Are parts going to be available seperatly? I personally feel that it is a bad idea to use the Digifant II system as shown in the picture. Too many people have too many problems with it and dealers seem to burry their heads in the sand with this injection system. If I were going to purchase this kit I would want it without the engine and engine management. Then install CIS-E or Motronic system instead.

It is too bad that they didn't design an Audi 5 cylinder conversion kit. Now that is the definition of torque!
