Did anyone find out the difference between the front and rear calipers?

A couple days ago.

I bought some hoses for my B5 S4 through Audi-Tradition via WOTmotorsport. May be worth contacting them and seeing if they will help, they were really good for me.

They do, it's an EMU black ecu and harness adaptor. Should be able to get anyone worth their salt or half familiar with these ECUs to map them :) https://badger5.co.uk/ecus/aeb-ajl-agu-plug-and-play-loom-classic https://badger5.co.uk/ecus/ecumaster-emu-classic-ecu

The 1.8t is a simpler engine and doesn't seem to suffer with the inherent issues that the 2.0 tfsi has with cam followers and carbon build up. They can be a little sluggish in standard trim, but a simple remap wakes them up and their are a plethora of upgrades you can make if you're that way...

There's a thread on the VWVortex forum where if you ask nicely and give the info on your setup, goals and potential turbo options the chap will give a breakdown of how each turbo would expect to perform and the best option for your goals. Guess you're looking at genuine GEN2 Garrett stuff and...

Sorry, just seen your response, i'll have a look into it for you :)

Have a 25mm rear Eibach ARB hanging up in the garage if you need one?

That's fired and galled up a lot! Clean it up and bung it in the freezer, might help. But looks like it's a bit tight! Could get the dog bone reamed out if you really want to use it?
