That's because you live in the 214.

If you lived in the 817, the people are generally nicer, the summer breezes are cooler, the winters aren't as cold, and the USPS delivers.

Yes, life is much better in the 817.

And damn, those pieces are nice.

I got mine yesterday. I slept with them under my pillow. I told Rhonda the tooth fairy left them last night.
Now I just got to get the mailman to say that he'll answer to "the Tooth Fairy"
That's gonna be a real hard sell

Did you get yours yet Mr. 214?

Here's an underside shot.


Thanks Hans, got it today. Great piece, as always.

Ok. I opened one of the o-ring baggies. It’s obvious now.

But, here’s why it wasn’t obvious at first glance.

Hans, were you ever able to test fit the lower piece to see if the OEM oil filler neck fits under the stock manifold?

good question. I’m wondering the same thing. I have the lower piece from Hans and I’m in the middle of my intake removal. I’ll post some picks over the weekend.

Hans if you have info let us know

Or something.

Gonna have to glue that f$#%er to the piece with Drei Bond or whatever favorite goop you have.

I assume an OE filler neck gasket would work just as well.

Not grumbling. They are nice pieces. I’ll get to install them in a year or three. Hans’ shifter goes in this winter (rear-end/TT refresh.) Cobbler’s children have no shoes.

For those using this baffle under the oil filler next, I did some test fitting today. It will fit under the S4/GT/GTS manifold just fine. It will also fit under the hood with new Volvo motor mounts as well.





I talked with Hans today was we determined I needed to modify my filler neck a little. The plastic OEM filler neck has a plastic baffle built into the underside. It is held in by two plastic welds. The weld closest to the mounting hole will interfere with Hans' baffle and it will need to be trimmed.
