infernosg's S5 N/A Build

[infernosg]

Got the steering de-power done:



I still need to find and mark "center" for reinstalling. I've counted lock-to-lock on the pinion shaft and I'm coming up somewhere between 2.5 and 3, which is weird because I'm 90% certain I had the electronically controlled (vehicle speed sensing) power steering, which is supposed to be like 3+ turns lock-to-lock. Is the inner tie rod supposed to be able to slip through the rack "plug" (the thing with the lock wire) on the passenger side? Mine doesn't.

I also picked up another set of TII side skirts in MUCH better condition than my previous ones. These still have 90% of the original clips so it'll make installing them that much easier.



I'm also in the process of selling my current 16x8 RPF1's. The new setup will be 17x9.
