    I went FULL NEWB.. Never go full NEWB... Help needed please.

    Welcome to the club! For number 1, do a search for "Slowdown shudder". It has to do with the amount of fuel being injected and has to be changed with a laptop. This is most likely your issue. It is not harmful and is easy to fix. Good luck!

    Gt1749va + gt2056v ?

    2 stroke oil & dpf data

    I really like reading this thread and had no idea that you could look at the ash content of the DPF without taking it off. I've been running about one ounce of two stroke oil per gallon for about 10k miles. No issues so far. It does seem like DPF regen cycles happen less frequently, but I...

    Car is only boosting 2psi.. need help!

    Just turning the car off and back on will take it out of limp mode. If it is the VNT actuator that is adjusted incorrectly, the low boost will trigger the limp mode to come on over and over again when boost is too low for a preset amount of time. That might be why it will pick up and go...

    2.0l BEW, 6sp, GTB2260vk, FMIC Custom Build Thread

    I think you're reading the horsepower number from one run and comparing it with the torque of a different run. There are two runs on that dyno sheet. Edit: I was referring to the first dyno spreadsheet. On the second spreadsheet, I see what you're saying. I think the rpm versus mph must not...

    ALH: propane and nitrous in tandem?

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hy9vy0pduMA It works. I read somewhere that they installed nitrous and propane on this Golf TDI, but they didn't mention the propane. I don't know how else it could go so fast with just nitrous.

    Coolant cooled turbo?

    Just replaced the vnt15 turbo, now I'm not boosting???

    I suspect it's the hole in the exhaust manifold. When I had a small leak at one of the gaskets on the EGR pipe, there was a noticeable drop in power.

    The correct turbo size for my application

    I thought you meant they never made a wagon at all besides the Passat. I don't know the year this one is, but I'm sure you're right.

    I'm pretty sure your MAF didn't survive the flood. :(
