Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

                  can you tell me a bit about the fuel system?

                  well its a bit of a black sheep...... half was made in sydney somewhere and the rest was made at CVWC, it has (beleived to be) Mk3 injectors sitting in audi cups which screw in to the manifold, custom fuel rail usie 8.0mm FE hose with an external pump located under the spare tyre well, this set up was choosen because im running microtechLT8 as fuel managment, the intake pipe is just 3" steel tube with pod filter, air flow sensor and a commodore TB boot to join the pipe to the VW TB.... and a aftermarket TPS switch dodgyly mounted on the VW throttle body.. this my friends is a true bitza engine bay, but hey it works and does the job well
