lol classic...I hit 35psi on my 50 trim 1.8t one time because the wg line fell off. I did a few pulls before I figured it out. It was really intense.

I bet that felt really good though because these Holsets seem to really wake up above 20 psi

That thing looks and sounds awesome....I found an old thread on vortex where you were making some carbon fiber front spoilers. How did they come out?? http://forums.vwvortex.com/showthread.p ... nt-spoiler

Does anybody know how the HE351VE does with 2.5 PR? I'm just curious what kind of flow there is. I'm betting it is probably too small for a 3800, but I'm definitely curious.

Not that it matters much, but I did find this on DSMTuners (or something like that):

i took my car out this weekend for the first time in 2 months. Making 30 psi now that the air is cooler and I 'forgot' to tweek my boost control map. Pretty nuts. Holsets surely wake up after 20psi.

Unfortunately, its just not very detailed. Derek, there's a nice FAQ on Garrett's website IIRC. It's a 3 part article.

couple things.

no more tuning, ECU and Computer are not talking again. same port used on the computer that previously worked, now i get the error message again :(


i finally took advantage of my 01E transmissions engine speed sensor hole and put the sensor there to read the tone ring on the flywheel.

after Image
sensor in the bellhousing Image

and i also took my new damper and had 1.5lbs machined off the outside face.

i do notice an improvement in throttle response :) i'm sorta toying with the TB wedge removal too.

also, after over two years, i finally got the rear seat..
Image
the door panels are together, but i have to change a the top half of the panel because with the padding underneath, it's too thick to stick in the window wipe trim piece :(

What brackets did you use to mount the PS pump Derek?

I like the removal on the dampener. I will do that tommorrow

PS, I am working on your pm reply.

Saw it before but never really noticed. Thats not much "wrap" on the PS, does it slip? Nice work, keep it up!

PS pump doesn't slip that i'm aware of. it's as much wrap as i could get without an added idler, which i didn't want to fit in.
