    GT4088 turbo, 630cc, short runner, ... on SDS

    323whp 310tq @12psi

    stoped at 12psi because the car was leaning out. i think it was my aftermarket crappy fuel filter.
    it would spike to 14 A/F after we passed 320whp. there wasnt any boost spike either. i was also running a walbro 255

    just ordered : bosch 044 + aeromotive fuel filter.

    hopefull 400whp+ next week when i hit the dyno again.

    I am sure I won't be the only one to say it... but you have a lot more potential there with that turbo and injectors.. definitely look into your fueling

    could it be the in-tank pump that isnt supplying enough fuel ? im almost 99% sure it was due to my ****ty fuel filter.

    i was running one of these

    fuel pump: ebay
    wastegate: Lugtronic, ATP Turbo, 034 Motorsports, CTS Turbo
    Manifold: ATP Turbo
    Downpipe: Kinetiec Motorsports (but probably better off with custom)

    Fueling: much better to go with Lugtronic, If set on a chip tune, you have to contact UM directly to buy their products.

    what about the kinetic manifold? and bfi sells the c2 63# software with promaf and 630cc injectors for 600$, i know UM is better but i know people here on the forum who are happy with their c2 software

    Kinetic manifold is fine. I'm personally running and ebay ATP clone that I bought for $80. 21psi and not a problem yet.

    It's up to you whether you want UM or C2. Since Jeff originally wrote the C2 tune, in my current view, whatever C2 is doing to it now is just building off what Jeff innovated. The UM tune is new and written by Jeff directly, so all the actual new innovation is there. Just mu $.02

    But seriously, if you don't need to pass emissions inspection, you are better off going with Lugtronic. Hell, Kevin has probably figured out a way to beat emissions testing too. Why not just talk to him and bounce some ideas off him? If you don't like what he has to say, go with your chip tune. Pretty simple stuff.

    I'm pretty sure that it's $600 for the software alone; the description on BFI's website is somewhat ambiguous about what's included.

    For reference, BFI sells the PRO.MAF by itself for $359, and combined with 60# injectors, you'd be in the neighborhood of $700, not including software; grand total would probably set you back about $1300 or so.

    Since you're planning on an inline pump, 630cc, and a chip tune, you could look into the availability of e85 near you. UM has done some awesome things with their E85 tunes. On a mkiii, its e85 only, but on a mkiv with factory wideband engine management, its a flex fuel capable setup.
    Jack of all trades.

    Switched teams. Picked up a 74 911 with PMO/RS/SSI go-fast bits.


    Collecting parts for potentially installing my Schimmel 3L with the turbo in the back using kennedy engineering adapter kit and Renegade Hybrids rad setup... just that once you drive one of these things it's hard to go back.

    Bah, I'm a vr6 junkie and these old chassis don't have emissions requirements... not that I would turn down a new Porsche but there is a certain character to the older cars that has been lost.

    definitely love the curves of the old/classic Porsche... im just getting tired on working on a project (maybe im just getting old lol ) so a turn key sports car is for me, maybe in a few years ill get mine

    my jetta will turn 25 in a few months so goodbye to emissions requirements (even though it passes with flying colors!)

    WTF Andrew...mid life crisis? I like

    I'd never give up my VRT.....unless its for a 2.5T

    Edit: I love the NH temp plate. The kind you don't have to break out the title. I forget you're in NH. I was just up there. I'm coming back too. My Audi's engine is up there (I'll let you know exactly later)


    Edit: Picking this up next week. Wanted an mk3 GLX but wifey's an Audi nut... Even suggested that i ditch the Jetta for an Audi.

    car is FINALLY back on the road! I'm having some weird problems with the tranny though. I have an intermittent gear oil leak. The only time I have noticed it is after a long drive. Last time it happened, when I pushed the clutch in all the way, I could feel a grinding vibration coming through the clutch pedal. Very strange. After sitting for a few days, there was a salad plate sized stain under the car. Any ideas?

    Also, what is everyone running for gear oil in their O2As? I'm currently running OEM, but I have some stiff gear engagement and am wondering about changing it up.
