On our first prototype car, the customer came to pick up the car ahead of schedule. The pipes we had made him were the only set we had, so with him waiting in the waiting room, we had to pull everything off the car, copy the pipes as best as we could (so we could send them out to be plasticmolded), and put the car back together. We put it back together quickly, which was a pretty fast dry run, at 5:30, i pulled it out of the shop, he hopped in it, and drove NONSTOP from Kansas City to Arizona. So yes...it will make the trip. This isn't something we like to do though, I like to have an extra day to make sure everything checks out etc to ensure no issues, but so far there hasn't been one in all the times we have pulled the kit off and put it back on with the 2 cars that have been prototypes.
The air intake is an evo cold air intake, which is connected to the custom intake pipes for the supercharger, etc. The headers and cats and o2's stay the same on the 2.5L. The spark plugs stay the same as well. When done inhouse, we will flash the ECU through the OBDII port and takes about 20 minutes. Out of house, would require the installer to pull the ecu (takes but a few minutes) and send it to us to flash. Turn around is a day or 2, so if it is pulled at the beginning of the install and sent out, it will be back quickly. With that being said, if there is a good audi shop, they should be able to handle the install without a problem. I personally am not a big fan of working on audi's, so if you can work on them, you can definetly do this job
