"おうおういっちょ前におったてて"
「おうおういっちょ[前]{まえ}におったてて。」
=
「おうおう、[一丁前]{いっちょうまえ}におっ[立]{た}てて。」
「いっちょ前」 is how we colloquially pronounce 「一丁前」, which means the same thing as 「[一人前]{いちにんまえ}」 = "a full-fledged man", "an adult", etc.
「おっ」 is a slangy verb prefix that emphasizes the meaning of that verb.
「立てる」 here means "to get or keep an erection".
Put it all together, you will have:
"OMG, you've got a good hard-on like a grown man!"
Other verbs we often use with this prefix include:
おっぱじまる、おっぴらく、おっぴろげる、おったまげる, etc.
Notice the rendaku ('h' ⇒ 'p') in the first three above. You must use the 'p' sound for those.
