  1. Hmm. A nice looking motor. Can't help thinking its a Porshe in disguise though.. :scratch:
  2. Hi mate. Its been a long week and I'm feeling a bit lazy. Need sleep. Have a read of this and post up about anything you don't understand. http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=1784212 enjoy.
  3. dirtytorque

    High idle

    look for a vacmum leak.
  4. well done mate. I hope you don't need that fire extinguisher though. Would be a shame to torch all your hard work. :)
  5. i'll be working on mine over the winter,however I'm going to re-new the tax next month so I can have a play when I feel the need.And so that it is legal to drive so it can be tuned etc. Not going to use it as a daily drive though.
  6. between pin 1 + 3 = 1.15k ohm between pin 1 +2 = 3.53k ohms between pin 2 +3 = 2.33 k ohms ... ...
  7. I love how you have turned this around.
  8. It just makes sense to go MS rather than buying a genric chip which would not be optimum IMO. 16VT? I considered it for a while,but no. I'm going to stick with the charger.Just trying to make the best out of what I already have.

  10. Megasquirt. Build g6016v engine. Sell kidney to help pay for it.
  11. How are you incorporating your clocks into this. What I mean is what features of your clocks are dependent on your current ECU ? Actually,i'd be interested to hear what anyone who has gone down a similar route had to say on this matter;not just the beige one. Sorry Mr beige for hijacked post.You can have it back after . :)
  12. #1 Hammer in a spline socket and wrench out as usual or if all else fails use irwin bolt grippers,available from machinemart,screwfix etc.
  13. ...i'm thinking more along the lines of just having as much info as possible post install. So it would probably look a bit "back to the future ish :shock: I would hide it all after that once it was running stable.
  14. Thats really interesting. The colour coding helps.(Helped me anyway :D ) You can see at about 4.5k where it can't breath anymore and the torque starts to drop off. Incredible figures though for a g60 block. Thanks for sharing.
  15. Just so your well informed,removing the snorkel is said to remove a little low down grunt. I have never tried it on my G so I can't testify to this.. I run the intake as stock and will continue to do so for as long as i own my G60. Enjoy.
  16. Agreed. I've seen that. Was thinking about that myself. For me I hate not being able to have access to live engine parameters and sensor conditions like you can on a VR. The G60 ecu is very much a black box. For me,its got to be megasquirt next step. 8) So it will be nice to have easy access to engine parameters either via laptop or via a unit like megaview. Keep up the bad work. :D
  17. sooty deposits on your plugs will also indicate a rich mixture.
  18. 8) So your squirting yours rite?! Have you started that aspect of the install or are you going to worry about that after??
