I will hold you to that. Breathtaking attention to detail.

Kev on you wastegate where does the vaccum port on the bottom of the wastegate go. Does it get caped off or does it run back to a vaccum sorce. I know that the top port hooks into the boost controller then to the pressure port on the turbo, but the book I have for my boost controller does not shoe where the port on the bottom of the wastegate goes.
Thanks.

The bottom port goes onto the other port on the boost controller. Have a look at this bud:

Thanks. Do you have anything on the fuel pump for the wiring at the pump. I ran two pump in the tank and I am going to run another power and relay for the other pump but I need to know which wire at the pigtail is power. I think one is blue and the other is tan/black strip. I know there are five wires but the other three are constant power and the other two are for the sending unit-fuel gauge.

I'm ony running a single Walbro pump so I'm afraid I don't have any info. Have you looked on www.mkiv.com ?

jat4372 · 27th July 2008, 02:16 AM

yes and could not find it. But its after I get everything hooked up and ready to start I can find out which wire is hot when I crank the engine over. By the way I bought a single kit like yours. T 67, aem standalone, DLI, 4 Inch exhaust all the way out, 3 inch intercooler pipeing all the way around. But the kit I got came with 1000cc injectors and I am wondering if that is going to be way to my fuel, or can I adjust it out ok. Also got number 8 fuel line.
But my kit is not polished so it does not look as good as yours. Also if it would be any help to you I have a titian motorsport tune for my aem, if it could help.

Sounds similar. One thing I will say about the 4" exhaust is due to the v-band, the ground clearance isn't as good as it used to be

I'm not that sure on the injectors to be honest. How are you getting on with the install? Have you thought about starting your own members project thread? I'd love to see some progress pictures

Thanks for the offer of the map but I'm hoping to get the guy who sorted out my base map back once I finally get time to run my engine in.
