Hey now! Audi jabs hurt my feelings! I'm just having fun with your username, not insulting it like you plan to do with my schwaegen love.

 

Oh no no no... I know its fun and games bud!!! Hahaha I don't get butt hurt over stuff like that... me and my buddy here laugh our a$$es off with some of them and weve started a list!! hahaha and I didnt plan on hurting yours!! fine... ill just call you "cat burglar" instead of criminal! hahahah

 

"cat burglar"! I love it. And I was just messing too. I thought it would shine through. I know you're clowning doggg.

 

No worries here man!! Hahaha its all love!!

 

Picked up a spare short block last night to help shorten down time a week or so!
still scheduled for Feb. 4 but at least the block will be ready before then.

 

due to stupid weather delays.... dropping the car off this friday.

 

Dropped the car off! Time to play the waiting game.

 

if you had bothered to read my thread you'd know i am well above 220 now and everything you just posted above is wrong... IJS

 

Yes after 5000 pages of digging I found enlightened info lol.... We'll see what happens end of the month. Should be interesting.

 

Looks like Wed the car should be on the dyno

 

Post the video!

 

These few days are going sloooooooow.... Tuner has been kinda quiet dunno if thats a good thing or bad, but got a text at midnight saying "we decided to delete the balance shafts while were at it". completely forgot about this part haha.

 

That's cool. I wouldn't worry about it. It's winter. Of course they're sloooooow.

 

Well the dyno has been delayed... Welcome to the world of machine work.
The block is still with the machine shop, Head is ready to mate... and my tuner is getting a bit annoyed at the delay. Will chime in after the engine is back in the car.

 

Well it took my turbo tuff rods 2 days to get test fitted... go figure that one... talk about annoying.

 

Car is still down.... lol

Just an update, adding a flexfuel setup while the car is down. Be able to run E85 and pump gas any time and the ECU can adjust timing and fuel depending on ethanol.

 

Oh that sounds wonderfully erractic.

Im running the pro48 box

-Flex Fuel (ability to run any mixture of E85 with the ECU making on the fly adjustments to boost, spark, and fueling based on Ethanol content).
It will adjust accordingly.

I went with the proEFI system for various reasons:
My tuner is local and a dealer for the system.
The standalone system offers OEM fault code readings with your OBDII, along with failsafes to protect your engine.
The Flexfuel and Nitrous control options sold me as it is part of my build.

A return fuel system is highly recommended for the flex fuel setup, or additional components is neccessary to run it effectivly.

 

Do not expect this to pass any plug-in emissions tests. Of course the OBD2 port works because the factory ECU is still in place just like we do with the AEM EMS. Our AEM still allows OBD2 to work too. AEM also has all of the same features of flex fuel AND N2O as well. The BIG kudos to you is that your tuner is familiar with the setup and software. We tell people all the time to spend $$ on what your tuner is familiar with because it makes the entire process that much smoother tuning wise! GL and keep us posted.
