I have the .18TM, so this may not directly relate, but I average about 250-255 with the lid on it. Sounds like you're just about right, though. Typically, anything over 270-275 and you start flirting with disaster if left that high for too long.

Good luck with that TZ man! I've heard great things about that mill!

I love this engine, Its bad ass, I have a friend with a RS4 3 with the os. 18. I torn him apart without trying.


And for traction, whats that?? I don't have it!! Need to Buy some,


You might be right about the 20degrees more, The engine is running good , As long as i see smoke from the pipe, and temps rights, (250-265 based on weather and temp of day)

then I am happy.

Might need some brembo brakes. You have any recommendations, I have the fiber brake, Is there a a dual brake setup?

You guys have any recommendations for suspensions? running blue in the front and green in the back. I just order the adjustable shocks maybe that will help.

what shock oil should I use?


Thanks for the input, It alway good to get help.

Thanks
