MK5 GTI - turbo pressure release + intake manifold motor issues

[kryten2001]

Well the intake cam kit (rev b) you can get from ECS tuning for $450 + shipping (I picked a brand new one up of ebay for $125 but that was a fluke). And a HPFP you can get from HPFP.com for about $500 + shipping. So I dont think its all that bad.

Fair enough, that's a good price on the cam (that's OEM?).. I was referring to OEM pricing on the fuel pumps. They're not cheap.. I'd certainly go a HPFP via a third party even if it's not in a tuned situation as well. Can't vouch for that particular pump, although I do hear many people run them.

I guess it's all academic until the OP pulls his follower/fuel pump out to see what's going on though. The low pressure condition could be anything, even a blocked filter or a dodgy low pressure pump (I don't recall whether he mentioned if it was low pressure fuel or high pressure fuel that was giving the problem....?)
