S5 vert 83K TII project

Recent updates:

Driving the car revealed a hesitation going into boost so I have been driving it gingerly. Last night we decided to check the timing to find that the leading coil wasn't firing! This was a big suprise as the car drives and idles well (except for boost). I will be trying another coil tonight and hopefully that will fix the hesitation. The wiring looks good and I was getting voltage to the coil itself.

Parts recently added:

750cc RC injectors
Rtek 1.7

**The rtek ordering process went very smoothly and only cost me $165 including shipping to send it to them and get it back. Its reassuring not to have to worry about using a FCD anymore, having the timing retard after 9psi, and other cool things the rtek does for reliability.
