You'll need to bend the RF tie rod to clear the wastegate, cut out the
battery tray and move it to the turnk, and mess with the airbox if you intend
to run the turbo fuel system.  Many people lately have been using the 4kq
fuel/ignition system with good results using the stock 5kt boost levels.  If
you intend to "chip" the car or run non premium fuel I'd recommend either
going with the 5kt fuel/ignition system (which is knock sensing while the 4kq
is not) or going with efi.. see http://www.034efi.com.

I have a few details of what I did at http://www.mswanson.com/audi.  lots of
broken images.. I know....
