Paradox

I have yet to come across anything that can keep up while pulling down the motorway on secondary in 5th......til I hit speed-cut LOL

Same goes for my TT wagon....may not have the take off, but makes catching up easy, especially down the motorway haha love the secondary pull

LOL I shall now call my TT wagon the Harlem Shake lol, brilliant.

Yup, agree there, st ftw! Lol will be relooming and converting the wagon once engine decides to pop (226kms and counting) Thinking about going back to factory bov, as was thinking that the bov contributed to the problem. Bloody temperamental tt Suby lol. The one I have is nice and tight, set reasonably hard (flutters at low boost haha) but I read that dumping the boost, rather then recirculating it as factory one does, doesn\'t help with the idle once dropping the revs.

Each to their own, rather the older tt motors lol mine still goes bloody well, keeps up with alot of cars that it shouldn\'t lol

Yea I hear ya, im leaving mine basically stock. Have only done manual conversion, mines chipped ecu (came with conversion) walbro pump, bh downpipes and full exhaust, pod filter and atmo dumping bov. That\'s engine wise. Thinking of going to a recirculating bov, or back to factory, as I hear the atmo bovs aren\'t the best. Also have bigger turbos but thinking of just leaving turbos as is.

The Eagle F1 Directional 5 is a very good tyre, can handle some abuse. I do tyres for a living, and all the holdens and fords that come in usually go for the Eagles. Unless they are cheap bastards and go for crap hiflys for something. GT Radial have an awesome new tyre out now though, the UHP1. Manager done a track day on them, and said they stick to the road like shit to a blanket. And as they are still new, most places with have them on special. Ask around for prices, as they are well worth the money.

I agree with MercuryFree, Achilles are shit, for want of a better word. I run Maxtrek Injens A1 tyres on my wagon, bloody good tyre for the money. Haven\'t had a problem at all with them

Figured that lol. Fixed the first problem, replaced on of the plugs, and fastened filter properly, no more issue there. Just the occasional low idle/stalling when clutching in

Yea was thinking that, obviously lol. Ripped pump back out just before and replaced the upper plug in the cradle that connects to the pump. While at it, noticed the fuel filter sock had fallen off the pump (lost the clip, didn\'t think much of it, have now fastened it properly, so won\'t be coming off in a hurry, touch wood lol) Would the filter coming off play any part in the situation?

Hey all, little problem. I have a tt gt legacy wagon. Not long replaced the fuel pump with a new walbro. Since then, every now and then it won\'t go. If I give the plug on top a wiggle or wee bang, then it fires back up, no probems. I have switched the pump cradle, as I thought it may have been a faulty plug, but it still does it. I\'m now a tad puzzled, as you\'d imagine. Also, occasionally when I clutch in at lights, or slowing down, reversing etc, the car tries to stall/idles low. Have had a read, and am leaning towards o2 sensor. Wondering if any other ideas were out there. Cheers in advance for any help

I have a mint upgrade pair of turbos that would suit your needs I was under the impression that if your primary was blown, then it would run like a bag of sh*t and not boost at all. My bg5a primary turbo isn\'t quiet when it spools, but it\'s healthy as. You won\'t feel anything from the turbo at idle, as no boost is being made (will show vacuum on idle on a boost gauge up until a certain point) My wagon seems to be a little hesitant on primary turbo if I put my foot up it from low rpm, then boom, away she goes. I put that down to plugs/coils.

Cheers for the reply Just ran some upper engine cleaner through. First test drive showed proper boost. Will take for proper drive tonight and report back. Only vacuum line i\'ve touched has been line 11 for the boost gauge. Wiped the cel code, hasn\'t come back since.

Cheers Marky, one of the only people to reply to my posts lol. I\'m going to run some upper engine cleaner this week. Hopefully sorts the problems.
