Mike2kS4 - is it your contention that pulling the motor without the subframe is easier/better?

Thanks for those tickets man! We ended up not staying at your house that night. Traffic was NUTS getting into San Jose on Sat. so we just decided to drive back that night. But we did take some drinks to enjoy before the game! HAHA. I appreciate you offering your place to crash....Audi content...I walked out into your garage and said hi to the APR beast!

times you have to crawl under the dang car..a couple less times is great! And 2hours is pushing it...maybe like 3hrs. Paul was helping unbolt and unhook stuff also. But I can get an engine out fairly quickly now that I've done 4 or 5 swaps.

And as many times you have to crawl under the dang car..a couple less times is great! And 2hours is pushing it...maybe like 3hrs. Paul was helping unbolt and unhook stuff also. But I can get an engine out fairly quickly now that I've done 4 or 5 swaps. __________________
