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.




I'd say his buddy doesn't know much about anything.:laughing:

I would have paid good money to watch that! :laughing:

:laughing:

I'm running out to port and polish my engine just like that too.

Fawkin' idiots

that also doubles as an effective method of removing any carbon buildup from the valves.






asshat.

First off, check the piston return spring. That may have been damaged by the sand. If
that's okay, be sure your muffler bearing isn't rattling. If so, replace it, because a
rattling muffler bearing can result in a blinker fluid leek. If your car is an automatic, you
may want to check the clutch, but if it's a stick, your best bet is to replace the stall
converter. Since your car is fuel injected, it's possible you need to adjust your
carburetor to compensate for the additional fuel demand caused by the sand porting.

Also, after doing a sandport job, it's important to start using diesel fuel.

Good luck!lmfao

Think itd get hot enough in there to turn it to glass?

LMAOROTF, Please tell me thats a joke and someone didnt really do that? Fawkin import owners:shaking:
