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.


this guy really did this I found the links to his photos,
unless he made these up too?

Should have used crushed walnut shells instead!!!!!:p

DOH!!!!!

Dont be ridiculous.
Everyone knows walnut shells are to get rid of carbon. If you have a lot of carbon buildup, I would reccomend coconut shells though. Or even whole coconuts if it's really bad!

Did and of you see that Mustang SVT mechanic brag about taking a customers car up to 140 w/o telling them? Ill post the link when I get home.

R Addiction 03-28-2003 09:37 AM

Come on now.....a moosewang going 140!!!!!????? :p

Sydwayz 03-28-2003 10:06 AM

Yeah, I find that a stretch unless it was the SVT Cobra R. That thing is a pretty tight Mushtang.

I do know two brothers who tried to port their 2 stroke GP1200R Yamaha PWC with a Dremmel tool several years ago. It was one of the funniest things I ever saw when the block was at the GLR (Gary Lamb Racing) shop afterward, and they begged him to 'fix it'. The pieces taken out were so choppy it looked like they did it with a sawsall. :D :D :D

Believe it or not, he did actually get that thing running.
