Dejan,
great build thread, you've been making very good progress.
Did you remove the inlet manifold and other bits and cleaned the inlet valves ? What happens to the carbon ? It'll hit the turbo blades ? Then block the cat ?
Did the IC fit on ok with no modifications ? Is it like this one ?

Core length: 24"
Core height: 16"
Core thickness" 2.25"
Inlet / outlet : 2.75"
End to end length: 28-36"

hi,
Yes Im remove intake manifold, because Im instal S3 injectors... In same time Im make valve cleaning... When you cleaning valves your piston MUST be in TOP position!!! Before you go to next cilinder valves you MUST vacum all carbon so you can't have any carbon part in your combustion chamber because it will make damage to your engine!!! When you finish cleaning first cilinder you must by hand turn your engine "belt" and top next piston...
IC fit without modifications. Only part which missing are BOLT's and you can't use original ones... It looks same but I can't confirm if is real same :) My cost me 220GPB with shipping but now has seller increase price and cost 560GPB with shipping to me...

Ok -
remove intake manifold
turn the engine with the spark plugs removed so it is TDC (inlet valves closed)
then you use those brushes with an electric drill, then use a vacuum cleaner to suck out the carbon ?
Sounds risky to me, I don't have the courage to do it! So this is the negatives for TFSI ... dirty inlet valves.

Im make mistake. Valves must be closed and not piston in top position... Im not mechanic so not shure if valves are close when piston is in top position but if I remember it is. So important thing is that valves are close, that carbon parts don't fall into combustion chamber...
Im using brushes without eletric drill and Im do cleaning by hand brushes (better feeling to not damage anything) ... Im using brushes from THIS link... Im use vacum cleaner to suck out carbon and also air compressor but protect outside engine because you will have carbon everywhere :) Also use protection glasses!!! First cilinder Im do by wet process with using Liqui Molly Valve Cleaner, leave valves wet and after few minutes start cleaning them. Im find that dry process is easier and easier to suck carbon out... So all other three cilinder valves i do without liquid ...
If you have basic mechanical skils, tools and a lot of time I don't see reason why you can't do this alone and save 200GPB or more ... Do not forget change all gaskets with new ones!!! And if you pull out injector change teflon seal!!!
