VW/Audi 07K (2.5L 20V I5) Swap Thread
#1891
I was talking with one of the guys on campus who has a Jetta with the 07k, he was saying valve springs & head studs would be a good first step to a build; are performance cams even available for this engine? Last I checked there was like, one option and that's it.

So I ordered the eBay one and it seems to fit fine. If Kappadapt isn't making them anymore you could probably work out a deal with the eBay seller. They matched the sale price of the Kappadapt one.

Not yet, it will likely be all YouTube but we may make an account on AudiZine and document it there?

Lower Sumps
Gents, Alan and I were not getting the results we wanted doing the zinc plating ourselves. After discussing with Cerakote to confirm the coating is good for internal engine components we decided to Cerakote the inside and outside of the lower sumps, which turned out great! However, it is extremely labor intensive for us and in the end we decided to outsource the coating of the lower sumps to a local zinc plating company.
With all that being said, we have 4 lower sumps that are black cerakoted (pictures below). We did 5 but I took one of them. Would any of you prefer black cerakote before we pay to have them blasted and zinc plated?
