Re: My VEMS VRT o1e CQ..

well after having clogged 2200cc and waiting for my guy to flow them, I was on the 870cc siemens for the dyno when the head lifted. I still haven't gotten my 22s back yet so I just ordered new replacements and new hats.

Re: Vemstune file gt3071r

you will not find a Tuned file for your setup, however you want to find one on same fuel/size injectors and general turbo size. marc might have one

but every setup needs fine tuning. as even 1 psi difference in fuel pressure can change the whole ve table.
same for many other variables in the turbo ...

Re: My VEMS VRT o1e CQ..

The Phillips just holds it steady. Once it's starts to get tight, u don't even have to hold it while ightening nut. I'd prefer Allen head instead of the phillips but I probably won't ever take them out anyway.

I got some garage time last night. Motor is back in the car.

I am not sure. I found a loose exhaust housing. After looking at logs the spool is same if i compare to same wg spring and boost valve level setting.
When I first had a smoking turbo I did not notice loose housing. And now that the car is apart I can actually inspect the shaft which feels solid ...

Clutchmasters put new ring gear on for 80$. Done.

Shit ships tomorrow.


Cm for the win and Mike hood at ringer racing for taking care of it for me.

So getting fucked by 034 it seems. I have their flywheel for vr6 quattro and it was sent to clutch masters so they can machine it to accept their 850 clutch kit which is done.
