Sorry to interrupt your thread t3d but where does this line go to?

My friend has a GTI 1.8T full exhaust, APR tuned ECU, CAI, and FMIC running 22psi and I stayed even with him in my 4G63 Laser with just intake, open DP and 18psi. The 1.8T's can't hold that much boost though, it drops down to 10psi by redline (and that's according to a few GTI owners, including...

I'm looking to purchase a bead roller to roll some beads on some intercooler piping, I found some "bead rollers" but it doesn't look like they are designed for piping. Anyone know where I can buy a tool like this?

That'll get you post count up! Have any reasoning behind that suggestion?

All gears.

My transmission is chattering at 1200-1500 RPM then it goes away and doesn't come back only that 300RPM range. It sounds like something loose, I'm going to pull the inspection plate tomorrow to see if I can visually see any problems but what else should I look for and has anyone experienced a...

MAP, IAT and wideband? You have all those parts right? Do you have the MAP and IAT sensors mounted? I assume your running a AEM wideband- power, ground, and one wire for datalogging (I will talk to John about which one and get back to ya)

Your getting the wrong idea. Yes driving up hills and dropping the car to a lower gear pulling as much vacuum as possible is a good way to help seat the rings but it can take more than that, also my experiences are with chromium rings and in my case, needed more "racer boy" driving as you like...

I had to machine my Delphi's to fit the stock rail.

Lotek www.gaugepods.com The 2 gauge pods fit well, some have had trouble with fitment on the 3 gauge pods but nothing some sandpaper shouldn't be able to fix.

Jake, I vote AEM, mine hasn't given me any problems since Doward help me set it up. I wish I had some time to come up there and give you a hand, do you just need the sensors and wideband wired to the harness for the AEM?

I'm gonna have to disagree, I couldn't get my rings seated until I started driving it hard. Take out your wastegate spring or anyway to stay out of boost, go out and drive it hard (obviously not bouncing off the limiter everywhere you go but don't be easy on it). You can start the car with...

That list sums up everything I've been wanting to say.

You don't want it, its cursed, everything that could go wrong did. BUT: 13" brakes coming Sunday, and some tuning! (John, boost with no smoke, you richened up the high rpm well, its in the 10s-11s AFR's and you hardly messed with it.

Good kill Val.

GT3's? Very nice.

Clean the block surface where the pan sits as well. Yes take the pan off. To make it easy you could get the pan acid dipped at a machine shop, otherwise just use a wire wheel and razor blade making it flat as possible. Make sure the pan is clean of any oil before applying FIPG. Don't let...

I dropped my subframe twice last weekend. With the right tools you can drop the subframe in about 2 hours. You'll need to support the engine, remove: ps lines, brake lines, lower strut mounts, sway bar end-links, motor mount nuts, engine gullwing mounts. Then loosen the subframe nuts...

Interested- Are there any pictures of fitment and mounting points? Is it rigid- mount up well, does it feel stiff when shook compared to the stock nose panel piece?

I saw the budget issue- but I thought I'd throw out Doward's BBK he's been working on since its built to be affordable. http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=83234
