Interesting vrv solution

Was scrolling through the idi page on this site looking for injectors and saw this. Pretty interesting fix, not to mention reliable.

Interesting, can you dig up any information on this that's shareable? I think it would be pretty interesting to read through.

if you get that E4OD built right you won't ever want to go back to a C6.... but I do agree the swap is a PIA and can be expensive for sure.
