A friend who operated an industrial kiln in La Paz, Bolivia at 13,000 ft. mentioned once that due to the imperfect mixing of the O2 and N2 in the air and ...
What are the Pro/Cons of going with the Chips, Tuning Boxes, or the $2 Resistor? Ease of installation/removal (for those trips to the dealer for warranty...

What does the resistor mod do to your EGT? It should raise it, but how much? I hope somebody out here with a EGT can answer. In a message dated 5/1/2003...

I don't understand how this can be legal in Stock class. Seems like any modification of the engine management system is illegal. Can you provide the location...
Hello all, Just an experience I had. I convinced a friend of mine to try out venting on his 2000 Jetta TDI, since I'd done it a few times with my 2002 Golf...
Just an unfortunate coincidence. I've been venting for 13 months and 35k miles now with absolutely no problems. That is, unless venting caused my airbag light...
Hi if anyone has a site with resistor mod . A how to do it manual. It does sound better to try it before chipping. Maybe a how to could be added to the files...

Are the autocross classes based on last years results or engine displacement? It would seem that the diesels with huge torque would have it all over the ...
I would look into the clogged intake syndrome first. I also have heard of stock TDI's using the MAF from the 2.0 (I think its the 2.0) gas engine. In a message...
You can search the history of posts for my other notices and updates the the drama associated with my 2000 TDI Jetta. Here's what I know now.... There was...

I'm looking for a complete 1.6 TD engine with pump, turbo, etc. to transplant into my '85 Jetta. I would prefer an engine from a 1990-92 TD Jetta. I am in...
Your dealer doesn't see many TDI's, does he? This is a common occurance that any knowledgeable dealer worth his salt would have checked a LONG time ago. After ...
Lee, I've got a new Jetta with 3,000 miles on it what do you recommend for oil after the dealer changes the 5,000 mile oil? I also would like to know if...
Carbon build up is VERY common. Especially if you use the Castrol crap the dealership forces you to use. It's only API CF. CF is for off-road diesels using...
I am trying to be a casual observer here, and I agree there is a solution to minimizing the carbon build-up, but I am bothered by the fact that the implication...
There is a very simply way of engineering a closed loop CCV system that wouldn't clog the intake. Just install a "catch can" to let the oil vapors condense...
Dan, Good post ... and I am frustrated by the same thinking. I'm not an advocate of by passing emission controls that have been installed but on the other hand...
