[s-cars] 1.8t Coil Pack Conversion Instructions, etc. Links

[James Shackelford]

Likewise, if you look at the 1.8T engine, there is no cover on the plug
boots/coils/pos's.  Audi went to the plastic engine cover to "clean up" the
engine appearance.

Aaron: If you are better at wiring than I am, then the mass of wires at the
back of the cam cover will be thinner and you could reuse the aluminum "20V
Turbo" cover after you strip out all the OE coils.  However, I do have some
concerns about heat build up under the cover and am not running the cover.
The coil packs snap on to the plugs with pit bull tenacity and trimming the
silicon rubber spacer provides for a moisture seal.  So, in my opinion, the
cover is merely "bling" and extra weight that is not needed.

Hi Dave
EXCLELLENT write up.
My question is concerning the aluminum cover.  Is there no way the stock
cover could be modified to fit over the 1.8 coils?
I suppose I could C&C a custom cover for icing on the cake..
Aaron

Steve:  Try it now.  The "undelete" didn't stick the first time. Should work
now./  Dave F.

Dave:

Can't seem to connect to the Audiworld link.  Not having used Audiworld   
before, I signed up, but still can't find that link.  Am I missing   
something?
