VW had changed the shift forks from bronze to steel and they are relatively inexpensive.

Larger teeth mean more strength at the tooth root, so each individual tooth is stronger, however the drawback is the tooth is angled more meaning a larger loss to friction, more wear on the tooth surface and more noise.

not yet. traction is a problem, even with a limited slip diff, and I'm trying to resolve the fueling issue
I posted this over on Storx's build thread:

Your 0-60 time at 5:53 looks like mine: 8.5 seconds (still trying to figure out how to upload Torque App Videos with data).... not sure how hard you were 'trying' though

The full mounts? How do you like them? Thinking about switching eventually. I don't mind any NVH at all.

tranny, engine and dog bone insert.
BFI recommends against higher duro than yellow for diesels. they are fine now, but at first they really vibrate and set up a resonance noise

That is good to know Hutch, ride has finally settled with the yellow then? My motor mounts are on their way out after 50k miles of stage 2 so I figured I'd do it all at once.

What did u end up doing for the Engine side to accomodate the Aux fuel pump, fuel filter housing and washer fluid neck that bolted to the stock mount housing?
Something like this?

Holy cow did that video make me dizzy! Kept watching anyway, looks like the car rips!
Besides trying to fabricate a larger / different / dual HPFP - what else can be done to keep rail pressure up on a WOT pass in the taller gears to prevent a limp mode?
I know on my LLY Duramax , PPE (I think it was) offered a different fitting where the fuel line went onto the rail that flowed more fuel. It actually worked too, stopped my low rail pressure codes when I was really thrashing the truck.
I wish my 09 Had the 10' style wheel & dash in it too!

Damn man, not being sarcastic but seems like you have had a rough year. I saw you post pictures of your house in a mud slide, broken bones, surgeries, broken transmissions. Hope 2014 goes smoother!

The duramax LML pump bolts right in to the factory bracket, factory gear fits and it clears the intake manifold I'm working on the line options to make it work.
I am going to either make a fitting to use a second feed line into a T-block, or I am still trying to make a crafter rail work. The duramax runs at 2000 bar and has been tuned to 500WHP before hitting the same issues we are seeing.

Not sure I'll look this weekend. I add it all in lined up just need to get a final design for the shim to my machinist. Lines will be the biggest hurdle, but I need figure out which route I want to go.
Right now I want to get a tune for the stock turbo with increase rail pressure and see how it goes.
I do know it is different then the 3.0L pump has extra ports and sensors and is a larger housing.

I'm definitely going to do this. Going to do it in time (by the end of the year) and build it up and reinforce the parts before the turbo. I'm currently at 80k miles. Rawtek exhaust and malone stage 2 and S3 ic. Thank you for this thread it has been very informative and those guys across the pond at dark side will definitely get my business. My goal is to have that turbo plug and play and not have any of the bugs everyone seems to be having.

So we can use a Duramax pump with the correct plumbing?

Yes still working on it. Best solution will utilize stock rail info coming as parts become finalized.
Brian's car was sold to a new owner, im not sure if the new owner will post in regards to further updates.... it was kinda forced upon him due to job moving him him to an area that wouldn't allow further continuation of the project without a lot of red tape and government heartaches...

I believe Aaron of Bora Parts in Gresham, OR has it now.

*In reference to the build this thread is for, not specifically that rail setup.
Nope, new owner is quite busy and I don't know if we'll get updates when they are not busy anyhow. Know that it went to a good home, living owners with the means to take care and complete it properly.

What fuel pump did you upgrade to? Could you post a link? I know this thread is older but im very interested in this setup! Thanks in advance!

I'm not sure (and I haven't read through the whole thread), but I think this was done with stock fuel pump. The only upgraded fuel pumps I've seen are the GTD pump or the CP3 pump. There are threads on both. Contact a local tuner to you and they could tell you more.
