Can we please see more on your built 2.0t with the custom pcv and other tricks! Even just an update. Thinking about freshening up my 2011 2.0t that still has the stage 1 piston rings. Want to go forged pistons n rods with the largest wrist pin size. Believe its 22mm but could be wrong. Weird thing my car has 220000kms and tuned to push 15psi and it doesnt burn a drop of oil. Had the audi test at 160 000kms. Engine still pulls and runs great. Do my own oil n services like clock work. Every 10k oil gets changed, thinking of starting to change it at 5000kms to see how dark its gotten Great videos, even the short stuff. Keep at it. Cheers from Canada. The 2.0t doesnt get the love it deserves, i think its damn decent once you fix a few quirks like any vehicle plus audi has one of the best interiors

I stripped it out on my son’s CC. Ended up using a chisel to catch the edge of the bolt and knock it loose.

When replacing turbo do you recommended oem always or have you tried the eBay/Amazon ones that are 300-500 vs 1000-1200.

I can speak for removing that bolt with a Pittsburg ball Allen. I ended up grinding that bolt off after trying a Pittsburg straight Allen as well and finally stripping it out.

36.25$ for the long snap on, I only use the flat one . stopped using the ball end because like you said 50/50 lol maybe the oil leaks are keeping the bolts nice and rust free

Used the HF ball ended and it broke off while taking off my B7 turbo. Was freaking out since the ball ended up kinda stuck in the bolt but it was floating. Think it's better to hit it with PB blaster first. Brought it back to the store and they replaced the set.

In my opinion penetrating oil just makes the tool slip, inside the torx hex. it doesn’t actually get into the threads.

@@deejay4837 in general heat can burn out corrosion and rust that seizes bolts, heat can also suck in penetrating fluid sometimes, I’ll get a nut hot then spray cold lube of some type on it, it might suck in.. if it’s a bolt type situation it’s extremely difficult if not impossible for the fluid to get into the threads. Breaking it loose is often the hardest part then you can go back and forth multiple times in the same 1/4 or 1/8 turn while spraying to try to work fluid in. Like cutting threads with a tap, or if you’ve ever spun a tight bolt out and it was hot from friction, it helps to go back and forth after snapping it loose if it’s still tight. You’re pretty much without any help other that experience to get the bolt to snap loose in the first place without breaking the tool, or stripping the fastener. I’m sure some people will tell me I’m wrong but usually you can feel when it’s stuck and I usually try to palm hammer or spring load tap the bolt rather than constant pressure.

@@NaptownTuner Great to hear and learn your insight on this. Always kinda questioned the effectiveness of penetrating oils. I did end up using the square ended after the ball broke and it did the trick. My b8.5 may need a chain done soon, maybe summer. I'll be contacting you vial email. I'm in IL Keep up the great vids J, I always learn something. Good seeing your channel grow. Peace!

The extended 6mm long hex 3/8 drive snap on part FAML6E is $36.25 you’re right wow an entire ICON set is what a single snap on socket.. those ICON tools are freaking awesome.. HF did their homework and they are as good as any tool truck brand

I know this isn’t relevant to the video but what is your opinion on the EA888 in the golf R and S3? I’ve had three mk5 GTI’s at all different power stages. 1-3 ko4, and I am wanting to get an S3. I’m used to the unreliability of the BPY engines and working on them. Just hoping a 2015 S3 will be a little bit better.

I work for the big 3 n honda and some other big names and Audi n Toyota are the only companys we are too dumb to make parts for. And we are the best at what we do and make, as no other company is like us. Yet audi and toyota techs wont mess with us. Says something to me and i own multiple vehicles from 34 ford coupe to mazda to audi and audi does it better. Well not better then a 34 but thats obvious lol
