Lysholm silencer kit - Please help bouncing idle

Recommended Posts

Hi There, can anyone help me, I recently purchased a second had silencer kit from someone in the states

and have installed it on my car (golf g60 front mount intercooler), I did not recieve the installation instructions, but everything seems very striaght forward.

however after fitting the kit, I started the car and the car will not idle correctly, it just bounces off idle between 1,000 rpma nd 2,500 rpm,

I have checked all the vacum hoses and everything is good, inlcluding the ecu vacum hose and teh vacum hose which goes to the recirc valve.

I am a little lost as to what is wrong here and also wondered if I had missed something important with regards the setup.

 

any help much appreciated

could it be an air leak, as I havent put gasket sealer on all the plates yet as it was a test fit, so I guess the charger could be sucking too much air ?, put tried to see if the recirc vale was open and didnt appear to be chucking much air out?

Hi Darren the MAP Sensor now reads from a blocked off boost return, ie the boost return is blocked off with a small outlet for the MAP sensor.

why is the throttle before the charger.?

 

the throttle body is before the charger to stop the lysholm sound escaping.

why would you want to stop it escaping???

trust me when youve had this kit for more than a month or two, the novelty of having your car sound like an F15 crossed with a fire engine soon wears off, especially when running silly pulley sizes.

everyone already looks anyway, i get so much abuse, always get told to slow down in the high street when im only doing 15mph, winds me up a treat, so roll on the new one! one of the 1st things i do when its fitted is go through the dartford tunnel and have a friend film it top gear style
