    EQT E-Tuning Q&A

    Yeah, I get that. But I plan to drive this car into the ground, so I am figuring in the cost/hassle of future cleanings too. And I could, of course take advantage of the fueling headroom: Question, does this necessitate an upgrade to the low pressure pump? Or is there something to be gained...

    EQT E-Tuning Q&A

    I saw the kit, and the euro manifold and the sensor. Will likely go that route. I assume, but not sure, with the upgraded sensor, map revision(s) to add MPI, could then add wee bit of boost? As I recall the stock sensor tops out at 28 PSI?

    EQT E-Tuning Q&A

    Two Questions: 1) I purchased a tune revision. What's the ETA on an updated file? Been a week or so. 2) Adding MPI to a Vortex install with full bolt on support. What specifically is needed (beside better brakes and a clutch ha)... The kit (I am thinking the smaller injector size as I am not...

    Clutchless ignition update: solved (maybe)

    Looks good. Many thanks. Edit: I ordered 2. Will experiment with tapping the holes. I figure I will bork that once. My rib cage is already hurting thinking about the install.

    Clutchless ignition update: solved (maybe)

    On page 5 you said you updated your shapeways link with the new file. Searching thread for shapeways and tinkercad, I cannot find it. Any chance you have either link in your browser history. And could spare the time to re-share.

    I Predict a Parts Shortage

    So a spare 1.8T for the 2.0T? Gotcha. Seriously though, as I just picked up a 19 Jetta GLI, I might just get some items that are common between it and the 16 Golf R. Water pump and coil packs sound like a good start.

    Watching video's on instrument cluster ?

    As in VIM? On the digital dash? But why? Thread title is cringe worthy. I can sorta understand the desire for VIM on the infotainment screen.

    So long Baby.. Another '15 Bricked

    I'm also convinced this attempt with magnets is more trouble than it's worth. Throws codes immediately. Trouble codes: P172400 - Signal for starter lock Short circuit to ground static P172300 - Signal for starter lock Open circuit static U101000...

    So long Baby.. Another '15 Bricked

    I purchased two solenoids from Amazon - one a 10mm stroke, another 15mm (a much bigger, beefier unit than the 10mm one), I also purchased some very small strong magnets. I'll be driving south for the holiday, and time permitting, I may mess around with these and a 12 VDC supply.

    So long Baby.. Another '15 Bricked

    OK so electro-magnets will not work. How about sticking the strong ass magnets to a 12VDC push solenoid, and wiring in a momentary switch (personally I would hide the switch) to activate the solenoid so as to move the magnet(s) into position before cranking. Releasing the button and the...

    Consensus sound deadning material. Is there one?

    Is there a favorite sound deadning product out there? One that provides value for the money that all the dubbers agree is the 'cat's a$$'. I'm thinking probably not, but thought I'd ask.
