g-dub 0 Posted January 2, 2005 still got my performance problem, just wondering could my car need a tune-up after certain mods, i've removed the CAT and fitted a zorst, put twin inlets on the charger, removed the carbon cannister and power steering setup, fitted a rallye intercooler, samcos and RS outlet, but the car is as exciting as my mk1 gti, with less pull, tried the timing, checked for boost leaks, and done a-z on all pipes, could my car be under fueling, i am led to beileve that the ECU should sort it's self out but is it, should it be setup in a garage, to tell that dam ECU to start pumpin more juice???

Supercharged 2 Posted January 2, 2005 Sounds like one of the engine sensors is dead or the car just needs setting up - a trip to somewhere like G-werks or Stealth would be well worth it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g-dub 0 Posted January 2, 2005 well i did the check that you take off the sensor from the water pipe bit and the cars idle goes funny, so i led to belive all sensors are ok, could i just take it to my local RR, what things can they check, so i can ask???

g-dub 0 Posted January 3, 2005 right then fitted the bosch ones not much difference really, but when looking at my spare head, i notices a bit different to my car, the fuel pump run on pressure switch is gone and the fuel line blocked off, would this be removed with the charcol cannister or boost return or could this be my problem, where did it go and what did it do??

W3RKD 0 Posted January 3, 2005 i think the car just needs setting up mate. sounds like everything is working just not in harmony ... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g-dub 0 Posted January 3, 2005 daz so i don't need that switch on then, also i'll bring it down to you, what would you do to it?, as i might get some off the work i want doing at the same time Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g-dub 0 Posted January 3, 2005 the injectors on my spare head are green in colour, are these uprated ones or are the red ones better Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted January 3, 2005 Greens are standard, the red ones have a higher flow rate - needed if your running a 65 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g-dub 0 Posted January 3, 2005 ahhhh, maybe there just cleaner then, couldn't tell the colour on the ones in the car, hidden, by muck and lack of light, Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
