    It's Alive

    Took this from my brothers fourm since he's been driving it and I've only put maybe 20 miles on so far:

    After the oil change and filter (took 6 qts btw), old 500 mile oil looked clean, and had no large metal shavings...which is good ...checked the level a few times, looked for leaks...all good...

    Took her out for a quick spin, let her get warmed up...slowly revved to 6000 a few times, makes about 75 psi oil pressure at 6k, which is correct. Stopped and rechecked oil level...and we are off.

    From a 20 mph roll I gave her WOT. She kicked to first and lit, I mean abso-****ing-lutely lit up 1st gear with that harmonious sound, as if angels where armed with tubas roared up to the 6200 mark. (This is a A4...) Shifted into 2nd, walked sideways, really it sounds like a NASCAR at topend, went under an underpass - 'bout went deaf. Hit 3rd we are now at 90+, my roommate was with me - he made this comment - the MPH needle f'ing flys! Took it to middle of 3rd (115ish) and let off. 3rd takes you to about 140, crazy gearing...back home, idle cool down, rechecked oil - perfect, we have a winner.

    I am getting it tuned this friday and I'll post up the results. You'll all see it at the meet and greet this sat anyways since i live in lansing.

      Sweet, should have cammed it while you were doing the swap, then it'd be really fun to drive

                Yeah I am definitly looking forward to making up some valuable crusin time that I missed out on for the past month... I am going to take some pics and video with a buddies camera whenever he gets back to state.
                My biggest worry is staying out of trouble... its just so tempting
                See you guys at the meet and greet.
