What cam?

Throwing additional codes?

Is it “drop in and play”,no problems?

How does she feel? Idle? Accel? Highway Speeds?

Performance gain?To what degree?

I'm curious...

Oh,how does she sound?

it was drop in type of deal once you put your cam gear back on it.

The car jsut feels more alive. I cant really tell the difference like i should be able to because i was driving the vr right b4. But sounds same.well maybe i just got used to the vr growl.I have new belt whine that i have to check out.maybe because im running no t'belt cover.

does feel more peppy. car lost weight and gained top end so it finally feels like a car.

codes- i havent checked them i already had a cell though since i deleted the SAI

Coolio,ive got cam plans,but for the time bein',im rootin' (and saving EVERY penny) for a 5speed with Cheat over at Rotors to Motors...Glad shes turning out for the best,i cannot wait to see that new face.

Maybe the ECU can be reprogrammed to except the 2ndary inj. delete..?My gf hasnt got one in her '01(with a damn 5speed,uber' jealous).

Btw,a fried pb&banana sandwich sounds good about now Justin ...Maybe a little bacon too,'cause its my birthday tuesday,why not right..?

Started earlier i created my own trim level since i didnt have a turbo

When anyone asks me i tell them its a 99 Beetle GT special edition.lol 1 of 1





Im keeping the TRB emblem so that one day when i turbo the 2.0 i can at least put it under the hood/lol

[turbos03]

now that's different, I'm digging it though.... I think you'll be able to pull it together with the Votex kit...

needs to be lower, but you already know that... and baby Jesus is still crying over those tail pipes...

here's a little something for your effort, keep up the good work man... dub-love brother

nto sayin it's the reason, but you should have changed the lifters with the cam. i was also wondering hwo that cherrybomb sounds, i've been thinkin about gettin a glasspack for my 2.0

[raymondlee]

i have a glass pack and a huge muffler so its pretty quiet but gives a good tone

[huck731]

wouldn't be because of the lifters, so don't fret there...but now is a good time to change them (as well as refresh the head a li'l bit).

i do have a stock aeg head with no sai ports if you need, i'll sell it cheap(ish).
