2000 Jetta ALH build thread

IQ will be around 6-7 when i get them in. I did talk to seth about getting a setup on mine but sourcing the nozzles are whats getting me right now. trying to buy a house right now has getting this car on the back burner for a couple days
 
Get another one !!!

currently I'm fighting a boost issue. way over what it should be for small injectors and a stage 3 max fueling tune. running over 35psi i would guess at 3/4 throttle, being i only have a 30 psi gauge. LOL I'm adjusting the wastegate before more driving.
 
UPDATE...

I bought a house.

SOOOOOOOO, this build is slowing down. No injectors yet and no plans of a retune till I get into the new house and the garage setup.
 
Congrats Bro!! I bought a new (to me) house back in April 2015. It does slow your roll a bit so I understand.
 
Thanks David!!

Here is the house. Located on 3.62 acres with 3 bedrooms.

Driveway is in the plans right now. Ordering lighting and then will be insulating too. It has a concrete floor and water in it too.

They are Art in Motion custom 3 piece wheels. I'm slightly insane I know this LOL
 
Now you need to donate your current wheels to my Golf since my turbo decided to eat itself Dustin. :bang :bang :bang :bang
 
Mitch, I'm removing those tires to go with a smaller tire. :D

Mark, If they dont sell Im installing them on my golf... Keep me posted on the turbo

Just hung up with my local guy... builder agreed to ship just a compressor wheel...will take a couple of days to get here across the border but I should be back up and running late next week I hope. :nail:
 
Thanks Jesse.

injectors, tune, egr delete, timing belt. then a south bend clutch. these are a complete blast slightly built over a cummins.
 
Previous owner put a tuner on it, straight piped it, and blocked off the egr. Pretty impressed with it so far. It's due for a belt change so I just ordered the parts to do it along with the tools. Also ordered the short shift kit. What injectors do you suggest? I don't have gauges in it yet, what kind of boost should they make stock? 45 mpg first tank, can't complain...
