i dyno'd at 280/360 with my current setup. stock motor and turbo, with a failing headgasket :(. i/c pipes, fake greddy bov, bic ddp, full 3" exh, k&n filter, colder plugs, lex/550 setup. i also used high imp injectors. there's a quick fix that makes them work fine.

they do make plug and play injectors. i have fic injectors, so i had to get the clips. i think stock mk4 injectors plug right in and are 550's.

what about running a bullet muffler under the car, and just a pipe out the back? i'm considering doing this to get rid my apexi n-1 cop magnet.. lol

do NOT install the afm without the injectors. just put in the afm and 550's, and you'll be fine. i was hitting fc at anything over 8 psi, and now i can pull 17psi with no problems. i have a 3"ddp, full 3" exh, k&n filter, and a greddy boost controller. i checked the afr's with an innovate...

finished up the lower end of my motor and painted the block. also polished and painted whatever i could get my hands on. :) yes, that is chevy orange. https://sphotos-b-lga.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/1240187_665635563447713_254450551_n.jpg

245-50-16 is a much better fit than 235-60. the stock tire diameter is 24.9. that 235-60 is 27.1. way too tall in my opinion.

check for boost leaks. start with the hose right off the turbo. mine literally fell apart in my hand. after that check all the clamps. what you're describing absolutely sounds like a boost leak.

+1. they look pretty good on mk3's. i just don't think there's a lot of tire size choices in 16's.

it is possible. i have seen a bad switch cause this issue though.

wrong bulbs, brake light switch, bad grounds................

i think most people will tell you to ditch the struts.

got my car running after my flat bed trip the other night. found a random wire under the intake had grounded itself out and blew the 15a fuse. i think it went to the vsv that's long gone now. :) of course now the car is idling low and wants to stall, but "new" motor is being worked on as we...

that's not a bad deal. not sure if you will have to replace the clips though. some injectors are plug-n-play. i have fic injectors, and i had to replace the clips. i think they were like $35 for all six clips.

i'm not sure if porting the wastegate would help. there are a few options, like a fcd or a standalone computer. honestly, i think the best bang for the buck is the lex-550 combo. i really don't see a downside to doing it. i mean, for around $400 you can go from hitting fuel cut all the time to...

i couldn't run more than stock boost without hitting fuel cut. if you don't have a lex afm, and 550's, i highly recommend getting them. i'm able to run 16psi without hitting f/c now. and yes, i used a wideband to see if everything was safe, and my afr's are between 10.5 and 12 at wot. also...

thanks,.... i really hope it's not the ecu............ i just sold my spare yesterday...

are you telling me that they are willing to pay for your 200k engine blowing up? gotta go now, headed to guy some seafoam for ALL my cars.

i replaced the starter a few days ago. i'm going to look in that area to see if i hit any other wires while removing it. if i'm lucky, that's all it is. :)

ok guys, here's one for you. while i was driving down the highway at 60, the lights flickered but i didn't really pay attention to it. about a half mile down the road they did it again, then the car just shut off. i did some diag on the side of the road, but i didn't feel safe there so i...

i cannot wait to see this thing finished.
