi Steve, first I hope that you and your family and friends are safe and sound after the terrible storms .

    We had a rolling road shoot out at AMD today as you said the car is getting better and better the BHP was 272 and the torque 297lbs-ft , a lot of people were very inpressed and we had a hot day 30c , so many thanks again and might be some new orders on the way ?

    Best reguards,

    Phill

     

    Before: Hi Steve, my numbers before were 264 bhp 291 lbsft also fitted FMIC after these , but the really good part was I was run later in the day when it was hotter the early runners were not bad but the figures started dropping off as the day went on but not mine !!

    Cheers mate,

    Phill

     

    Performance Testimonial from Carlos in Puerto Rico:

    1/4 ET ---- 14.057

    1/4 MPH --- 94.56

     

    I'm sure that my car run in the 13's because when I did the run the gas tank was full(93 octane), that means too much weight, and my DV fluttering a bit. The TTDA make a huge difference. Before the TTDA I did 14.6. Thanks Steve for a great product. Yess...

     

    Late 02 TT225 Quattro Lake Silver Coupe...

    Mods for now are: APR 93Octane Chip, ECS Race N75, Hyperboost Adjustable DV, SAMCO Intake Hose and Upper Turbo Hoses, O.CT FMIC, TTSchwing TTDA, Forge Super High Flow Exhaust,

     

    Set-up for OEM 225 car :

     

    You won't be able to take full advantage of the design without having an FMIC and running feeds into the free'd up grill area, but you will see advantages in less heat soak, and a less restrictive intake. You may remove the plastic MAF vanes with this filter as it appears to supply a very clean flow of air to the MAF element. I currently have my vanes out. This will make a big difference (See the Autospeed article on Negative Boost http://www.autospeed.com/cms/article.html?&A=0629 ) The filter end will fit directly on the MAF housing. Lubricate a little as it is a tight squeeze. The filter is sized so that no other support should be necessary. It will nestle right into the OEM airbox area. Run a short hose to the fender opening from the top flange. Feed through 6-8 inches or so. Route the bottom into the area behind the headlight. This will at least get you a little fresh air in there. I use 2.5 inch neoprene hose. Expensive, but better and more flexible than most. This can be sourced in bulk at http://www.racerpartswholesale.com (10 ft lengths only) , http://www.pegasusautoracing.com (6 foot lengths), or by the foot at http://www.aircraftspruce.com (Best deal $42 for 10 feet) You'll need 6 feet for a full feed system, 3 feet for the quick install method.

     

     

    FMIC (or 180) car:

     

    This is the best set-up but requires cutting a little metal if you want to get the dual pressure feeds up to the box. If you can settle for one pressure feed, no cuts are necessary. See Pic here: http://public.fotki.com/ttschwing/cai_and_...ocut_feeds.html . Here's Ryans write-up on this: http://forums.audiworld.com/tt/msgs/963116.phtml My Fotki pics show all these pretty clearly, so I won't go into a lot of detail. http://public.fotki.com/ttschwing/cai_and_other_intak/ More feed detail in this album: http://public.fotki.com/ttschwing/cai_and_...eding_the_ttda/ One hose up the fender liner side, and one up under the headlight. You can get the hose through here with the front end on. You may have to remove the battery box depending on how dexterous you are! Both end in some sort of collector in the lower grill. Mines a home-made, but commercial inlets are available. Paolo's 180 install write-up here:

    http://forums.westcoasttt.com/messageview....0&messid=146074

     

    Note on early 2001 cars and earlier with Xenons: The Xenon ballasts on earlier cars are attached to the chassis under the lights, rather than on the actual light fixtures themselves. Because of this it may be impossible to route the headlight hose without removing the front end and headlight. The ballast needs to be relocated to allow for hose clearance.

    Additional Install Notes:

     

    Depending on how you intend to install the air box, here are some tips, links and notes to help you along:

     

    Stock 225 (easy install method):

     

    1) remove the stock box

    2) lubricate the filter flange and clamp on to the MAF. Orientation of the box should be with the seam down and the intake ports at about a 60 degree angle

    3) Hose routing can be simple but you won't get the Ram air effect. You will get better flow and heat control though. Jeff Bipes installed his this way and pics and details were posted here: http://forums.audiworld.com/tt/msgs/887991.phtml

    He used a relatively thick hose that does not look too flexible. I would highly recommend going with the high quality Neoprene as seen in my installs. Very flexible and should eliminate trimming sheet metal at the snorkle exit area.

    This stuff can be sourced at http://www.pegasusautoracing.com 2 1/2 inch part # 3620-2.50-6 foot for$34. Or http://www.aircraftspruce.com PN #05-29810 $4.10/ft. 6 feet will let you do even the more involved install later if you choose and it can be screwed together to lengthen cut pieces.

    4) Route 1 hose through the snorkle hole to get some fresh air, and tuck the other down behind the headlight.

    5) Place the black foam sock over the cold air inlet tube you removed from the airbox side and zip tie out of the way.

     

    225, 180 or VW with front feeds:

     

    1) Mount as above (180 or VW applications will have a silicone hose spacer in the filter end to match up to the 2 3/4 inch MAF)

    2) Most of the pics for this have been pretty well documented here: http://public.fotki.com/ttschwing/cai_and_...shack_3_mark_2/

    The only tricky part is cutting a little sheet metal to the left of the fender liner screw hole as seen here: http://public.fotki.com/ttschwing/cai_and_...2/dscf0145.html

    This is easily done with tin snips and then dressed up a bit with a dremel or die grinder. Cut until you can fit the hose in there without interfering with the fender liner when re-installed.

