    Had this done about 3 weeks ago . .I did the Hammer mod myself and had a friend come over and show me how to do the IP timing advance and check it with VAG. .None so far except for washing the rear hatch 2 times a week . But the right foot is having !!

    I did the injector hot swap program from Kerma , they sent me the injector puller tool ,metalnerd tool for triangle safety bolt on IP and my new 764's nozzles mounted to injectors all calibrated and ready to go. . I did find a new plug end in the box that needed to be swapped out with the OEM one in the car for the 3rd injector wire. . Kerma had the 764's on sale for $249.00 . .I coluldnt pass them up .

    or both?

    and I did buy some hawk DTC60 pad for the front of the golf -- considering running it in TimeTrials with NASA at Autobahn in July (when it is nice and hot and diesel doesn't overheat). I'd run in TTF.

    anyway

    Here was the day I drove home my TDI Dec 22nd (and promptly cleaned it to put it in the garage)



    and miata for heck of it (me in foreground in case it wasn't obvious)

    If you are going to be there. Most likely I willbe working the weekend you are there. I will keep an eye out for you and lord I hope I will have my R by there.

    Flying....Looks like you are on the south track. How often you get out there?

    Change of plans for my TDI. As I have sent my ALH into the drink by accident, and thrown a rod through the side of the block...., I am now installing my tdi setup in my 70 bus. Build thread pending.

    I pulled the TDI harness and ECU out of storage today... Im ready to make this a reality!
