Hey y'all. I made the mistake of trying to toss in a wavetrac lsd in the days leading up to my back surgery. I got the trans bolted up together but when i would turn the diff, the input shaft would spin for a little then not mesh right and stop spinning. I have no clue what it is as I had no...

https://www.xmanturbos.com/product-page/pd150-intake-egr-delete-kit I cant say anything abt pd130vs150 but this is where I got mine; it came with everything I needed besides a brass elbow to connect the coolant outlet/inlet for egr cooler. Payed 230 USD at the time but now its closer to 200...

Now I just have to finish some odds and ends and have my first start up with my new cam, bigger injector nozzles, and new tb. Not to highjack my own thread but, with replacing the Injectors, I should pull the glow plugs and turn over the engine a few times right? By hand I assume? Any other...

Well here’s the odd mix of good and bad news: Bad news- I was finishing up my TB and gave a bit too much support with the Jack from underneath the oil pan (it’s been a long couple of days) and cracked it. Thankfully it was just a hairline crack, nothing jb weld won’t fix. Good news- took off...

And I don't have access to a shop vac right now so while that sounds like a great idea it isnt an option

I just did the cam and injectors as well, i'd assume it is a bad idea to have a dry start after that job right? Could I supplement with lots of assembly lube? My boroscope will arrive later today so i'm going to take a look and see if it is hopefully still near the top. Thanks a lot guys, i'll...

I really screwed up. I was putting in some pd150 headbolts into my bew and while cleaning out the bolt holes, I dropped a piece of blue shop towel the size of a quarter in the oil drain ports (idk if thats the technical term). I figured I would go buy a boroscope tomorrow and see if i can get it...

Hey all. Hopefully this is the right section to post this in. I’m looking for someone in the sd area who I’d be able to pay to delete the immobilizer on an edc16u31. Or, any shop recommendations would be great. Looking into this versus sending it off for a hopefully shorter turn around. Thanks!

I’m doing both lifters and injectors, they’re oem injectors with different nozzles. Looking at the kits for hardware is a good idea thank you

I’m putting in a new cam and injectors into my bew. While I’m at it I’m going to do the TB as well. I’m taking all the parts including the TB and associated parts off a parts car I have (car hasn’t been turned over since new cam/TB). For those jobs what bolts and gaskets will I need? I know...

I’m interested in running a secondary fuel filter in addition to the oem one similar to mountain lion in this thread. The Napa 4770 will fit the filter I want, so there shouldn’t be any issues running an in and out fuel line right? Should be a pretty simple deal. Basically just want some...

You were right. The silicone elbow on the race pipe wasn't on all the way. Thanks!

Hey yall. So I had a badly cracked lower egr pipe so I decided to go ahead and do a pd150 intake manifold and race pipe. I started the car up and I have some boost because I could hear the turbo spooling and I got used to zero boost when I had the major EGR leak. But I don't think I have full...

Thats what I was worried about. I think I'll go with Tourqe Pro and get an analog boost gauge. Thanks all for the help!

Sorry if that was confusing- I’m looking for a plug and play Android system but I can make an iOS system work if it is substantially better

Hey y'all. I am looking to make a live data setup for my 04 Jetta. I will probably be using a Bluetooth android tablet with a Bluetooth OBD2 adapter. However, if there is a significantly better app for IOS i could do that as well. The general answer seems to be the Tourqe Pro app but I want to...

Thanks for all this insightful info. Very helpful and I'll be taking all of this into account. Also, turns out the maf harness was just unplugged and that helped the power substantially. Duh.

Hey all. I have a bit of a 2 part question here. I have a pretty new to me 2004 Jetta wagon TDI with around 235k miles on it. I want to take care of these 2 codes (P0128 & P0102) and also take care of all the maintenance that was likely neglected on the car as it will eventually be my mother's...

Thank you all for the help. I’ll be looking into the burpod tune.

OK got it thank you. So a stage 1 tune Malone tune wouldn't cause any issues? I figure that wouldn't be considered "not quite right".
