I like later S cars, I prefer later 2.0t cars though, and I'm not sure how
you can say that I have no experience with the later S cars, I have plenty
thank you. I'm also glad in controlled conditions on the track, the driver of
the S4 you lend support to hasn't had a failure. It can, and does happen in
less than ideal conditions. On one occasion I was in the car when it hit and
cracked the housing, though we weren't aware of the carnage until the day
after.
Please don't prove anything to me or pizzo or Paulie et.al. In the case of
the oil filter housing, it can crack, is in a position on the engine to do
so, and under the right conditions on street cars, certainly has cracked
housings and/or bent the attaching pipe causing a leak.
I don't have to prove it, I replaced a housing twice, and know that a third
time, when it was just a bent pipe a couple years ago, at that time the
gasket was not available as a separate part number.

Ian,
Scott isn't exactly unbiased. He's never liked the B5 and Later S-
Cars, and in reality he doesn't have that much experience with them.
I will and do put my money where my mouth is. I don't see anyone on
this list or any other for that matter actually campaigning a B5 S4
like we are. And our program is setting lap records at EVERY track we
turn a wheel at.
We have NEVER had a oil filter sandwich plate have an issue like
Scott claims. Never in 5 years of our program. In-fact during the run
of our program we have never had a DNF or on-track breakage of a part
and we have a 100% dispatch record. Listening to Scott spew you'd
believe that the B5 can't make it a mile without a breakage yet we
have done close to 20K track miles with out a single failure.
When he makes mistakes about the later S-cars I will show and correct
him since I have done the research and built the cars, something he
really hasn't done. If you or him would like to prove us wrong we
will be at NASA nationals again this year at Mid Ohio Raceway. Build
something to beat us. Do the races to qualify and come and race.
Otherwise keep you r biased incorrect opinions to yourself
