    Cost of converting A/C to R134a

    Bumping this as I have another question. I've read the forums that you linked to in another thread, but I still can't get a clear answer on if a single stage or dual stage vacuum pump. I'm doing a full rebuild of the A/C system (evap, condenser, expansion valve, dryer, seals, soft lines...

    3K RPM in first and second? Shit, that's bogging the engine, at least 4K is needed to not get any bogging..

    Exploded Spec Stage 5 clutch, beware.

    I know all about that spring, and I don't have one in my 6 puck clutch. I can slip the shit outta my clutch when I need to, but when I was first breaking it in it wouldn't want to slip AT ALL. What I think is odd is the MKIV TT's stock clutch is designed much the same way with the three...

    Oh Oil, Why won't you just stay where you belong?

    He doesn't need fuel upgrades for an upgraded turbo, fuel cut will protect his engine just fine.

    Oh Oil, Why won't you just stay where you belong?

    How many miles have you put on it? I put on a used turbo and I filled the drain line with oil and let it sit upside down (had no idea how long oil hadn't been in it), oil came out the exhaust side and I did get the exact same symptoms as you, but it did go away...

    EGR Block Off Plate

    Yes, in fact they did... None the less, you WILL go lean at low RPM high load... Go up a hill on the highway and the engine builds boost, you may get knocking. It doesn't decrease performance in any way (on our engines, in this discussion), and will only increase gas milage and lower the...

    Split-cycle engine

    Motors are good at stop and go, but have terrible efficency at higher speeds (like highway driving). Motors are cheap to make, and haven't changed much since they where invented. batteries on the other hand are expensive to make, not counting the environmental impact of most of them.
