Topic: Hey guys, please help with my mods gone wrong.....


Hey guys, I've got a 98 1.8T. I've had a k04 and chip for a while and wanted to get more performance. I was recommended to port and polish the intake and exhaust. We found out they used abrasive material to do it like gritty sand. So I got with my friend that tunes Hondas and we decided to try it ourselves. We got a bag of sandblasting sand and hooked up into the intake and started the car. We had to hold the gas so it would run. He wanted to let the engine suck in the sand through the intake so it would port it out and then push it out the ehxaust so it would port the exhaust manifold.
I was worried that it might cause problems but he figured it'd be OK as long as we didn't make boost and it get sucked in the turbo. After running the car and letting it suck in sand we got about half way through a 25 lb bag. The check engine light was on and the engine was bucking and kicking and sounding really weird. We stopped and hooked the car back up normal and took off the sand supply. We tried to start it again and it was really hard. Once started it couldn't idle and kept making weird noises. We took it out and drove it and it started to make scraping and knocking noises.
Help! Can anyone tell me what to do! My buddy only does Hondas so he doesn't know much about Audis.

Then another guy replyed:


RE: Hey guys, please help with my mods gone wrong... Let me get this straight. You sucked sand directly intro your engine and thought it would help anything? Are you f***ing retarted? Why the hell you think that they put air filters on cars? I can't come up with the words.?!?!?!?!

And P.S. your friend dosen't know any thing about hondas either.

Maybe they needed some mud in the crankcase to polish the journals?

I dunno-years ago a kid I knew drove into the station where I worked,got 5 quarts of oil.I asked if he needed a filter,he said he had just changed it and realised he didn't have any new oil,so he drove down to get some-about a half mile,69 Firebird with that funny 6 cylinder.He took the oil and drove home to put it in-made it half way.Dumbass! ---bil

I was in Lawrence, KS driving a 1965 Merc Comet, 6 cyl gutless wonder.

Hit a Texas culvert at speed, bottom'ed it out. Got out, and watched the life-blood drain out of that bee-yotch.

My luck, one of Kansas' finest was also watching - told me to move it, or spend the night in brownstone's finest.

That Comet made a 3-mile trek to my personal crash site, no oil 'cept what was stuck on the journals.

A brazed sump later, that Comet was back on the road. Gutless wonder, but kept on keepin' on.

True story.
