have you spliced into the loom at all previously?

aaaaahhhhhhhhhh :) 20/20. You've got me all misty eyed and nostalgic now.

:) Once upon a time this was a serious re-build thread.... Ok maybe not. :)

back tracking now.. :worthless:

:D

:epicfail:

So how's your coke habit developing ?

Er, :epicfail: in terms of getting oil temp down. Massive success in terms of getting a more consistant inlet charge temperature though. It does seem to make the car less dependant on ambient air temp for proper acceleration, so I can recommend it for that at least. I am heading towards an air con radiator fitment to get the oil temp down to a sensible level, the Americans and Germans don't seem to suffer the same oil temps as we get and that's the only difference. I also think a decent aftermarket engine managment setup will remove the vagueness that is Digifant, it just can't deal with fuel delivery in a NA mk 2 Golf 8v so adding the charger means it's less consistant. I think the Adaptronic one should allow me to retain ISV safety function and knock control as well as having all the joys of either existing narrow band O2 or wideband, throttle pot and a novelty optional output for all engine functions on a screen in car. it was worth a shot although I was skeptical about the relationship between oil temperatures and inlet charge.Sounded nice in theory so I was interested to see how you got on. My mocal mounted in the original intercooler position works brilliantly tbh. I have no problems with oil temps at all. Yup digifant just about copes with the g60 but it isn't ideal system for a FI car. Will be good to see how you get on with the Adaptronic. Would be a good move for the 16vg60.

Unreal.... Peddling phallic packages on my build thread. I don't think Toad wants it for his car.... :eek: :lol: i though it best he saw the back box though. So he can judge it for size. :)

backbox viewtopic.php?f=11&t=74735 As in the first few pics. Free to a good home. sorry sonic. :wink:

] your welcome to it. :)

u been drinking? :wink: You've confused him with me I think. I gave up on your exhaust and bought a super sprint. :) Haha no I'm just about to start though! Ye sorry I got you mixed up. Has it just been transferred from my big store of unwanted parts, to yours? Does that mean all my wrapping was in vain!!? P1010491a.JPG[/attachment:13lepcj1] :lol: :lol: yup. Now taking up vital cm/\3 in my garage instead of yours. Maybe i'll hang it from the ceiling or you can have it back as a marital aid if you miss it?! :D

:lol: I know that one. "Thats really dangerous there I must tidy that away" Two weeks later I'm still tripping over it. :roll: So is most of the spending over.Just a case of re-building?

That depends soley on you. :lol: I think I ended up just needing one extra after one went pinging off and I couldn't find it. My garage is a mess though. :(

u been drinking? :wink: You've confused him with me I think. I gave up on your exhaust and bought a super sprint. :)

:lol: order two extra.

I'm going to take up piston juggling. :lol: I have pistons everywhere! It's all good though. Shouldn't be too much longer now! :D crank spinning nice and freely? You should be able to turn it with one finger. 8)

What was your verdict on charge cooling vs intercooling on a g60 Yan?

:) Can I send an SOS your way for a handle? I'll send you some Christmas tokens. I'll order a cable on Monday.

Yeah,looks like there was some welding going on.This release has not felt right for a while.I can see why now. I'm going to order a new handle and cable. Hope they still sell them.If not i'll have to put an SOS out on the forum. :)

pooh.

Fun and games with my bonnet today which jammed shut. I have got it open but I think my release mechanism cable isn't functioning correctly. Could someone please tell me if my release handle looks complete? Has it been modified in anyway? Looks like someone has modified it to me :shrug: Or is it just damaged :shrug: :shrug: Also a picture of someones functioning release handle would be greatly received. :thumb right: thnks Robert.

ok actually thinking just above the gearbox area actually. :) Chossing aheatsink for something but ultimately I think I just have to experiment and be on the conservative side. I'll look have a look in Prod'sons thread.

*writes down bloody hot* Cheers guys. :)
