3" exhaust built (+ Exhaust wrap issues!)

[Timmmy]

The only real gain from that was stopping some radiated heat to the inlet
manifold, and reuced underhood temps.

But I think youre right, probably go back to the original plan of venting
the hood.

ASs I have it I might try it over the winter as I intend to strip the audi
again in the spring and do the FMIC, cage and suspension and brakes.

Cheers

Timmy
