Nick,
I'm sure we can help on the Audi  also just need to know the ring groove
widths and depths.
Best Regards

So, I am looking at rings for the Audi in particular because I'll need
something to do come summer, and I think doing the piston rings to clean up
the oiling problem would be nice.  I'm looking around for a good set of
rings for my Miata as well, and these guys have good reviews and seem pretty
knowledgeable, So I think gapless rings for the M-s Miata will be just the
ticket to fix the oiling problem I have.  (boost pressure pushes it past the
rings)
Anyone know the Ring groove widths and depths off hand, or otherwise?
On a completely unrelated note, anyone have experience with boosted motors
pushing oil into the intake tract and what/why exactly this happens?  I/we
have many theories, but I know this is nothing new in the FI community, as I
remember my 5ktq and 200 did it as well.
