LOL. Some sniffing machines probably found some machine oil on the rods or bolts and snatched up your package. What a pain man!!! Hope you get it straightened out in time. (fingers crossed)

(same as my Silver Bullet, and Joe TDI's car) Lots of new stuff in the works too! Building another one now - 00Jetta Blue Rocket! Now I have Red/White/and Blue TDI's. Next Bronze/Silver/and Gold TDI's hehe.

Pierre, if your cyl head is similar in setup to JoeTDI's, you should have no problem putting down some very respectable numbers on a dyno. You will definitely be maxxing out the 17/22. I doubt it'll smoke much on the street either What a great setup man.jsrmonster said:Good news, your ecu is on it's way with new RACEROCKET R520 tune ;-)

That would be sweet!

Please send me email with your ph#, and address and I'll take care of this.NewTdi said:Jeff,
I was hoping you could have put my ecu exchange in the box with Pierre's! Maybe next time ...
heykw said:What did you pay to get the front bumper painted. Your car looks great and it has got me thinking.
I'm with you on this one. I've broken plenty of things modifying and maintaining my Jetta. Very maddening!tothemax said:I am pretty new at this mechanical stuff and usually end up going one step forward two steps back and breaking a few things everytime I do something new. I should start a thread on all the f_ckups I have had so far I'd be quite a kick..
Farfromovin said:Beautiful!!! God that car is gonna run nice when it goes back together. How's the timeline looking for the first startup?
Growler said:Pierre, your Tin is on backwards.
the removable section goes toward the back side.
Best of luck!
3L3M3NT said:Ok so I didn't take the time to read through the entire thread, so you may have mentioned it, but what turbo are you going to be running?
Car is shaping up nicely.
The 17/22 should be ok for now, but I'm sure if you are upgrading rods, then you can safely run a 2260. I know when I was out by Jeff early on in December that he was working on a kit for going bigger turbo, but didn't say when it would be ready. That's kind of what I'm waiting for.tothemax said:Tnx for the compliments,
on the turbo, right now we are putting on the 17/22 until Jeff has the new 2260 hybrid kit ready. I was hoping for it to be ready this spring but it's not clear when it will be available anymore. If not ready by early summer, I may go with the new GT2256V kit from biochoppers, http://forums.tdiclub.com/showthread.php?t=274330&highlight=DC or something equivalent. No question I will need a bigger turbo before TDI Fest.
Are you coming to TDI Fest?
Ok so I could probably set the cruise at 120TDikook said:100? thats it? come on, 120 EASY!!! i reached 130 the other day and it was SOLID!!!
