OOOOH!:eek: The Steve car! ~begins salivating profusly, wipes chin......feels embaressed~ Hey, whats on the table for mods now?:D
I was thinking of a new set of plugs and points, maybe even adjust the timing or something. No really a bit of head work and maybe a fatter exhaust. I even cleaned the turbo and got about 8#'s of crud out of the thing. Trying to help the poor car breathe a bit better. No doubt I could use some assistance setting my fueling IQ and checking the injection timing. Now to go get the Gritty's Haloween Ale and see about the Turkey Jerky!!! Mrchill I will certainly need your opinion after a test ride or 2 to see if progress is being made:D

PeterV,

Would you be able to invite your Meineke Muffler friend? It would give us a good opportunity to talk with him about a "Mufflerectomy GTG" at his shop and to gauge interest. There was a good bit of interest in that thread but the summer and fest got in the way of any serious discussion plans.

Perfect timing! I'd like to install the Dieselgeek skid plate I got at TDI Fest.

Some other possibilities: Oil change, brake fluid change, install Dawes device, maybe a boost guage, and I need to see Jeff. Oh - and maybe some quick Vag-Com lessons too.

I'll bring tools and a cooler - plus some real food to go along with the Twinkies.

I have to juggle a kid
Have Dave_594 juggle him/her. :eek: If he can juggle knives, he can juggle a kid!! Zippy, where is that picture?

We need to decide which Krappy is coming (wagon or sedan) and/or if the Audi wants to make an appearance. Are all the G's spoken for already?

I love the idea of the Muffler guru coming. He may have a line as long as Jeff's!!

Do people have Fest photos that we can play somewhere?

Now I'd consider it the best thing you could do on the weekend !!!! ...I'm trying to find a good excuse to make the 4.5 hour trip from Montreal,
Yuri.
It is indeed the best thing to do on a weekend and if my sister's family wasn't coming and I was able to come, the 4.5 hours for me wouldn't stop me although I am likely to crash at my friend's for the night. 9 hours in one day with a 4 year old is too much! Although I did drive 4.5 hours straight with her being awake in the car the whole time without complaints till the last 30 minutes. :eek:

Only problem with the Fluff is that it makes everything sticky

I'm planning to be there!!!! :cool: I have a brand new EuroJet FMIC from KERMA still in the box and waiting to be installed.

Anybody done an FMIC install in an A4 Golf/Jetta and willing to help? I know I'm gonna need help.

I dont know what you could be referring to! I am INNOCENT.... Oh so INNOCENT!
Yeah.. and she's got the T-shirt to Prove it! :p
Oh don't give us the sob story! Your in California, you have nothing to complain about!

All this talking about licking and Zippy and fluff and sticky.......

I SO got out of my shift today! I am so there!

I would like some help putting in my PP520's while I'm there. I think I have most of the tools that I need and will bring them along. Someone else also wanted to do injectors, so maybe we can help each other.
I'm also going to bring my friend Thor, he's hoping for a ride in a FAST tdi, I said I'm sure someone can help with that.

I sure hope to be there - I have a check engine light that needs investigating.

Fingers crossed I can make it.

For all those who wish to donate towards an earlier flight home for Zippy, send your money to Ho5GEntertainmentfund@paypal.com. All excess proceeds will be spent on Twinkies, Fluff, and pudding. :D
I bet if we just took the week off work we could make it out there, throw her in the hatch and be back in time for the frying! Sweet, ROAD TRIP! :D

If I just get the nozzles, someone will help me swap them into my injector bodies? I have no idea what to do....
I'm now happy to help you put yours in if you get them and come up. I have all the tools, so long as Peter and Juile have a vise.

I am also going to have Jeff chip my car this weekend, instead of waiting until the dyno day. If someone could let him know that would be great! How does he like to be paid when it's at a GTG?

I will also be bringing cheep beer and soda for all to enjoy!

I just found this thread: how did I manage to miss it?

Dave, don't you want RC4? You'll need it to counter the road-hugging weight of that heater. And Colraindub, there will probably be a few chipped A3s there for you to try.

I'm thinking about bringing the Golf for a group hug and some cosmetic TLC. It really needs it. Or the white Jetta, same need, along with dampers. Drivers wanted...
