Actually... Merlin's track car is A7 based?
Whereas bennyboy is A8 based, was my thinking... A lot of the others are just A's with minor mods (A8 cams etc.)?
Then I run out of ludes that are running modified engines (running being the important words - the several builds in progress don't count, obviously because they have no bhp or tuning figures yet!!!)
(There are probably several more and I've just missed them because my memory is jobby!) :D
Naths is a7 of the 5th gen, think thats what he was hinting at wurly :lol:
;-) :lol: Cheers Newkid. Bit slow our Iain is sometimes :roll: :lol:

Matt's (stk's) lude is an a7 as well. That's pushing 236.2 Bhp and 170.6 lb of torque.

A7 Intake?
Do you have installed knock sensor and what ECU do you use?

Is there some tips and tricks when installing A7 intake on A5 head or it's just bolt on?

I think you can get away without grinding bits off the IM flange by using a Hondata IM gasket as it spaces it out enough.