    The feed horns are simple parts available at Home Depot. The angle bracket shown holding the assembly to the car is from the garage door dept. (Track bracket). It's slotted and sized perfectly for this. There's even a threaded stud on the car to mount it too! You can also use the stock IC Bracket that used to mount there for support. Commercial air inlet ducts probably will not work here as there is VERY little room between the inlets and where the hose has to go 90 degrees to head up to the box. None will fit according to my measurements.

     

    Cleaning

     

    I've noticed that if you use front mounted feeds, a lot of stuff is sucked up into the box and the inverted part of the cone gets dirty fast. I'd clean every 3,000 miles under these circumstances.

     

    Non force fed, you're probably good for 10-15K or so. K&N's actually work a little better with some miles on them

     

    To remove filter, take the box out of the car, remove the vinyl edging from the filter side and the whole endcap with filter attached can be removed. Follow the K&N procedures fro cleaning, Lightly oil, and re-assemble.

     

    That's pretty much it! Go out and drive and let me know what you think. The car will need a little time to adapt to the different flow characteristics. The box is also quiet. You may consider removing the plastic vanes in the MAF housing also as this is a big restriction in the inlet system.

    Let me know how they work for you! Questions, I can be reached most anytime at (252) 327-7737

     

    Espero q te haya ayudado!!! :rolleyes: Por lo q a mi respecta, me gustaria comprar uno de estos filrtos , aunque sea solo para probarlo. Ahora el precio... :p

  4. Impecable ese S3 y acertadisimas esas llantas!!! ;):ph34r: Aunque no entiendo lo del 235!! No te iria mejor un 225??

    Por cierto q ammort. llevas KW??? Precioso ese kit de brembo, ¿q es el de 330?? Lo digo porque comparado con la cabeza del hombre q la tiene metida en el paso ruedas, se ven enormes!!! :lol:

    Q llevas cambiada toda la linea de salida gases?? :rolleyes:

  5. Por mi Ok!!! En el peaje de Martorell me va bien!!! Auque pensandolo mejor, y puesto q somos un buen numero, diria q mejor en la gasolinera q hay antes del peaje. Porque para tantos TT´s se podria liar una gorda. A ver q os parece.

     

    Para la hora, aun no lo se del todo seguro, deja q me lo mire. :rolleyes:;)

     

    Hay q contar con Franki tambien, pensad q el viene de Andorra!!! Creo q el lo tiene un poco mas complicado!!! A ver lo q dice! :ph34r:

  6. La cosa suena bien!!! :rolleyes: Por cierto en la foto del cambio q has puesto, hay un simbolo redondo con un zapato en su interior, q es?? Has podido probar el famoso "launch control"??

     

    Como dice Jorge, la sensacion q te da un turbo, es dificil de igualar. Aunque seguramente en altas rpm tiene q estirar lo suyo!!!

     

    A disfrutarlo !!! :ph34r::lol: Q pronto lo veremos en vivo!!! :lol:

  7. Incluso si hubiera q coger el coche, recomendaria hacer varios grupos de 5 o 6 coches "capitaneado" por alguien del lugar en cada grupo. Almenos asi la forma de desplazarse seria mas rapida y no habria tanta posibilidad de quedarse rezagado. :huh:

     

    En una columna de 30 TT´s los q van en primera posicion bien , pero los ultimos... pufff de p... culo!!! :o

     

    Con el tema "media naranja" no estaria mal q tuvieran alguna actividad. Creo q la mas preferida por ellas es : Las compras!!! Asi q soltad las Visa´s Oro, American Express y a reventarla!!! :(

    Lo q se me occure ahora mismo es llevarlas a algun Centro Comercial q este cerca y q se desmelenen!!!! Luego cuando vayamos a comer las recogemos!!!! :)

  8. Por lo q tengo entendido, a todos los lugares donde vamos a ir tendremos un sitio digamos "especial" donde aparcar. Piensa q son casi 30 TT´s, q se dice facil, pero una cola de 30 TT´s son muchos TT´s juntos. Aparte el aparcamiento de tantos coches juntos es un de los mayores obstaculos q se ha encontrado a la hora de intentar organizar algo. Por eso no sufras, q no va a pasar nada. :angry::lol:

     

    De todos modos piensatelo, aun hay tiempo para decidirte en asistir. Es una buena ocasion para q la pantalla del PC se convierta en una cara de verdad, y asi conocernos todos!!! :lol::angry:

     

    Kazerdo, tanto Robo como yo vamos a tener q cobrar a los q aparquen al lado nuestro :lol: !!!

  9. Vaya TT mas limpio!!! :angry: Ya sabes, q a los TT´eros nos gustan las fotos de otros TT´s!!! :angry:

     

    No se si he entendido bien tu pregunta, pero las tapas de las LLantas RS4, solo sirven para las llantas de RS4 o para las replica de RS4 modificando la tapa como ha hecho Tyler Durden.

    Esta tapa va encajada en la llanta. En las llantas de 16, no puedes poner la tapa, porque no hay ningun encaje para esa tapa. El modelo o formato de la llanta de 16 es asi , con los tornillos a vista.

     

    Era esta tu duda?? :angry:

     

    Esta foto es sin Photoshop, al natural...tal como es mi TT :lol::lol: con sus zapatos de 18" :lol:
