[Es2] Hmmm.. start up soon :-)

Hi guys.. 

this more than anything is a tease to myself. But I made a bunch of phone calls and I can source the aby/rs2 oil cooler for $250 here in the states so I don't have to deal with europe!  I was going to either run a 19 row mocal setup or the mercedes diesel setup but the oem is the fastest solution to start up.  Later down the road I think I will turn the aby oil cooler setup into a tranny cooler setup anyways:-). 

Most likely I am going to source a bunch of exhaust parts from Atp turbo.

They sell a 3inch cat with v-band flanges for $150.00 which is awesome becuase If it works I can make a swapable straight pipe quite easily.  

I can't weld and I am trying to do as much work in my garage as possible.  Mainly attempting to keep the coupe in the garage as much as possible has kept me to stick with oem solutions: ie oem oil cooler.  But I think it's going to work out and hopefully I will have the car running in the next two weeks.

Cheers
Josh
