Just a quick note to clarify on the electrical:

The Audi ECU will be used instead of the DME, and the custom engine harness will hook up to both the Audi ECU and the two Porsche (technically BMW) connectors in the trunk.

Gauges and all electrical systems will work as normal. Key immo will be lost but at least if the immo module in the car gets wet at least you can still start the car! Remote key lock and unlock functions will be retained as before.

This is being made a complete kit that will have a list of parts that need to be sourced from the donor Audi vehicle. It will have many custom machined parts, both cast and billet as required, as well as the custom wiring harness and flywheel. Many parts will be able to be sourced elsewhere, such as the clutch.

We will keep you posted as the car nears completion.
